I see you conveniently snipped where Denise said 'while I go out to tend
the critters or garden'. FFS, she's not leaving town...

C'mon Sheldon - when you're cooking a casserole for example - that takes
at least an hour in the oven - do you sit in the kitchen and watch it
cooking the whole time? I'm pretty sure you don't.

Going out into the garden is no worse than going into another room in
the house - especially with those sharp ears you have. <lol>
