Broccoli and kohlrabi, when they are both full grown.....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.

Mmmmm, they sound delicious.

My hotmail is fine, Boco.

You could be like a forum bounty hunter franny.

Oh dammit why is mine broken?

avi#s here!
tell about house

Oh, no, Avi! What's happened?

Evenign

I am having my monthly carb fest so I think I'd better gloss over my f&v intake.

Isn;t it funny how all these veggie, fingerless glove wearing Smiths fans have reconnected over fruit and veg.

I had an old overcoat that had belonged to my Dad, and wore it over battered Levis, a white grandad shirt, fingerless gloves, and a baggy old v-neck jumper, and DMs.

This was before I went goth at aorund 15 and a half, and hennaed my hair and wore those skirts with sequins round the bottom, pointy black suede shoes and celtic cross earrings.

I think the earlier look was better.

Mango have you got some socks to put on

Evenin' all

FK I am carbfesting too... [hides] no stickers for TIger today

Oh no Avi!

Boco my hotmail working fine too.

Can I have creative sprout ideas please.

I have a whole sprout plant in my veg box and I must use them tomorrow.

fashion a helmet from cabbage leaves and then arrange a vegetable jousting event

I didn't wear fingerless gloves, go veggie or listen to the smiths. I'll get my coat.

Hello everybody.
How am I supposed to catch up with all that?, honestly a girl has a busy day and you lot nearly fill a thread up!

Well, I was a die-hard Kate Bush impressionist with long back-combed hair, pale make-up and long flowing skirts...so all thats changed now is the hair is about 1" long.

Avi, I am not sure if we are aquainted.......proffers hand....I rambled in about 4 months ago and now they can't get me to leave i'm hooked. s'nice to meet you.

Well, (sigh) it looks like i'm now about to be launched on the old interweb as an ''artist'' . Am trying to be demure and dignified but am actually grinning from ear to ear, and about to explode. Am setting up a profile so y'all can have a look.

Am eating well, lots of fruit, and veg based soups and chocolate cheesecake juices.

Talking of chocolate cheesecake, I am going into a city tomorrow , on my own, to do some sitting in coffee shops christmas shopping. Do you think I should have a little tag around my wrist?

so sorry about house stresses, it must be very wearing and frustrating.

As I am sure you are all die hard hip-hop fans here, I felt you should all hear this, it is completely sublime; (go on, you might be surprised!)
sublime

I just can't shut up...so will go and rant elsewhere.

I think I'm going a bit wqrong atm. I feel a bit weird.

Oh, but I went to parents evening to see dd1's tutor and I like her immensely (as I did before but I'd forgotten how nice she was) and she is so lovely and understanding of dd1 and her, well, clunkiness I suppose. And the horridness of some girls. But dd1's CAT results were completely off the scale which was cheering for her. Although she wants a good friend more than anything.
The henna strand test appears to have a blue-green sheen

I didn't wear fingerless gloves, go veggie or listen to the smiths either.

Smiles, take me with you!! [imploring]
I need a day like that.

Can't wait to see your profile!! You artist youi!

Ooooohhhh, pink, and Toot, mm tempted to linger,

geronimo!!! runs and leaps into pit, arms and legs flailing...........

Toot, if I could have a wish granted right now, it would give me the greatest pleasure to meet up with you for a cup of something...

Smiles, I hear yours, and I raise you this Just close your eyes and listen, it's like being stroked.

OOOhh, absolutely Toot, and 'Stir it up',
The bassline on that alone makes me quiver.

OOOH, I tried really hard to like the Smiths, but didn't. Wore Dad's old coat and fingerless gloves but no henna.

That's it

I did put lemon juice on my hair. Does that count? Went a funny colour and I just kept thinking of gin and tonic

Hello Avi - I have read you, but not met so to speak

Franny, I never know who is what or where, but then I don't roam general MN much, just come to the yurt/ pit

Toot, I would love to have coffee and cheesecake with you and Mou too - can I come, please ???

FK - Sprouts in bacon and chestnut - not very vegger but very lovely!

Avi, so sorry about your house, Guad what is happening to yours?

Finally got re-mortgage sorted after 8 weeks - god the stress

Daisy lies and listens to stroking music

At home right now we have wall to wall Dean Martin and "Baby it's cold out there"
