Landing by helicopter above the Franz Josef Glacier in NZ, pretty special when I live in sunny Queensland!

I must be old or something, I would never consider sitting down at a cafe or restaurant if I’d bought something from a takeaway menu! It makes sense to me to take my food/drink and go!

You’re welcome!

Wow! Five eggs. Eggs are like hen’s teeth in my local area.

My volunteer job is my hobby, I visit a 9 year old girl weekly, who lives in foster care. When outdoors, we play frisbees, take walks, even jump on the trampoline!

No big deal, I buy it for $5 on special, and none of it goes to waste! I’ve seen more expensive dips.

It is expensive, I grab it when it’s on special, there’s plenty left for bikkies, cheese, pate and dips! And a bottle of bubbly. We treat ourselves every now and then, seeing we rarely eat out!

With the airfryer chicken, you have to be careful that the drumsticks are cooked right through. Seems like the end has dropped off my recipe, as I had another 5 minutes of airfrying, giving it 25 minutes. Just 20 minutes is not long enough. To test, you could use a thermometer (I don’t own one).

I’m sure you could replace pate with dip (eg hommus). I actually make my own hommus, and add chilli, so I might try that sometime instead of using pate.

My staple dinner when “batching”, but always added some chilli, and a piece of fish. Perfect. A complete meal in a pan.

“Tread your own path”. Just looking at my records: in 2024 I collected the following in supermarket gift cards - $235 from Octopus; $100 from Purkle; $100 from Connect Panel (news.com.au). I also won $14,000 worth of prizes from competitions.

Constructive comment would be to try a recipe, and then have something to say. I wouldn’t be so publicly rude to knock a recipe that someone has posted, without trying it. If I wasn’t interested in trying it, I’d keep my views to myself.

Thanks readers, lovely to read your comments. Let me reply: 1. Try my recipe, with one drumstick at a diagonal in your slow cooker, to serve two. I’m not reading here that anyone commenting has tried my recipe. My recipe is the crux of my post! 2. “Serving guides” are fine, but I have cooked...

Just before my 50th bday, I raced my hubby to the top of Ayers Rock (Uluru), because he was always telling me how unfit I was, but I knew that wasn’t true! I must say, it was hard going, my knees have never been the same since!

Obviously you have tried my slow cooker turkey drumstick recipe, which is great that you have! The meat is absolutely succulent, nothing dried/shrivelled about the turkey meat (eg like BBQ’d or oven roasted turkey). There is plenty of meat for two, we serve it with roasted vegetables and gravy...

Yummy!!

That’s a bit rude of the cinema!!

Same here, i have numbers to mark off my card, that are not numbers in the daily draw. Has been happening for a few days

Thanks for your input. I really think you are missing a few points I have made: 1 I suggested (using The Barefoot Investor's quote) "Tread your own path" - my articles are to help people, and people can make their own choices 2 I have re-iterated many times to "Read the Terms & Conditions" 3 I...
