  • Turnip and Zucchini Soup

    Ingredients

    • 2 onions, diced
    • 3 cloves garlic, chopped fine
    • 1/4 cup ginger, chopped fine
    • 8 cups turnips, (about 20 small turnips)
    • 4 medium zucchini, chopped
    • 1 can coconut milk
    • 1/2 bouillon cube
    • 2 oz lemon juice
    • 1 tbsp curry paste
    • Salt
    • Black pepper

    Instructions

    Set the instant pot to "Sauté".

    Sauté the onions and garlic with some olive oil until the onions are translucent.

    Chop the turnips and zucchini into 1/2" to 1" sized pieces. Add the turnips, zucchini, ginger, bouillon cube, salt, pepper, curry paste and coconut milk into the pot. Add water until only a half inch of veggies are not submerged. Mix together with a large spoon. Set the instant pot to "manual" high pressure for 12 minutes.

    Use the quick release to release the pressure. Add the lemon juice and blend with an immersion blender until smooth.

    @smokey @aaronpk @eli must be some feed then? I think as long as the timezone is taken care of in the feeds, it should not be an issue for the reader, especially if the responses originated at Micro.blog?

    Aaron Parecki
    My replies are all sent via webmention from my website, not created in micro.blog. I’m guessing that’s where the discrepancy is.

    @aaronpk why should this conversation be all broken? I see Aaron’s replies first and @eli’s questions. 🤔 cc @manton

    Aaron Parecki
    Looks like it got confused about the timezone?

    @aaronpk is ther 12" MacBook your everyday driver?

    Aaron Parecki
    Yeah that’s my main machine. I also have a 13” pro that I use for video editing and audio work. It handles final cut better than the 12” tho I can do video on the 12” in a pinch. It’s also nice to have a computer without all my normal distractions.

  • TV show writers: please edit your story arcs to the (highly variable) attention span of my cat. I put a show on to give my cat a lap, then she leaves mid-episode, and somehow I end up staying to watch the rest, even though I meant to get up promptly.

    @aaronpk do you need to do anything special to push that many pixels?

    Aaron Parecki
    It’s actually only half the pixels of a 4K display, so my 12” MacBook can drive it fine. It’s 3440x1440.

    @aaronpk that monitor is bananas

    Aaron Parecki
    Why have two monitors when you could just have one really really wide one instead!

  • I was expecting maybe 10 people at the microblogging “deep dive” this afternoon. After all, I was scheduled opposite the great tech superstar @ttscoff! But instead the room was full, with about 40 people. It was exciting to see this much interest in microblogging.

    Decided that Saturday would be a good day to build my new standing desk! Took all morning to straighten up my office enough to disassemble my current desk! #standingdesk #cleaning #homeoffice

    I have had more than one male colleague sincerely ask whether a certain behavior is mansplaining. Since apparently this is hard to figure out, I made one of them a chart.
