Little tongues and big beans.

Linguine with broad beans.

Take some podded broad beans - fresh or frozen. Peel off the outer skin (you needn't bother if using young, fresh ones).
Sweat them gently in a little olive oil, with the addition of a couple of sprigs of freshy thyme and a couple of whole garlic cloves. (one day I'm planning to write a book about herbs called 'Its About Thyme').
Remove the garlic and tyme and add a squeeze of lemon juice and a shredded mint leaf or two.
Toss with cooked linguine and some crumbled ricotta. (Actually...instead of ricotta I've been using a mild, soft Welsh goat's cheese).

Philosophical Poser #2: Two penguins meet on an iceberg. One says to the other, "You look like you're wearing a tuxedo." The other one says, "Maybe I am!"

Penguin walks into a bar, asks the barman, "Has my brother been in?" "Dunno," says the barman, "What does he look like?"
