Hello Ladies,
Back home again after a great caravan trip to WA, relaxing and a lot of fun!
Now back to business!
I have pulled out an old favourite from the recipe collection, tasty and slow but easy.
Slow Cooker Indian Beef Curry.
1 kg gravy beef, diced, 1 x 400g tin diced tomatoes,
2 onions, diced, 1/2 tsp salt,
1 tsp ground coriander, 1 tsp ground cumin,
1/2 tsp chilli powder, 1/2 tsp grated ginger,
1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp paprika,
1/2 tsp turmeric.
Spray a large pan with oil, brown the beef and onion, then add to the slow cooker.
In a mixing bowl combine the rest of the ingredients and mix till well combined,
then pour over the beef and onions. Cover and cook on high for 4-6 hours, or on low
for 8 hours.
Stir through 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley, and serve with steamed rice.
This is a large recipe (6-8 serves), which can be halved. Alternatively, it freezes
well.
oooo0000oooo
A bit of trivia for those who study the English language today;
· “Remember I before E except after C”? And except when your foreign neigh bour Keith receives eight beige sleighs from feisty caffeinated weightlifters!
· No dictionary has ever been able to define the difference between “complete”,
and “finished”. At a linguistic conference participants were asked to outline
their thoughts on the subject, and here was the winning entry. “When you mar ry the right woman you are “complete”, but if you marry the wrong one you are
“finished”. But if the right woman catches you with the wrong woman, you are
“completely finished”. The winner received a standing ovation.
A few more page fillers:
· I sometimes wonder what ever happened to those people who asked me for di rections.
· Having cats is a bit like babysitting drunk friends. Someone’s always hungry,
puking, yelling, picking fights, then 15 minutes later back for cuddles like noth ing happened.
· I love Temu! I bought myself a senior’s GPS. Not only does it tell me how to
get to my destination, it tells me why I want to go there!
· I’m a person who wants to do lots of things trapped in a body that doesn’t.
· Yes, we still have a landline, it’s called a phone finder!
On that note.
Cheers
Ruth.

50th Year Anniversary Lunch - 18/5/2025
Our long awaited “50” yr dinner started with rays of sunshine beaming though
Club Marion’s floor to ceiling windows on to classic round tables.
Owen welcomed 70 guests and especially “50 year” members, who were then
presented with special badges by Michael Flaherty. Life members were also
recognized – all for their service.
A Short history of our club by Owen was followed by a large screen presenta tion by foundation member Chris Duncan. After main course, Christine Gra ham and helpers cut and served her “outstanding” 50th Cake!
The President then urged all to reminisce, then a truly momentous exchange
occurred where so many names of “past beloved” members were called out in
appreciation of their service.
Door prizes and others were given out and after much chatter and mixing
about the talks our members, some of whom had travelled from as far as Vic tor Harbor, Mannum, Gawler, Kangarilla, Ironbank, started leaving after a tru ly enjoyable afternoon.
