Dumb Questions Thread

[lobs211]

I came here to see whats crackin but there isnt many threads I want to comment on - very serious business here!

So I start my own dumb question thread - which I probly be the only one asking - ha ha

But I wanna know: When you buy a roast chicken from the supermarket and theres some left - when do you put it in the fridge? When its still hot or do you leave it out to cool down or what?

And yes I am serious.............

Dance was being interpersonal.

Katy, my eldest used to complain at the table about mince dishes like chiili con carne & especially spag bol. The youngest used to join in wiith the complaining, then promptly eat her dinner up. Eldest ate it, a bit less enthusiastically.

They really would have starved if they didn't eat veges and fruit I think.

What do people who don't like veges eat for dinner? A steak on the plate by itself? With chips ? A fried vege.

My question is : Will I win the Lottery this week-end ?

NO, because I am.  

(thanks am)

I am also interested to hear if certain plants in a green house need to be polinated manually. Anyone?

Tomato plants are self pollinating.  The anthers release the pollen onto the stamen of its own flower. Another of Natures'  wonders.

Thanks for your reply lloydslights.  Let's hope we get more ripe tomatoes this year.

AM*3 ... my son WOULD eat a steak on a plate by itself for dinner ... IF it was big enough.

But, I'm not a big meat eater, so we always have lots of veges and about twice a week I cook meals with no meat, or very little.

The other day I made a pastry-free quiche ... lots of vegetables and a little bacon.

Today it's beef osso bucco for dinner ... I eat a bite or so of the falling off the bone tender delicious meat ... he gets the rest.

My question is ... why does it rain too much?

Well there you go, another not so dumb question answered. 

I was told by an old timer tomato grower that you should never store tomatoes in the fridge. It was the condition that you had to accept to accept the gifted tomatoes from him  😄

Dumb question for the day. 

What would possess parents to take a 9 year old to a shooting range to learn how to use automatic firearms?

Said 9 year old girl killed her instructor accidentally while parents recorded the action on phone.  Poor girl has to live with that forever on her conscience.
