Chilled peppermint tea is even better @GezzaP During summers I used to drink this chilled Yeos brand chrysanthemum tea as I was told soft drinks were too dehydrating. I used to read TCM books because I love the world of healing. You can buy this chrysanthemum tea at any Asian grocer, possibly Amazon. The only problem is its high in sugar. I'm going to get some dried chrysanthemum instead and steep it in boiling water then chill it with raw honey instead of sugar this summer

@GezzaP I hope @TAB is not stuck doing a circuit around supermarkets with empty shelves. He said he got most of what he needed in the first shop. Just checked the Emergency Services app on my phone and we have a local fire. Read last week in newspaper they are expecting fires right through Victoria with the drying of grasses plants and trees this fire season.

@SmilingGecko I was already home. just felt bit faint and had to lie down.

still got to dig holes for 3 trees ha ha must have got a good spot for first one,cant decide where to put others now, started couple holes,bit ordinary, but will have to be done soon

shelves bursting as opposed to empty, just lots people. did not have towait at checkout tho

yeah I pulled some dumb moves on road today @GezzaP really not necessary

Oh no risky driving @TAB . If I drive tomorrow I’ll be cautious like always, Went to local for lunch. Ate all the food was hungry cause didn’t eat much yesterday. Saw one person I know. Getting back up the hill was a struggle because my back is playing up. Took painkillers as soon as I got home. Will stretch back directly.

Be sure to put any fruit trees in full sun @TAB . Good afternoon @SmilingGecko .

Already had a couple of fires in SA @SmilingGecko . Also dry here. I think the bin man just came. I will go to look in a little while. Remind me to bring in washing

Thats no good @TAB I hope you are rested up now! At least there was stuff on the shelves when you got there and not too long of a wait at checkout. I'm just doing some cooking for xmas. Making some GF vegan seeded crackers now. Its so easy just throw seeds in a bowl add boiling water, sit then roll out on a sheet and bake. I've cooked them before they taste better than store bought minus the additives and preservatives. Works out roughly to half the price than shops possibly more with all this inflation and price gouging. Got to make a beetroot dip tomorrow I dont do Yumis anymore because of diet but I think mine is tastier.

I definitely don’t need more sugar @SmilingGecko . Got menopause belly I can’t get rid off! I also drink a belly expanding drink. Xmas eve will eat and drink much with my helper if he shows up. Went for lunch at local. Was nice to get out of house for a second time today. Hope your afternoon is going smoothly.

Yeah I could not do Yeos anymore will make my own @GezzaP Yes its been a good day here. I dont get out to pubs or cafes anymore but sounds like you had a good time out there today. I bought some sandals from Salvos Stores last week which arrived today. Have been on the lookout for a comfortable shoe. I got these wonderful you-beaut orthopedic sandals for half price so will have a light shoe that is shock absorbant and cool for summer. I'm guessing that its a good walking shoe. Was pleased as I had no sandals. Well will throw these crackers in the oven now
