Oh my! Best wishes to husband, and some strength and patience vibes for you.
This isn’t related to the shaver incident, is it?

It’s my fault - I watered the garden this morning cos it was looking dry. May have overdone it.

Evap milk is REQUIRED for rice pudding. Or you don’t get that glorious brown crunchy crust on the top without it.

Reusing the teabag is a crime against Nature. Also, the tannins have developed out on the first soaking, and all the theine and caffeine has been extracted. All you get on the second soak is colour and tannin. This applies to real tea, not herbal for which I prefer to use the term ‘tisane’.
On a side note (for the barf factor) a couple I was friendly with some years ago went to Korea as Christian missionaries. They were supported by a few congregations in the south of the USA. One congregation sent them a packet of tea bags which had been used only on the left hand side (they explained in a letter that accompanied the teabags). They did this as an exercise in Christian self denial and sharing with the less fortunate. The fact that the tea bags had gone thoroughly mouldy by the time they reached Korea was not an issue that mattered to them. In spite of the postage. As an example of utterly useless performative self abnegation, this just can’t be beat imo. They hurt themselves, and the end result was utterly useless to anyone else.
Yes, I use a double walled glass mug for tea. Holds the tea at the right temperature for the whole mugful and I thoroughly approve of such tea mugs. You can buy them in Kmart.

Yes kangaroo paw is perennial, and doesn’t like being transplanted much. Best planted in a big pot so it’s roots can go deep down like it’s supposed to. Drought hardy once established.
Also, nasturtium flowers and buds are edible - quite a nice tangy taste and so pretty in a salad. The very young buds can be pickled and taste like capers. Leaves not edible tho.

There’s decaf TEA??? This is an abomination. Besides, there’s not much caffeine in tea anyway - it’s mostly theine.

I’m going to assume that you’ve seen a doctor or physio about this. Backs are hard to fix cos just about EVERYTHING you do uses core muscles that attach to your back at some point. Rest can only do so much - maybe a sport physio could help you a bit more than a regular one?

Those were the days. Glad they’re gone too.

Did mine at the Box Hill copshop - on the Saturday morning before Christmas in 1975. Yes, the traffic was chaos and I’m sure the copper took this into account cos I got it on the first try. In those days, all the shops shut down at 12 noon on Saturday so there was something of a gadarene swine vibe about the whole of Box Hill Shopping centre that day.

Chuck the bowl in the crisper drawer of your fridge. 12 hours is about right for fridge proving. This assumes that your fridge is 6 deg C consistently.

Army? Endemic in Afghanistan, and recent outbreak in Niu Gini. Some cases recently in southern USA too due to low vax rates.

Um, if that’s the corner, which way does the dishwasher open? Will opening it close off access to the bits next to it?

Silver or black embroidered spiderwebs across the lapels, and on one of them, a haematite spider with black pipecleaner legs. Or a googly eye with pipecleaner legs would be fun too.

Cherry tomatoes make great snacking foods, and baby cukes too. Also nourishing.
