Why was it deleted?

Granola in a crumble sounds fine to me. Peas in cake though... I missed that one on the other thread.

In warm weather, peas go in a blender to make instant pea soup. Per person a bit of veg stock cube, about half a bowl of frozen peas, as much mint and/or chives as you like, add the other half bowl of boiling water, stir it a bit to let the peas thaw then blend. Heat up or chill down. Easy peas

DYAC peasy

AngryAttackKittens · 09/06/2018 00:36

I'm not seeing what's wrong with normal cake ingredients like flour or chocolate, fruit if you want to be fancy.

We once used frozen peas in gin and tonics instead of ice once. It was interesting. Better than warm gin and tonic.....

Yes I've done this. It's not bad with hendricks

These sprout scones - brussel sprouts or sprouted seeds?

thebewilderness · 09/06/2018 01:24

Frozen grapes are my favorite ice substitute.

Any interest in the recipe book idea?
It was unstoppable - like a train - as you can see!

We will always find a way Wink

Ah recipe books - 25 or so yes ago, in the the early days of t'interweb, I belonged to an isp called compuserve. Multiple forums on every imaginable topic. I belonged to the Women's issues forum. We got multiple and many trolls, all either ignored or dealt with using MN level humour. It was a golden age 😎. We also self published 2 cookbooks. I still have them 😺

Women keep having to deal with this shit. But we deal with it well.

We have used frozen blackcurrants as ice cubes. Love the idea of frozen grapes. Are they edible afterwards?

Now peas in a cake , there's an abomination. Might as well make a broccoli sponge

Ereshkigal · 09/06/2018 10:13

Yes when the grapes thaw out a bit you can eat them. But they're good when still a bit frozen.

BertrandRussell · 09/06/2018 10:18

I am going to use some frozen blackberries as ice cubes this evening. Can’t wait. With vodka or gin, do you think?

OP posts:
Ereshkigal · 09/06/2018 10:48

I think vodka.

BertrandRussell · 09/06/2018 10:58

Hmm. An alcoholic version of McDonalds frozen lemonade with vodka and blackberries. Anyone want to come round to mine tonight?

Wow sounds amazing!

LaSqrrl · 09/06/2018 13:57

I find it both disturbing, and nonsensical, to delete threads like that. Troll was refuted by some, and ignored by others. What is the big deal?

it was more the OP post and the thread overall.

So refuting anti-feminist trolls, and poking fun at them, also ignoring them, warrants thread deletion. Gotcha.

Every single time MN delete a thread, they devalue women's work and women's words. It is anti-feminist to the core. A pet peeve of mine.

Encapsulates exactly the impotent rage it gives me.

BertrandRussell · 09/06/2018 16:00

It all comes back to trusting women.

I eat my crumble plain with nothing on top at all...

Wait? What? You eat crumble by itself or fruit by itself? Confused

Smellyoulateralligater · 09/06/2018 18:16

I assumed no custard or cream etc waddle.

Waddlelikeapenguin · 09/06/2018 18:18

Grin thank you smell Grin
That makes more sense Grin

If only i knew where i left my brain....

thebewilderness · 09/06/2018 19:51

If the OP was a violation of talk guidelines it is inexcusable to leave it up day after day and then take it down when the accusations it contained were refuted.
This pattern has repeated many times. I still can't figure out if MNHQ objects to the refutations of misogynist claims or the frivolity that follows.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 09/06/2018 20:13

Custard.

COLD custard.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 09/06/2018 20:14

Tim foil hat on

There is definitely too much of a pattern for it to be a coincidence

thebewilderness · 09/06/2018 20:18

Just the vanilla custard with blueberries and chocolate leaves if you please, and hold the crumble.

thebewilderness · 09/06/2018 20:23

Chocolate leaves
Wash and dry waxy leaves such as camellia
Melt semi sweet chocolate
Spread chocolate on back of leaves
Put on parchment on tray in freezer for five to ten minutes depending on how thick you spread the chocolate
Gently peel off leaves and admire your gorgeous chocolate leaves

It seems to be after misogynist claims are refuted.

One or two of us also brought up the apparent increase in 'violent crimes by women', which is generally down to 'identity women'. I suspect this was the real reason.
