Cooking with Quinoa: The Supergrain - Rena Patten

New Holland, 2011. Hardback, 192 pages, excellent condition

Quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) is a grain, but not just any grain. It is considered to be almost a complete food. It is very high in protein, full of vitamins, gluten- and wheat-free, cholesterol-free and usually organic. And it is simply delicious.

In the kitchen, quinoa has a huge range of uses and lends itself beautifully to so many dishes. When cooked, it has a very delicate texture and is lovely in soups and sweets, and makes wonderful salads, pasta, breads and delicious vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals. It is simple to prepare, easy to digest and most enjoyable to eat

Price: $10

I have a mature, approx 15yo, Ponytail Palm (Beaucarnea) that I'm giving away.

It's very healthy and about 1.2 metres tall. Plants of this size and maturity usually retail for >$200 but it's free to a good home.

It has outgrown its existing pot (literally) and needs to be repotted either in the garden or in a new pot. Pick up is from Leamington. It's quite heavy so may need two people.

Painted glass bottles make a stylish display on their own or with the addition of dried foliage. The paint is on the inside so they still have that lovely glass sheen. Use Resene testpots to co-ordinate with your home's colour palette.
