    Sometimes, the hardest part of a wedding isn’t the planning...

    This is a situation of when you really learn who your real friends are. No way would I have him/them anywhere near me on MY and MY HUSBAND to be day as you'll regret it for the rest of your lives. IT'S YOUR DAY AND NO ONE ELSES. Congratulations to you and yours and have a wonderful life...

    Chocolate Ripple Cheesecake Tart

    Thank you for bringing this to my attention as I used to make it years ago and always loved it. Will be making it again for sure. (y)

    Could this Middle Eastern retail giant finally give Coles and Woolworths some real competition?

    I agree. The next store won't be cheaper as they'll keep their prices around the same as current stores, so WHO IS ALBOSLEAZY KIDDING?

    Creamy French chicken tray bake

    Hey! Just in time for dinner Suzanne. I already had the chicken thawing out and I happen to have everything else in the ingredients, so now dinner is a goer. Thankyou. (y) 🌹💕

    She squeezed her car beside a badly parked vehicle—petty justice or over the line?

    This is the very reason why I rather park with my drivers side near a pillar which usually then gives me a little more room to open my door since I have a "Disability Parking" card. I never park in the "Disability Parks" provided because most are the SAME SIZE AS A REGULAR PARKING SPACE which...

    When public art goes wrong: Celebrity statue sparks fierce debate

    He should have gone to "SpecSavers". Tina was nothing like that when my hubby sat next to her on a flight from Melbourne to Sydney. Her "iconic" song "Simply the Best" is hubby's all-time favourite and our kids have already booked it for his funeral whenever that may be as he's 83 now. Even...

    Are you still doing these three things at the grocery store? Looks like everyone else has stopped

    7777 I really don't know what these people are thinking OR are they NOT THINKING AT ALL? Sadly as for the bananas it's always been the same Australian couple enjoying their fruit hit, but it was ethnics taking the chocolate bars. So who are we to discriminate? You also have a lovely week. 🙏🌹🌞

    Are you still doing these three things at the grocery store? Looks like everyone else has stopped

    If one is sampling one grape that doesn't worry me, but sampling a handful or even a few off of a few bunches I'd call that theft. Then you get the ADULTS taking 4-5 bananas from the "children's free" basket and placing them in a plastic bag to eat while walking throughout the store - I've seen...

    Startling scene shows magpie swooping behaviour reaching alarming levels this season

    Leave the magpies alone as they're only protecting their young the only way they can as any human being would protect their young in whatever situation. I feel that with having a lot of migrants coming here now they don't realise the nature of magpies so they'll just have to learn as the magpies...

    Swooping season is in full swing—here's how Australian seniors can stay safe and informed

    People have to accept that these birds are only trying to protect their offspring, so when out and about wear a hat.

    Easy Apple Slice

    Since we'd been up through NT a few times the side excursions weren't new to us, but if it's ones first or second time I'd say ABSOLUTELY. It was more the Ghan trip that we wanted to do and that was absolutely wonderful. We went "Platinum" which gives you a double bed where as "Gold" gives you...

    Easy Apple Slice

    Suzanne thank you. These remind me of my mothers "Apple Slice". We've been away for 4 weeks having a great time at last getting hubby on his long awaited trip on the Ghan after having to cancel 3 times because of his oncology treatments not coinciding. Also, I finished up in hospital for 2...

    ‘She deserved better’: Viewers react to Lynne McGranger’s last moments on Home and Away

    I stand to be corrected as I heard it incorrectly as it was she left the show acting as she was suffering from Alzheimer's. But seeing her yesterday on "Sunrise" she said she's going to enjoy her life now with travel. So, that's where I got the wrong end of the stick. SORRY!

    Sweet Potato, Eggplant and Chickpea Hotpot

    I can now tell you that I had my first "solid" meal today if one can say a sandwich is a solid meal, but I can also say I thoroughly savoured those 4 little triangles with a cup of custard and black tea. 👍

    Checkout checkpoint shows why new exit gates leave shoppers divided

    I UNDERSTAND YOUR REASONING, BUT HOW OFTEN HAVE WE HEARD OF A FIRE IN ANY STORE. SO I'M ALL FOR THE GATES BECAUSE "HOPEFULLY" IT "WILL" DETER THE THEIVING SODS. AT LEAST I KNOW I WILL NEVER GET CAUGHT AS I HAVE A CLEAN CONSCIENCE.

    Sweet Potato, Eggplant and Chickpea Hotpot

    Thank you Suzanne. It's been quite hard to actually try and survive on water only., but I'm starting on what they call "solids" if you can call "veggie consommé" a solid. They used to say that when one was incarcerated they were given at least the "bread" with water, but I couldn't even have...
