Joanne; me too, I'll be happier if the farmers get some, they're growing our summer fruit right now.
joeh; it will have to pass across our eastern states first, if there's any left after that, it's all yours.
Elephant's Child; I do hope you get some, there was plenty of colour left in the clouds when they passed on. We have a few clouds left here, but there's blue sky too.
Lee; perhaps you'll get some when Canberra has finished with it.
Barbara Neubeck; I'll have to watch the weather report more closely and see which areas outside of Adelaide are getting rain. I know they need it over on the Yorke Peninsula.
Pearl; I've seen that type of rain on TV, fluffy white stuff you can shovel around. :)
Delores; in our dryer than dry country we need lots of it.
That is great after the hot weather you've been having. Sorry but you may get more heat next week as we have a couple of days in the high 30s forecast in Perth. We have been promised showers here but nary a sign of precipitation so still watering the garden twice weekly and by hand for pots etc each day. Hopefully the rain will reduce the high fire danger in South Australia as well.
Not exactly environmentally friendly...... Line the base of your oven with a sheet of aluminium foil. If you keep a tray there to catch spills and overflows, line the tray with aluminium foil instead. It's much easier to throw away a sheet of foil (once it's been spilled on a few dozen times), than it is to scrub off baked on spillovers.
I shall keep this short and sweet. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! I am truly surprised to have received this: Laughing Horse Award from Yorkshire Pudding , also known as YP, for being the Australian Blogger of the Year. Click the link to read the nice things he said.
You all know the ice cream company? Very expensive ice cream, which I recently discovered in small tubs at my local supermarket. I'd heard about Salted Caramel ice cream, with some bloggers raving about it, so when I saw the Haagen-Dazs tubs on sale for only $5 I bought some. I loved it! Fabulous stuff. Just the right amount of salted caramel streams to counteract the sweet ice cream. I would have rated it five stars. But just lately, I have been disappointed with the product containing far too much of the salted caramel and my rating now would be only one star. I went to the website and clicked on "contact us" to let them know I was no longer happy. The link popped up with an address to "General Mills" which I then clicked on only to find a small popup informing me they were "offline". Just because it is past regular business hours or permanently? Who knows. So I'm airing my grievance here instead. If this results in fewer sales of their Sa
I am so happy for Adelaide.
ReplyDeleteWhen you're done with it, can you send it to California?
ReplyDeleteGood. It is hot and dry here - with luck some of that moisture will make it over here.

Areas in Brisbane copped a lot of rain during storms on Wednesday, but we received very little here. We need it badly.
ReplyDelete... happy to hear about the rain, River... I hope the farmers get some, Too ...

We have rain, too. In the form of snow, so that it can be moved around more easily.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I'm telling myself until, oh, April.
Pearl
glad you got some rain
