Icebreakers time!

Icebreakers time!

Welcome forumites!!

If you’ve attended groups (through either Guided Recovery or RecoveryClub), then you’ll be familiar with all the fun lil icebreakers that the amazing facilitators come up with! 🧊

With our forums community growing each day, we thought it’d be a nice way to get to know each other and connect here too!

The mods will take turns posting a new icebreaker question each week!!

The first icebreaker question is... *insert drumroll*

Which frog do you relate to most at the moment and why? 🐸
*or if there's another frog that's not in the image, feel free to share or describe it!

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

This is such a thought provoking question - I love it!

The first one that came to mind is this gorgeous teapot in the shape of a turtle, who if you fill up too much dribbles tea 🤣 I don't use it often but love it to bits because it's loved, cute and I LOVE tea!

I would personally be a Coffee Pot @0ddsidian

always ready to have a cup of coffee with anyone at any time of the day or night 😍☕🍵

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

@0ddsidian I'd like to be a slow cooker.

Gets better as the day goes on!

Ends up yummy by dinner time.

Cooking Twine

Unassuming item, which gives mostly tiny improvement in niche settings (Like tying together chicken legs to roast)

But most people have no use for it

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

@Oaktree - My parents have a Thermomix. I would have picked muffin tray for you, because you're so warm but have so many facets ♥️

@TAB - I adore that description! It made me smile 😊

@SleeplessRaven - I haven't used an eggcup in probably a decade. Do you have any cute eggcups?

@Captain24 - I would also like to be a slotted spoon! I know I'm definitely not though. This is a bit outside the box, but I think you'd be a recipe book; likes some clarity, open to some adaptions and has a lot of goodness inside ♥️

@MissGremlin - Ah, the ol reliable kettle! I constantly forget that I've boiled the kettle, and if I DO remember that I've boiled it and have poured it into my favourite cup I then forget that I've done THAT step and I over-steep my tea!

@ccau_82 - I love how introspective and poetic your answer is!

@Lapis_Anteater - I reckon this is one of the more underrated tools. There's something comforting about a wooden spoon. Probably the fact that it's wooden haha

@Hquin - Great answer! I have three pairs of tongs. One is this super long pair that I think are meant to be for BBQ's, but I mostly use them to reach things that are deep in a high cupboard I can't reach or to turn off the smoke alarm when I accidently set it off.

@FearofUnknown - Very important; please describe what the perfectly cooked piece of toast looks like for you? How dark do we like our toast? 😂

@MatchaToad - Amazing! I have a tiny little rice cooker from Kmart that cooks just enough rice for two people. I think it's one of the best things I've purchased!

@avant-garde - The pyro made me laugh 🤣 I'm picking up what you're putting down. I really love the comment about the rolling pin and using up scraps to start again. Do you use fondant or bake often?

@ENKELI - If you're liking the cold, I can't imagine you're super keen on Summer? Especially in WA!

@AlwaysMyself - The only thing I could find that sounds like what you described is the image below, but that doesn't feel correct, and I use that one for spaghetti! For some reason I think you'd be a lovely patterned tea towel; reliable, supportive and ready to lend a hand, like to just hang out.

@TeaPositive - I need to look up this teapot! Do you have a favourite tea? How do you make your tea? Are we using milk? Any sugar? How long are we steeping the tea for?

@Shaz51 - This surprises me in no way. I absolutely knew you'd mention coffee. It was just a toss up between whether you'd pick a coffee pot or a cool mug to hold your coffee 😉

@Snowie - I once had someone pick the slow cooker answer because they said that they like that people would always be grateful for and happy to see them at the end of a long day. Seems appropriate for you ♥️

@DogMan79 - Such a creative answer! I use cooking twice for so many things. I sometimes use it in the garden to stake plants, and I've even used it in place of ribbon when wrapping presents before. Niche settings, but also super versatile.

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

ha ha @0ddsidian , It was a hard choice which one to pick , nearly picked 2 items 😂😂

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

@0ddsidian

I can do beautiful things with fondant and have the cake decorating colour spray thing

I love baking though and have made my own recipes in the past

In response to: Re: Icebreakers time!!!

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

Thanks @0ddsidian. That sounds great and positive. Just what I needed to hear at the moment.

Appreciate your thought on this

In response to: Re: Icebreakers time!!!

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

@0ddsidian ahhh see if I'm lucky that I remember that I've boiled the kettle and have gone as far as putting the water into my cup, I then forget I've made a coffee and it's gone cold by that time 😂

In response to: Re: Icebreakers time!!!

Re: Icebreakers time!!!

Oooh I LOVE this!!

@0ddsidian @MissGremlin @Captain24 @avant-garde @Shaz51 and anyone else floating by ~

I reckon I'd be an air fryer!

Loud, to the point some think is obnoxious, but I make a lotta tasty stuff super fast; not everyone ‘gets’ me – many see me from afar and think ‘What’s the point, it’s just an oven, but louder and taking up bench space’ but those who take me in see how awesome I am, how crispy my chips get, how versatile I can be - and they hold on forever (and may not shut up about me hehehe) 😉
