Cookie, I also lost snap on iPad, but it was still on my phone. I think that when you do an upgrade, that’s when it happens.
I also can’t post photos again. Very frustrating.
Marina, best wishes for op. Sounds like you are in good hands. When you have time, let us know how you are going.
Builder were here from 8 to 6 to install the blinds for my garden room. I fed them as it was bitterly cold with a strong south wind. Scones, jam and cream for morning tea. Cottage pie for lunch with Rum and Raisin Banana cake to follow. I sent the boss home with a chicken pie as he was running late.

Lovely to get some rain. We also could do with a bit.
Soup for dinner. I used the roast bone from the lamb leg. Added veggies and soup mix.

Cookie, I just saw a recipe for a sandwich with ham and fig jam. Interesting.
Made some lovely rolls . Base Laucke grain mix and substituted 100 g of cooked grain. I’m using my drying cabinet to prove the bread. Excellent for our cold climate.
Also made more jam. Cooked apple cores and peel, used this as a base for Rhubarb and mixed berries.

Best of luck Marina you will be fine . Doing all the exercises when ready and maybe even hydrotherapy might help . Enjoy the rest time too.
Yesterday I had yoga class . DH can home late and I had snuck into bed early ( night before I was awake in the middle of night for a few hours!) had to layer clothes on and drive him out to get Ute for our worker who was seeding! It was very fresh , cold.

Cookie, I had a similar situation with Pepperplate, except they were looking to get me to subscribe.  Luckily I had a chance to get on it and get my recipes off so I didn't lose anything.

Off to hospital in a couple of hours.  I spoke to my anesthetist yesterday (funnily enough, like our surgeon, he is a customer of ours and he commented that he had noticed me limping last time he was in the shop!), anyway, he said the operation could be 2 hours, maybe longer, and offered me the consolation that he would send me to sleep then when I woke up I would be cold, hungry and sore!  Such an encouraging young man ... not  :-\  Actually, I have been stressing and anxious about the procedure the last couple of days, but he is a lovely guy with a good "bedside manner", and I actually relaxed as we chatted on the phone.  I am sure he will take very good care of me.

Heard on the weather forecast that there was a chance of rain in Perth, so glad to hear that it happened.  Probably not nearly enough, but it is so good to at least get some to help the plants, the people and water reserves.

The blinds will be waiting for the first sunny day Chookie.
DD and I had lunch out. One of our favourite sushi restaurants. Not fancy but delicious.

I’m feeling cross at myself. I have used Snap recipes for many, many years and have put heaps of favourites on there. I can’t access it anymore. On checking I think it has all gone ‘belly up.’  DD had a look and can’t help. 😢😢😢😢😢😢 if by any chance I can access it again I will photograph every favourite and print it off.

That’s lovely Chookie. One of the ladies in our Tuesday car club coffee felt she wasn’t seeing enough of her grandchildren. She now puts on dinner for them on the first Tuesday of the month. It has been very successful.
We’re having sausages in home made baguettes. It has actually rained here today. Absolutely wonderful.
