Neil’s Original Thought of the Day – Saving the Planet
“Saving the Planet” is very commendable but living in a disgusting one is not pleasant.
Where once pots of geraniums etc adourned our nations doorsteps, there are now (in the area I live) green recycling boxes full of empty beer cans and wine bottles, swarming with wasps and flies.
Jerusalem artichokes are also known as sunroots or sunchokes. The jerusalem artichoke plant is a species of the sunflower native to eastern America which produces these edible tubers. They have a sweet, nutty flavour, reminiscent of water chestnuts.Jerusalem artichokes contain vitamin C, phosphorus and potassium and are a very good source of iron.
This is my favourite jerusalem artichoke dish: Roasted Jerusalem Artichokes
Ingredients
500g/1lb 1½oz Jerusalem artichokes, peeled
25g/1oz unsalted butter
100g/3½oz fresh breadcrumbs

Isn’t there enough news this week?
Fern Brittain has made the press again!
The press show her on the beach in a bikini – both before and after her weight loss.
She looks absolutely fanastic now – but why do we have to keep reading about her stomach operation. As I have said before – the operation was her choice and her personal business.
Should she think about forming a group – Fern and her Gastric Band!!!

Neil’s Original Thought of the Day
When you see a large bird swoop from the sky, its talons stretched as it dives into the river, emerging with a shining salmon, remember – this doesn’t mean you can keep your cod next to the chicken in the fridge!
Why do they call it a rubber plant? I’ve just tried correcting an answer in my crossword and the page went all green.
