    Changed my bedding, doing laundry. Might hang the sheets and towels out tonight to dry in the blast tomorrow.

    I should probably make some jelly too. Need to check the water is well topped up in advance because birds and animals will need it. Maybe pull the smaller pots inside.

    I’m still not liking this dishwasher. I’ve ended up using it regularly only so dirty stuff doesn’t build up and attract bugs.

    Bitching

    I just have to do a load daily (or run two loads) due to not being able to efficiently stack many of the smaller items, then manually rinse everything under the tap and put it in the rack to drip. If I could stand long enough to just wash things in the sink I would straight up do that. But for now this is the go.

    One thing I have found to be a problem though is the cat’s silicone bowls have absorbed the strong lemon-lime smell of the detergent which will absolutely turn her off eating. (I don’t find silicone kitchenware very good to be honest. It tends to absorb odours and be difficult to clean any oils fully off. The bowls have also stained yellow from pumpkin.)

    Luckily they’re fold down travel bowls so I can try to get the smell out with baking soda or vinegar and pack them away. It’s just nice to have spares… Love it when two crap products team up.
