Its Autumn Now, And Time To

[Maydup]

Time to put the sprouts on a low heat! Leave it much later and they won't smell have as good as they could.

I am going to wait another week before doing this important task. I go to Egypt on Monday and they might boil dry and set the house on fire.

I used to hate sprouts until I realised it was because they are normally way over cooked which makes the strong/ smell taste. Now I just drop them into boiling salted water for 2 mins max. They taste great!
Do you realise overcooking sprouts produces sulphur based compounds that are the same as the ones that make farts smell ?

Still summer until the 22nd of September. But my tactic is simply not to put sprouts on for Xmas; it saves pushing them around the dinner plate on the day, and then scraping them into the waste bin.

Failing to cook them properly won't help; keeping them as pet food is going to be even worse, were that even possible.

Oh goodness, that's being unemployed for you, time rushes by and it's the 23rd ! How did that happen ?

How about a cauliflower and sprout cheese? My favourite as a Christmas side dish. I could eat that now; its just a shame the sprouts aren't ready.
