In My Kitchen: November 2012

I'm going focus this months "In My Kitchen" post on our new "Parsley Cam" as it's seriously the coolest thing happening in my kitchen at the moment. I wish I could try credit for it, but it was all The Boys doing if I'm honest (though I did bring the parsley home and place it on the windowsill - so I'm taking some credit)!


Parsley-cam is what happens when a (lovely) nerd (The Boy) and a slightly green-thumbed girl (moi) get a little too obsessed with their window sill parsley. A "parsley-cam/time-lapse photography" thingy gets set up in the kitchen so we see what our parsley gets up to all day whilst we're out at work.
 

I can no longer get to the toaster OR the kettle, but that's fine as we now get to our parsley as it causally leans into the sunlight.


I was VERY exited to come home after our first test run to find this Alice In Wonderland type note! This is our first "test run"...not too bad, though I do wish The Boy had bought a HD webcam thingy for such an important project!


Day 2 saw us faffing with the location of the parsley and the camera...and guess what? Nothing! I don't think that parsley moved...at all.  Check it out here - maybe your eagle eyes will spot something we didn't!

Head on over Celia's blog - Figjam + Lime Cordial - to see what everyone else is getting up to in their kitchen this month. They'll probably even been cooking and "stuff" like people are meant to do in kitchens!

PS - The Boy has advised me that he's now bidding on a HD webcam on eBay. Wish us luck with the auction!

  1. Loved it - the post, the parsley, the cam. I like to read these types of posts - ones that revolve around food but are not just a recipe or review.

  5. This has got to be the most different IMK that I have read! Your parsley looks happy, chop a bit off and see if it screams!

  6. Great to have some parsley on your window sill for those moments when you need it even if it doesn't do anything!
