Hate?<\/p>\n<p>I like <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Carrot\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Carrot\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Carrots<\/a>, and I like <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Brussels sprout\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Brussels_sprout\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Brussell sprouts<\/a>. But which one is better.. Fiiiiiggggghhhhttt.<\/p>\n<p>In all seriousness it would more than likely be carrots. The way I always love cooking them which is done with some nice fresh ones. Peeled, put into <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Simmering\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Simmering\" rel=\"wikipedia\">simmering<\/a> water, raise to the boil and then reduce to simmer again. Leave it for like 15mins, drain, put in some butter, cover and put back on the cooling hob, stick a lid on. Shake it about at bit and then then drain butterness into something, put down the carrots and then drizzle on top.<\/p>\n<p>Particularly nice with a home made mini pie. I made some really nice ones last week, I did it with stewed steak and beans. A weird combo but so nice. I used <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Puff pastry\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Puff_pastry\" rel=\"wikipedia\">puff pastry<\/a> for the tops and yum. I had enough of it left over (puff pastry) to make some the next day for dipping in soup.<\/p>\n<p>Today was good. I had first aid training at St Johns ambulance place. It is next door to the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"McVitie's\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/McVitie%27s\" rel=\"wikipedia\">McVities<\/a> factory and you could smell biscuits wafting in all day. It was lovely. It was good, I actually enjoyed it. I was the only one for the company going, so I made friends with the random 20 or so people there. Partly because I was <del>used<\/del> abused for every example. I had bandages on my head, arms, pretend to faint, example for recovery positions. It was amazing, they had an espresso maker which used fresh beans and it was free! I made a quadruple one and I was mimicking a hmming bird for the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Long story short, I got a free pen, certificate (in the post) and I&#8217;m insured if some scum decide to sue me should they not be happy I administered first aid!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I wonder how I will react if I see something happening in the street. I suppose that is something everyone asks. How will you react if someone was in need of help in the middle of the street? I hope I don&#8217;t freeze and I take charge. I certainly hope I dont <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Turning the other cheek\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Turning_the_other_cheek\" rel=\"wikipedia\">turn the other cheek<\/a> and pretend something isnt happening, like you hear about so often on the news.<\/p>\n<p>I guess you never know till you are tested!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is &#8220;Eat Your Vegetables Day.&#8221; What vegetable do you love to eat?
