Bees, Mystery, Bowling.

Just come across an article stating that Canadian beekeepers are filing a class action lawsuit suing the makers of neonicotinoid pesticides for $400 million. I would like to think this would do something to alleviate the plight of bees. As many of you know, this is something I am very concerned about.

OK, here’s another mystery for you. Tuesday I didn’t leave the apartment all day. When I went to bed, I went to remove my earrings, one had disappeared. Couldn’t find it anywhere. Luckily no monetary value but sentimental certainly. Made by a young friend in NC, including seed seed pearls. Having spent Tuesday night and Wednesday morning looking for my earring pulling up cushions, moving chairs, we quit and I went to get dressed. When I picked up my bra, guess what fell to the ground!! How it got there I cannot imagine. I still haven’t found the coleslaw though.

Wednesday we went for our usual bowling which was moderately good, but only moderately. This is the last time we will bowl on a Wednesday this year as our winter league starts next Monday. Good thing, we didn’t really enjoy bowling two days running. We ended up bowling downstairs too which I didn’t like. Nothing wrong with the alley but we felt a bit lonely at first as we were the only ones there. Then we were joined by some handicapped people and finally a family with three kids. The littlest kept giving piercing screams!!! Not sure what the other two were doing out of school today, maybe their school didn’t start yet or I guess they could be home schooled. Didn’t think of that before. Having got myself a bowling app for my android, I went to use it only to discover the battery was flat. I charged the android the other day so am surprised it got flat so quickly. A bowling acquaintance has an app for his iPhone which is much better than the one available for an android. In both cases not much in the way of 5 pin bowling apps anyway, all for 10 pin.

This recipe was touted for kids, but I think many adults would enjoy them too. Not sure why they say capsicum instead of pepper. The recipe came from Food.com

Yield: 24-36 pinwheels

"A great afternoon snack! If you don't have a favoured pizza sauce use tomato paste and add some dried Italian herbs. Can be served hot or cold...great for the lunch box."

Ingredients

• 1/2 small red capsicum, chopped finely
• 100 g ham or 100 g salami, chopped fine
• 1/2 cup cheese, grated
• 1/4 cup pizza sauce
• 2 sheets ready rolled puff pastry
• 
  

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 200c.
2. Combine the chopped capsicum, ham and cheese in bowl.
3. Spread the sauce onto each sheet of pastry, leaving a 2cm border along one side, and sprinkle the capsicum mixture over the top.
4. Roll up the pastry to enclose the filling (like a swiss roll), leaving the plain edge until last.
5. Brush the edge lightly with water and fold to seal.
6. Cut each roll into 1cm rounds (use serrated bread knife) and place on lined oven trays.
7. Bake for 20 min or until golden

Have a great day
