I Don't know how big squash balls are. 
link
2kg of roasting potatoes
8 medium parsnips
1 bulb of garlic
Small handful of rosemary
Small handful of thyme
Honey
Extra virgin olive oil
These potatoes are a superb with my Cheeky Christmas turkey with braised leeks and the best wine gravy recipe.
Method
Preheat your oven to 200C/fan180C/gas 6.
Peel your potatoes and parsnips. Cut your parsnips in half and put to one side. Chop the potatoes up into kinda squash-ball-sized pieces. Place into a pot of cold, seasoned water, and bring to the boil. As soon as it begins to simmer, add your parsnips and par-cook for 5 minutes, then drain well. When they?ve steamed dry, put them into a large roasting tray and push the potatoes to one side and the parsnips to the other.
Bash your bulb of garlic and, leaving the skins on, sprinkle over the veg. Then, sprinkle the potatoes with the rosemary and the parsnips with the thyme and some honey. Then drizzle enough olive oil over to coat the veg lightly. Then, with your fingers, almost dress the parsnips in all the lovely flavour and keep to one side, and do the same for the potatoes.
Season well to taste, and place in the oven for around 30 minutes or until golden and crisp. Feel free to cook earlier and reheat later; they?ll still taste fantastic.

Ever notice Englishmen only play villians in Hollywood (apart from Colin Firth obviously)
What about IRISH talent?
The country that brought you Colin Farrell, Liam Neeson, Pierce Brosnan...mmmmmmmmmm Pierce Brosnan, that voice, those eyes, Remington Steele!

But isn't it fun to like something you aren't? A lot of women like foreign men and vice versa. (hub likes Asian women). I have had a 4 year crush on Chris Martin- those eyes!
I guess if we are going to talk about men we should at least talk about men that cook- like Jamie Oliver again. J/K!

I'm weird. I don't find Brad Pitt attractive *at all*.
But good grief, don't get me started on Orlando Bloom!
