Quicklinks

Posted by kathryn in Miscellanea

Time for some quicklinks I think:

  • Vegetable infographic: Firstly, I love the infographic above showing the variety there is in the vegetable world. It’s a thing of beauty which I can get lost in. In fact I’ve ordered a copy for our food wall at clinic
  • A few blog posts ago I talked about acceptance and then I saw this piece, which made me pause. I find it remarkable and remarkably brave and more broadly, sad how rare and brave this level of honesty and acceptance is.
  • Slow cooked kale: I love the look of this recipe which Jill from The Well Intentioned Cook pointed to on Twitter. Kale slow cooked with rosemary, onions and garlic would be quite wonderful.
  • Omega 3s: Useful piece from Choice about Omega 3s – sources, supplements and whether they are over-hyped.
  • Beetroot (of course): An amazing looking salad, containing many of my favourite foods – beetroot, raspberries, pomegranate molasses and figs. Yum, yum.
  • Eating before exercise: Something I get asked a lot, should you eat before or after exercise, for more effective fat loss. Report on an interesting study. There’s some technical stuff in there, but a good summary of what to do right at the end.
  • Pear and Vanilla Sorbet: I recently won an ice cream machine and have been having great fun with it. The next on my list is this recipe for pear and vanilla sorbet which I spotted the other day.
  • Book report: Lovely review from Lucy on our An Honest Kitchen blog of a book called Japanese Farm Food.

An interesting and diverse collection as usual, Kathryn. Thank you! It’s a treat for me to dip into these links this evening as I take a work break. (Productive procrastination, I call it.) Oh, but I do love that infographic and am tempted to order one for my wall at home. All the recipes sound delicious — my first kale seedlings emerged yesterday so I I’ve marked Jill’s recipe to try first. I’m off now to read Lucy’s book review and a few other posts on the An Honest Kitchen blog. I’m sure all this delicious reading will inspire me to get down to my own writing at some point this evening.

I have had my eye on that vegetable poster too Kathryn but don’t have a permanent clinic room. Though looking up there’s whopping great blanks space above my desk …

WOW. Awesome, awesome infographic. Filing away that Kale recipe as well for next time I’m able to come up with a batch.
