I have a nuwave cooker which is very similar to an insta pot, but is minus a few features. I had asked for an instapot for Christmas one year and this is what I got... I kind of wish I could sell this and get a real...

Kaz I have an instant pot and use it quite often. Anything with lentils or beans does really well in the instant pot. I was a bit wary of it at first because I can remember the old ones with the weight on the top and lots of hissing and being told not to touch...

Kaz Reusing and repurposing is great. I recently had a duvet cover develop a tear that I couldn't fix so I cut it into pieces and have made some pillow cases with it.

I just found out that bananas should be kept in the fridge. They become overripe so fast and I had to give up on them. I have a digestive problem and I can't eat overripe fruits. Where I live it's not very cold. There are over 25...

Kaz I keep citrus fruits and grapes in the fridge. Not bananas as it's not usually that warm here and they get used up and eaten quite quickly when we have them.

Kaz I didn't know who the singer was but I did recognise the song. I think the first time I heard it was because Doug E Fresh had used the refrain in one of his tracks. I think I've also heard it on movie soundtracks through the years.

Kaz If they are breaking into your house they are after jewellery and electronics rather than info (unless you are living in a spy movie). We don't have a shredder. We have a firepit and matches!

Kaz Many moons ago, the best thing on the entire menu at a Wimpy was the Spicy Bean burger. A good bean burger is great. I don't like the "meat replacement" stuff either. Usually it's ultra processed and not good for you at all. As you say, you can make a...

Kaz I do take cod liver oil, also vitamin D and magnesium. The doctor told me to take vitamin D and because you absorb it better with fat and magnesium I take the others. I also try to eat oily fish every week, usually mackerel or sardines.

Kaz @lazydaizee always best to start with a small thing for your first patchwork. A quilt is a lot of sewing! Bags, cushion covers, lap quilts are quicker to make so you don't get fed up before you finish.
