Yes!!! What’s the dish thing called? A Petrie dish or something. (Or am I completely off the mark?)

I don’t know why more people don’t grow it at home. I may start myself. 😊

Wasn't it the law? The same as learning to play London's Burning on the recorder

I quite like cress.

I hate it when an errant bit gets stuck in between the teeth though… 😕

Yes

Also made big loaf bread from scratch.

I also made fudge at school. I told my dad about that and we tried it at home. He ended up having to get a chisel to break it up though, no exaggeration.

It had turned to hard toffee.

I think the recipe for fudge and toffee are very similar, about ten minutes after the fudge stage it starts going hard.

I grew bean sprouts in the chemistry lab kit. Much better than cress.
