I'm strongly left handed myself and that got me curious of how many other lefties the arena has attracted.

Off Topic / It's nearly soup time of the year!« on: August 30, 2014, 07:38:39 AM »
I looove eating soup when it's dark and chilly outside. I also like trying new recipes. So could you share your favorite soup recipe with me?
To get you in the soup mood I'll share my favorite soup. I found this recipe at Chow for roasted butternut squash soup I think a year back. It's really foolproof and soooo yummy! A real comfort food. ![]() ![]() I've tweaked the ingredients a bit though to fit my taste: Instead of butter I often use walnut oil. Instead of Granny Smith apple I use one huge Jonagold apple. Instead of yellow onion I use shallots, about 3 bigger ones to 5 smaller ones. ![]() Instead of sage leaves I season my soup with a pinch of ground ginger, ground clove and ground nutmeg. Instead of heavy cream I use creme fraiche (or sour creme). This gives the soup a nice pinch of acidity and also makes it creamy. Your turn! Share your favorite soup with us and tell us a bit of why you like it so much. ![]() 95

Off Topic / Can anyone remember this 80's/early 90's animated movie?« on: April 20, 2014, 12:05:03 PM »
I'm asking for your help fellow 80's children to solve this childhood memory mystery! I have these vague memories of this animated movie I saw as a toddler. There were some colorful cute alien creatures and children helping them. They were looking for something from old ruins I think. The movie was located in a jungle with dark colors (at night I think). I can remember them crossing a small creek at some point.
Any ideas? ![]() 101

Please keep your identity a secret from the partner you send to! I would love to see people from different countries to join in so that we can do as much international pairings as possible. When putting your box together, try to find products that are unique to your country, local to your area and so on to make it interesting and exciting! Please avoid global brands (like Nestlé and Mars). BUDGET For this swap you'll be having a budget of 15 to 20 USD to use on tasty candies for your partner. 15 dollars is the minimum value of the swap box and must be used on candy in it's whole. I know we all love to spoil our partners, but to keep it fair for all participants try not to exceed the $20 top value. Non candy extras can be added but they will not count towards the swap budget. Please don't send more than $7 worth of extras, the candies should be the stars of this swap! ![]() CAN I JOIN? As per arena rules, you'll need to be at least 16 years of age to join.
