One should consume one’s Earl Grey without milk or cream both for its heritage and because it will curdle the bloody milk. If one desperately desires a milky accompaniment to the tea must warm the milk before adding it.
One does not infuse it in ice cream.

So a calculation that can be performed in a blink of an eye can now be performed in a blink of an eye… but with a greater sense of accomplishment. Kudos!

Funny seeing your post. Left 10yo g/daughter chilling at home alone today whilst I walked dogs. Got home & she proudly told me she’d made an Easy Mac (instant mac) following instructions & had used a microwave for the first time… ever!😳

I don’t know many folks that lean against barriers using their elbows like that. Gotta hurt. Probably doing them a favour.

Different pack sizes from different vendors is quite common down under. One store chain may have a different pack size on their shelves. Hence why we have mandatory per unit cost on the shelf sticker. At the end of the day be it d/washer or w/machine you only need half a scoop 🤣

I’m getting reports coming in now too. Happens every year they’re telling me. I’m guessing it must be something they put in the water?

From a personally ascertained general consensus, based on a plethora of posts (think American Reacts videos), seems to indicate that for the most part you’ll get a better product O/S. I can only speak for Australia and NZ but a Big Mac certainly appears to be made with a dash more pride down here 😊

Yes it’s comparing the quality of said Big Mac with those in other countries like Australia that is of course heavily used as a modern metric. Feedback I get is that it doesn’t bode well for its place of origin…

Exactly! Myself I just put the AirPods on but fortunately there is still the reassurance of their gentle vibration as they click and clack, munch and scrunch... When that all stops is when I turn off the music and raise a questioning eyebrow. 😬

You don’t mean that! I think you just wanted an excuse to use ‘viscerally scary’ in a sentence. 😊
If you’re curious about size (I suspect not now 😂) rest assured that is only the side of an iPad box so it’s an OK size but not exactly the biggest of beasts.
Wanna go for a walk in the garden?

Spiders? That’s OK we have some warm attire for them during the cooler days 😁
FTR this is my phone wallpaper. Found this young fella running around on my desk a month or two ago. Shooed it out so the missus didn’t spray it. He’ll eat the insects and arachnids that really DO bother us! 💪
