Let's talk about LWBS = Left Without Being Seen

Look at the graphs - anyone can immediately see the trend.

Post pandemic it just keeps getting worse. Let's break this down as everyone should care as it will impact you or a loved one at some point 🧵 :

This picture of Jedi and a tiny female zebra jumping spider is one of my recent favourites.

The spider did a little threat display - they stand tall and put their abdomen up - when Jedi moved, then settled and tried to hide under her leg.

In our three sisters garden, the beans have decided to tie everything together. Here is one of the purple pole beans that grew about 60cm over to gently grab one of the pumpkin leaves.

Rhys is doing the most little brother thing ever and chasing Charlie and Maisie around with a huge beetle he found in the garden.

It’s hot. Our heat pump (which does the A/C) is still pooched despite a second board being replaced.

While complaining of being hot and sticky, we had to decide what to do with a bunch of lemons.

Briefly considered pie, curd, bars.

Nah. I put the kids to work juicing. Perfect lemonade.

I made a Tudor England strawbrrry tart from Tasting History.

It is delicious.

Happy Birthday, Rosalind Franklin. She captured an X-ray diffraction image of DNA and stated that a helical structure was probable. Watson and Crick then created a detailed model based on her results. They initially received credit for the discovery and were awarded the Nobel Prize after her death.🧪

Future lemon cucumbers. They’re just what they sound like - cucumbers that look like lemons.

Maisie picked this variety and she’s very excited to eat them.

I love how baby crows sound like a person pretending to be a crow. It sounds like they are actually saying “caw”

Rhys asked me to come to the living room because he made “a talking place where all the people talk about important things like how to get better when you’re sick.”

My kids are playing medical conference.

He said Batman is next up to speak.

Productive day. Made a cherry almond buckle (recipe from one of my favourite sites,) sour cherry jam, and since fresh jam requires fresh bread, I made some french bread.

Found a sign at How Bazaar and I’m not sure if I want to hang it up in the staff room or above my bedroom door.

Found out my rapist - who is a repeat sex offender - is scheduled to be released from jail the day after my birthday and the crown appeal of his sentence (they appealed it as ‘demonstrably unfit’ as it is only around half of what it should be) may not be decided or even heard before he’s let out.

Used the last of the cherries from the one tree to make jam. Absolutely delicious.

I would never make this if I had to buy them. Cherries are freaking expensive.

Made a cheesecake from scratch and topped it with a compote made of the cherries from my tree.

When your friends are also nerds but out of town when something comes up for sale you go pick up the life sized R2D2 cooler and bring it back to their apartment…

I am not above climbing trees to harvest fruit.

The tart Montmorency cherries should start being ready to pick next week. For now we’re enjoying the sweet rainier cherries.
