This afternoon I was transplanting shrubs. Sounds reasonable. Also I needed to finish emptying the rain barrel. Still OK. No, I didn't pour the water on my feet, I did something much dumber.

I used the last of the water from the rain barrel (that had 9 months' to ferment) to water in the transplanted shrubs, while standing TOO CLOSE. Yep, you guessed it: the compost tea came seeping up out of the ground, and saturated my feet and thong and slipper! EEEwwww. Felt really good to take a foot bath after that one ;D

Shoe, I agree. I too was wondering how she got her thong wet.
