Why don't you do a spot of whitling?


And what's that when it's at home?


It's probably whittling during a tea shortage.


I'll only do that if ceanothus tea has interesting hallucinogenic or
aphrodisiac effects, or some other worthwhile nutritional value.
Meanwhile, what is whittling with two ts when it's at home? Plucking
the tips, as in "whittling away"?
