mock roo-bq #2

I'll bet my puppy dog that (unless you were present) that title means nothing to you. Right? Right.

Well! Let me 'splain. Last year, my current residence (which at the time was not my residence) was lucky enough to play host to the first annual "mock roo-bq", basically (very basically) involving the conjuring up of (a process both lengthy and dedicated) mock kangaroo! The idea was cooked up (ha) by Philly visitors, Joe and Ryan (apparently more commonly known as Ryjoe), and with Joe back in town again (with my new friend Shannon replacing Ryan - Shanjoe), a second annual mock r00-bq was in order.

Having missed the first roo-bq (and cursing myself eternally from that day forth), i could barely get through my six hour workday without taking my mind off the mock marsupial delights awaiting me at home.

Shannon, Joe and the ever amazing Sarah put the majority of the bbq together, I clumsily knocked together a couple of salads, and we had some amazing potluck contributions in the form of potato salads (we had three all up! carblicious!), a limey lemongrassy julienned salad with tempeh (who the eff made that and why aren't we married?), and cupcakes. Dear, sweet cupcakes made by dear, sweet Chad, in the forms of mint choc and peanut butter chocolate, and you can bet your sweet muffin that I ate one of each.

I cant really contribute any recipes because, well, I was anticipatorily wriggling around in my chair at work whilst most everything was being done, but I can contribute photos. Not even taken by myself. All credit to Sarah! (ps. I'm buying a camera tomorrow!)

So. Lookit.

Check the mock roo nestled in the bottom corner. It's formation involved a three stage process utilising wheat gluten - boiling, baking and bbqing. The three b's of delicious. Atop are both prawn and chicken kebabs, both later liberally (very liberally) doused in Shannon's amazing satay sauce.

Photobucket

Action shot of the innards of a mock roo burger. Probably should put an MA 18+ rating on this one.

Photobucket

Endless kebabs. Three days after this photo was taken, I found a tray of them, forgotten about and hiding in the oven, all shrivelled and useless and good for nothing. My heart, it weeps for their lost deliciousness.

Photobucket

My pasta salad in the makings. Yeah ok, I know it's not mock, scroll on past, I don't mind.

Photobucket

Fixings for the best bbq in existence. Observe also the pink mock ham, from a ham tube/log/whatever courtesy of Vincent's Vegetarian in Footscray.

Photobucket

And responsible for all of the above? The ever babelicious Shannon and Joe Fox! The only thing left to figure out is whether they should move here, or I should move there? Ah, deliciouns. Oh, i mean, delicious decisions.

Shoes specially made for losing weight are available today and [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]MBT[/URL][/B] can be quite effective. These shoes have been out for a while and some companies have risen to the top [B]discount mbt shoes[/B] demonstrated that they can provide a quality product to consumers. One [U]mbt shoes review[/U] such type of these shoes is the MBT Shoe made by a company called Swiss Masai. In case you [U][B]mbt shoes best prices[/U][/B] did not MBT stands for Masai Barefoot Technology. In this write up we want to take a [U]mbt shoes best prices[/U] closer look at these special shoes.

The development and idea behind the MBT shoe design is quite [U][B]footwear etc[/U][/B] interesting. What the shoe attempts to do is structure the shape of the shoe so [U]mbt shoes clearance[/U] that it simulates walking on sand. Specifically, the they want to attempt to make it as if you are walking [U]mbt sandals[/U] along the natural sand environment of the Masai in Kenya. Sports trainers have known for quite a while now [U]mbt shoes review[/U] that working out on dry sand is a great way to get in excellent cardiovascular condition. As you [U]MBT shoes[/U] walk on sand it creates an uneven surface on your feet and it forces you to shift your center of gravity to [U]mbt sneakers[/U] an unnatural position. Your body compensates for this by using several different [B]MBT[/B] muscle groups in your feet, calves, thighs, and torso that you would not use wearing typical shoes. This is the ideas [U]MBT[/U] behind the MBT weight loss shoes and it does seem to [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]mbt walking shoes[/URL][/B] work for some people.

More specifically, MBT makes several positive claims [U]MBT shoes[/U] and benefits from wearing their shoes. They will take muscle groups [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] not normally used in walking and make them active. The shoes will give you a better posture, and a more effective [U][B]mbt shoes clearance[/U][/B] gait when walking with or without the shoes. It can [B]mbt discount shoes[/B] potentially help you with problems you may have with your back, hips, legs, and feet. The [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] shoes can help you recover from injuries to your [B]mbt shoes cheap[/B] tendons, joints, ligaments, or muscles. The shoes are also designed to alleviate tension and stress [U]mbt shoes best prices[/U] on your lower joints.

Another particular claim [B]mbt shoes review[/B] of MBT is that is you walk one mile in these weight [U][B]mbt discount shoes[/U][/B] loss shoes it will be as if you walked two miles in ordinary shoes, and you will burn equivalent calories. One thing [B]mbt shoes review[/B] is for sure, users find that after the first few [B]MBT shoes[/B] times they walk in the shoes their calf and thigh muscles are sore. Also, while you are [U]mbt shoes sale[/U] just starting to use the shoes they will feel uncomfortable [U]mbt sandals[/U] but that feeling goes away after twenty [U]MBT[/U] minutes or so. Once you get used to the feel of the shoes users find that they can [U][B]buy mbt shoes[/U][/B] walk effortlessly and comfortably. The shape of the sole is designed [U][B]mbt walking shoes[/U][/B] to make you walk with your back straight and your [B]mbt sneakers[/B] stomach flat, and your whole stride shortens up and quickens. These are [U][B]mbt shoes sale[/U][/B] the major effects that owners of MBT shoes [U][B]MBT shoes[/U][/B] experience.
