Bull Kelp Durvillaea potatorum grows prolifically on the reefs surrounding King Island, where the brown leathery fronds grow to a spectacular 8m. During storms, kelp plants are torn from the rocks and cast on the beaches. Such is the tenacious grip of the kelp "hold fast" or root, that often a piece of granite is broken off and remains attached to the root. Kelp can live 14 years or longer and can grow at the rate of 10-14cm a day.
Cast Bull Kelp is harvested on King Island. It is dried, crushed into granules, then shipped in containers to Scotland where alginates are extracted. It is probable that we use alginates every day, via products such as ice cream, drinks, salad dressings, detergents, toothpaste, paints, paper, dental, pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations.
A completely different use for kelp has been created by King Island Kelp Craft. The kelp is sculptured and sewn into decorative hats, figurines and animals. Articles have the look of leather or ceramics.
Imagine a KI beef salad with kelp dressing or brushing your teeth with kelpgate!
Collingwood should investigate kelp hats for legends members, it may stop some of the whinging!
Cooking a chicken casserole for dinner, with Brown rice. Dunno how many I'm feeding, could be just me could be 5 or 6.
Used a spicy bacon and chili tomato based spaghetti sauce as the sauce and fried up some big chunks of chicken breast, onion, yellow capsicum, zuchinni, broccoli, and bacon.
Serve with the brown rice from the rice cooker.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
Beware if you don't use the whole dish tonight.
Rice is one of the biggest causes of food poisoning in the world. Second hand rice that is. Consume quickly.

Cooked some chili tonight for me. No one wanted the leftovers so they stay in the fridge for tomorrow night.
Son had a taste of the sauce by wiping his finger across the spatula. He was about to say it wasn't hot when his eyebrows took off and he lost his voice.
The Captain was convinced, against her better judgement, to touch her little finger into the sauce on the spatula and try it. She said it tasted nice, then the chili hit and she spent the next 10 minutes swearing at the son.
Daughter had some for dinner rather than the leftovers (she normally avoids red meat) with corn chips and pronounced it tasty.
I'd just like to alert Weribee now. Watch out tomorrow morning.

After planning a BBQ for tonight yesterday, and buying the marinated skewers for said BBQ, then waking up today to hail, thunder, rain, wind etc, will now cook them in the pan with some fried rice. Haven't had fried rice for ages. Mmmm. Summer huh?? pfft
