@Jynx Absolutely! This is yummy - two big round spoon of your favourite ice cream, half of that fruit yoghurt (i like it plain myself,) plenty of your delicious raspberries, topped with whipped cream, grated chocolate and crushed almonds.

(Our Logan berries and blue berries are getting near ready. i already had a few blue berries. They are my favourite.)

Hi, you make a good point. I wonder how many people who are affected by OCD are bothered by the letters being out of alphabetical order.

@Till23

I have heard of Pickleball. It was on a US reality TV show that I saw it. I think "I am Jazz"

Was it fun?

@Jynx

My best friend makes me some little Raspberry tarts every Christmas. They are delicious.

I spoilt myself today. While we were shopping at Coles I bought myself some large purple and white baubles for my Christmas tree. I have 12 in total. Purple is my favourite colour so I am excited. I think I am going to do purple and silver this year.

Heya @Oaktree , glad to hear hubby is back @Oaktree . So you're the new nurse on the block now?

Really? Are you terrified of snakes? If so, I'm interested to know why you chose a serpent/snake to paint for your Aborginal painting. (I'm not quizzing you. I'm jhust interested). You don't need to answer if you aren't comfortable doing so.

As for hunting, what do you mean?

After reading your post, it feels like I've been living under a rock!

@Oaktree i always have my legs and feet well covered when i get to snake territory. Keeping your hands up, is important when passing spots where snakes might attacks from, although such is extremely rare in my experiences around the house. i do know about people who have been bitten in their hands when snakes saw no other bare spot to bite into.

(Usually unprovoked attacks by snakes come soon after the snake have been harassed by people or dogs.)

@tyme

The serpent I painted was the Rainbow Serpent. It is a major dreamtime story associated with my culture. The Rainbow Serpent created all the mountains and valleys around.

I have a healthy fear of snakes.

It wasn't traditional hunting. More of an astrological hunt. There was supposed to be an aurora happening but you can't see it with the naked eye. You have to take timed exposures with your phone or camera to see it. We didn't catch anything interesting.

Oooo! Thank you for explaining it all to this traditional dodo here lol.

Gotta love you @Oaktree 🙂

You're too amazing!
