This is promising. I have some ideas already…
Yes, what the world needs is a seven course kale tasting menu.
Edit: some cunt has probably done this already.

I’m sure Heston Bloominheck will have *mastered the Kale.
*obviously involving liquid nitrogen, blow torches and terrifying electric currents

No, I don’t think I do, thank you.
Don’t give him ideas.
Jesus wept.
I’ll be washing my hair when that party happens.
Recipe makes 24 pies, so plenty of misery to go round.

You beat me to it.
This goes nice pan fried with sweet potato, mushrooms, shallots and some pasta, or a poached egg.
Bakes nicely too with veg and a cheese sauce

No mention of it in The Fat Duck Cookbook, so there’s hope yet.
Oh, posh kale.
Might give that a go.
Aldi only sell council estate kale though. Tesco is miles away.
Doctor changed my meds today. He’s doubled my dose of Amlodipine to 10mg and halved the Ramipril (now 2.5mg).
I think my BP is still on a downward trajectory, but the reduction is slow.
Let’s see what the new dosage does.

Roll up a twenty, schnuuuurrff up a nostril, job done.
An opera about kale.
A minor classic, sadly underappreciated by opera fans.
The same opera fans who have been happy to accept some of the most ridiculous plots ever concocted.
Example: Catalani’s La Wally (yeah, I know, but that’s her name), which ends with the hero and heroine being killed in an avalanche caused by her singling too loudly (well, maybe not quite that, but it’s pretty fucking ridiculous).
I’m not aware of any operatic references to kale, but I wouldn’t be in any way surprised if Cavolo Nero didn’t feature in some operatic fever dream, somewhere.
I love opera, but I struggle to eat a whole one. The exception would be a performance of La Traviata at Covent Garden (quite a few years ago) with Angela Gheorghiu, which I will never forget.
Rail that kale.
I was invited to Glyndebourne once to see this.
I had never been to an opera before and was quite excited.
A mate said to me ‘The heroine dies at the end’
I was quite annoyed and told him that I didn’t want any spoilers thankyouverymuch, and he said that is the plot for every opera and every ballet. 
So I have never bothered with any more classical stuff, if it is going to be that predictable.
