Good morning everyone (including green men) from lure of the azure in the not quite dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of vegetable stir fry with jackfruit came in at a “well you have to try these things” 6.2 this am
Jackfruit - star of that carry on film, “Carry On Jack” - a darker than dark comedy about meat substitutes, filmed in black and white by Ingmar Bergman. The plot centres around a couple of manic foragers, both dressed like Crocodile Dundee, sat facing each other at a table, trying individual portions of hyped up meat alternatives that have been presented in the shape of farm animals sculptured by Grayson Perry, throwing their still full plates into a large dustbin and then shouting out to their blind, one legged butler, “Carry on Jack”.
I don’t even remember how that tin of Jackfruit sneaked into the larder - there is also a tin of “heart of palm” in there also that must have been purchased by chimp one day when it escaped down the “crazy yet edible” isle in the supermarket. Luckily that particular product can be treated like calamari so I might have a go at that at some point and then that will be another daft item on the TO DONE list.
On the home front, Escape Plan 3: Silent Bob the hedgehog has now trundled off to pastures new. Having discovered the hole in our next door neighbours fence we popped her (or possibly him, or Ms) right in front of it when it got dark and, with the speed of a striking slug, off it jolly well went. At some point. All very hush hush.
@gennepher - first though was a very large avent-garde bird but green man fits the bill. Avent-garde birds are apt to get folk into trouble especially when flitting about between nouns and adjectives.
Have the very best day that you can, clapping tonight, avoid the dustbin lid and fireworks crowd if you can, koffy calls.
