Simplify life. We all have them, those household items that we purchase for one thing and then end up using them for another. What items do you have that serve double duty?

Thought about this for a while as I have been using some things on double duty for years. It just seems natural and sensible now.

Lets see - the wok. A wok is a sort of frying pan that is used in asian cooking - which all aussies do these days. Well why buy a fry pan, or a stew dish. I cook stew in it, fry in it, stir fry food, do spaghetti meatballs in it, chilli chicken etc. One wok saves on about three other kitchen implements in my view - saves water and storage - must also help prevent climate warming in some way. I mean - its a universal kitchen implement.

Same as the kangaroos that live around us - if I cant find a photo to take for the "Photo a Day" challenge at DSP, I drive around and find a kangaroo to photograph. Have a look at this young one - he is about 9 months old. I have photographed himbefore drinking from his mothers pouch.Isn't he beautiful.
