Fuck me there is some tasty stuff going on in this thread! :D


Recently when I had an influx of mangoes (I refuse to pay for them so tend to either have a shit load or none at all) I was putting a mango, ice, a little apple juice and a metric cavernous kunt load of vodka in a blender. So tasty and holy shit does it get you fucked up :D

Bunnings has 8L buckets.

Then go to Big W and check the kids toy section for sandpit toys, you know the really small buckets kids take to the beach, buy up.

They hold a decent amount of punch.

You don't to refill all the time and you can stay seated in the blow up kiddy pool all that much longer

While we're on the summer fruit theme, you can make a tasty salad with cubed watermelon, a little feta, generous amount of lime juice, heaps of roughly chopped mint and a tiny bit of olive oil.

Add prawns and a touch of chilli to that and you have the MOST divine summer salad out there

We recently made a Peach and Strawberry pie

Around 6 white peaches and 6 yellow peaches
1 punnet of strawberries.

Make shortcrust pastry:

100g butter
200g flour
~50g of icing sugar into the mix
2 eggs
pinch of salt

Add peaches, strawberries, some brown sugar and a splash of balsamic vinegar into the pie. Put pastry top on pie, eggwash the top and poke some holes in it. Bake in oven for ~40 minutes at 180°C

Eat with store-bought custard

*drool*

Oh and fruit smoothies are always good in Summer - at the moment breakfast in my house is an apple/raspberry/strawberry/blackberry/mango/banana smoothie, made with plain yoghurt and a bit of milk. And a sprig of mint if there is any in the house.

Tastes super yummy, is well good for you and is a much easier way to get your required dose of fruit than eating separate pieces.
