ITA! I had it done 4 years ago. After I got the first eye done, I couldn't wait for the second one to be done. The clarity is amazing!Guilty - and I highly recommend it! Among surgeries, a 10!
What does that mean? I've never heard of that expression.

My first mother-in-law's mother was from Scotland. When she made tea, it was never in a mug. Always brewed in a teapot. Before you pour the water into the china pot over the tea, you fill the pot with hot water while you're getting the rest ready. Pour that water out, and when the boiling water hits the tea, it doesn't immediately cool down for a few seconds. It really does make a difference in the flavor of the tea. After many years, I still do it!
I've heard & seen it mentioned elsewhere, usually from British people. But most recently, it was in The Hypnotist's Love Story
, a novel by Australian Liane Moriarty. Although she said "warm the pot," but everything else was the same.Ahem, so back to Guilty or Not Guilty:
Have you read any novels by Liane Moriarty? (Big Little Lies, The Hypnotist's Love Story, Her Husband's Secret, etc.?)
for explaining the hot pot!

^^ You're welcome ! Addendum:
Do you still buy a book -- bound, not electronic -- on occasion?
In the book, the main character warmed the pot like her grandmother had taught her, just to annoy her mother, who rejected everything her mother had chosen, out of pure orneriness.But most recently, it was in The Hypnotist's Love Story
Guilty - and I don't feel guilty! I like holding it; I'm very tactile.

Not guilty - I leave the cooking to my boyfriend, I just do the baking. 
Do you have a robot vacuum cleaner?
