I think you could, sure. You can put just about anything in a quiche.

I know it won't be as nutritious, but I was worried about whether cauliflower would give off more water than broccoli when cooked err baked I mean.

I'd steam it, char it, then frittata it.

Random thought for today: Do you folks think I could substitute Cauliflower in place of Broccoli in a broccoli & cheddar quiche? The quiche was planned for dinner, but the Mrs. has grown an aversion to broccoli during pregnancy.

Yes you can. I'd probably roast the cauliflower just to give it a little extra something though and to stop it being to watery. Plus I love cauliflower roasted.

I had that same thought about the water. Perhaps roast it first?

Pretty much tastes the same to me, similar texture too. Does she like anything else green? Maybe you could add a touch of spinach for color and extra nutrition?

More weather whiplash for Texas.

I first came to this town in 1995 and I've lived here since 1999. In all that time I've never had to pay for parking my car until today. Car park - ฿20.00 (ten bob) for the day. Is this the thin end of the wedge? Will it be parking meters next?

You wanna try Sydney per night? Near Chinatown. Last time about 6 years ago $120 a day

Actially, instead of broccoli or cauliflower, she requested peppers and onions. So I did exactly that. It turned out pretty good too!

I am at home having a 'me' day.

Last sleep solely as a British citizen. Tomorrow is our citizenship ceremony and dual nationality from tomorrow pm....

I'm signing off for a day or so. There's a bottle of champagne with our name on it when we get home and I suspect internet and champagne won't mix.

Night

If anyone agrees with the principle of this I would be grateful if they would take a minute or two to sign it.
