  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

LOL Yep. I have (and had) some musical tastes that some might find surprising.

I used to LOVE Metallica. At the same time, I LOVE Pink Floyd, pre-Adrenalize Def Leppard, pre-Achtung Baby U2, Billy Joel and The Great Ludwig van (Beethoven).

I have a schizoprenic taste in music. It ranges from classical to rap to raggae to alternative/grunge to hair bands to industrial and techno to trip-hop and indie and everything inbetween. LOL


EXCEPT country. I hate country. Well, except for Neko Case. She's awesome.

Ditto on the country.

BTW, do you know what happens when you play a country song backwards? You get your dog back, your house back and your wife back! :D

It's years like these I'm happy to be on the new calendar... At least the St Peter & Paul fast isn't as long as Lent...
i just switched from New to Old calendar... but, my parents do most of the cooking so i don't know how much fasting i will be able to do

Julina - It won't help for the long fasts, but for Wednesdays and Fridays we have a thing in my family where I cook for everyone, and they usually don't object, especially when I throw tuna through their (otherwise vegan) pasta or something. I'm getting to be quite a good fasting cook.

It started off by being my Mum saying 'if you want to eat weird, you can cook your own food' but they noticed my food was good so they all eat it now :)

Speaking of which, I made the most awesome easy pumpkin soup tonight.

1kg (2lbs, roughly) butternut pumpkin (any pumpkin would probably do, to be honest, just make sure it's sweet), peeled and chopped into 1/2" cubes, or as close as you can get
2tbs red curry paste (from a jar - get the best you can find, it's always worth it)
270ml coconut cream - I use this much *in* the recipe but put more in a jug on the table
1/4 cup chopped coriander (cilantro)

Heat a reasonably large saucepan over medium heat, add pumpkin and curry paste, stir for 2 minutes, add coconut cream and stir for another 2 minutes, add 2 cups cold water. Bring to boil, then simmer, covered, for 20 minutes until pumpkin goes soft. Remove from heat and let cool slightly for 5min. Then use a blender/stick blender to process it until smooth, ladle into bowls, season with salt and pepper if desired (it doesn't need it, IMO) and top with more coconut cream and coriander/cilantro.

It's sweet and pumpkiny with a spicy but not too hot aftertaste. Even my 'how can you eat chilli!?!?!?!?!' sister quite happily ate it, but it was less bland than the usual pumpkin soup gets.
