Welcome to this week's casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It's for talking about anything that doesn't justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So what is everyone else doing with the glut of feijoas? Getting a little tired of eating them everyday

[–] liv@lemmy.nz 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If you're tired of feijoas you're tired of life.

In muffins

Stewed with icecream

Smoothies

I might be a little tired of life... smoothies sounds like the least effort, so just have to think what other ingredients will go well with it now

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

My wife does the stewing thing. The trick is that you stew so many you haven't eaten them by the time the next fejoa season comes around, then you stew some more. Repeat each year.

Feijoa jam time.

[–] liv@lemmy.nz 3 points 7 months ago

Pear and banana. There's something about brown skinned pears with feijoa that just works.

There are 4 heavy eaters in my house (everyone except me), so our problem is they aren't ripening fast enough 😆

We’ve been getting about 8 to 10 dropping everyday, plus some that people have been giving away. Three of us are eating them every night, but we still have two big bowls full!

I haven't checked my tree for a while actually.

Uh oh, you better watch out for those feijoa-stealing whores!

[–] AWOL_muppet@lemmy.nz 3 points 7 months ago

I'll take some!

I didn't even realize it was feijoa season until I went into the office earlier this week, and it seemed every other person had a bag full of em on their desk lol.

Went over to mum's earlier today, and she gave us some as well 😆
