Kale and peas softly with his song - 10 / 10 thread

[FrannyandZooey]

For anyone who wants a boost to their general health. The suggested goals are:

EAT 10 PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES EVERY DAY - if you don't usually eat much fruit and veg I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 10 MINUTES OF EXERCISE EVERY DAY - can be yoga, stretching or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 10 minutes is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

There are no restrictions on what you eat so long as you get your 10 fruit and veg as well. The focus is not on weight loss but on improving our energy levels and hopefully our general mood and well-being. Sign up below and post here to tell us how you're getting on and how you are feeling.

Basic guidance on what constitutes a portion of fruit and veg here and you can download more detailed information by following the link at the very bottom of the page

will there be maggots in it?

oh god no! it's just kind of rotted food as in compost
it's not something you'd particularly want to put your hands in but it's sort of CLEAN compost

oh

sweetcorn

= 10

ta-dah

phew at no maggots

I am not squeamish about much but I make a large exception for maggots.

I also had courgettes and Haloumi. If you don't eat it while it's hot it becomes really squeaky and rubbery doesn't it? Like chewing, um, something rubbery, can't think of anything, um, a balloon?

Note to self - don't read thread whilst eating dinner. TooT and her pus filled head and Franny's rotting food all over the kitchen. EEEWWWWWW

But speaking of maggots...... I've been fishing this afternoon

how revolting
hope you are excused from crisis by pregnancy
mrs tootles have emailed you
UR won't go into details but people just ARE and it's just a pita
but we are very lucky so that's my moan and finished

toast yes but brown grainy and nutty too.. am hoping to get a breadmaker to take with us as i think local bread is usually sweet

who eats carrot bread on here? someone does I'm sure

sorry
I obviously didn't explain too well
it's not terrifying maggoty sort of rotten
Boco could tell you properly

I need to look at Toot's granpa

hi pink i learned yesterday that maggots are "gentles" to fisherfolk

learned this off an i'm sorry I haven't a Clue CD

what did you catch and did you throw it back

I am on a murderous rampage
threads dying like the flies in fran's kitchen

The boy I took cought about half a dozen the size of goldfish, and I caught a big 'un (but he had to reel it in for me!)

peas, mushrooms, cuc, tomato

Contemplating chocolate cake with ice cream.

when you have finished contemplating it pass it over here

avi I hope he's alright, how worrying
i love the lifeboat, was brought up in coastal town, they are such heroes and all voluntary
what was your bigun pink, am not fan of fishing (ex hunt sab here) but there is something mesmerising about the old flemish boys in the park in their tents
fran are you AT LAST making a nest lined with chocolate
am saying goodnight early, tis exhausting being on strike
xxx night fruiters

Hello

I was feeling crap this morning so remembered to take my Kiki and I really think it picked me up. I managed to do stuff this afternoon! I need an early night though.

I bought some lavender today and was out in the garden earlier this evening putting them in my new pots just as it was beginning to rain lightly. Sometimes it is lovely being out in the rain and it made the lavender smell a more intense kind of divine. I feel quite chilled now

Hello

There are lots of interesting and diverse things on this thread tonight and I have enjoyed reading them all.

Thought I'd just say that.

Raisins, dried apricots cranberries (1)
Strawbs & Rasps (2)
Salad leaves & green beans (2)
More rasps (1)
Salad leaves, carrot, cucumber, cherry toms, avocado, red onion (amount-wise, probably 3 - 4)

Oh and yoga

I may have just squeezed 10 I reckon...woooo

Ooh Avi I will have a look

I meant my navy scarf. I found Trellis and messaged you over there

Are you two being cryptic or am I being dim?
