Oh wow - my rice and lentils are glowing!

Oh wow. Austin, for reasons best known to himself, shone his little UV light that he uses for setting UV sensitive resin at the inside of the empty rice-and-lentils pot. Which is cooked with turmeric, because turmeric contains curcumin which is good for dodgy knee joints.

It turns out that curcumin has other properties besides fixing knees - it also glows under UV light!



Apparently he'd been using the light for setting the resin to fix up a broken mounting on the headlamp that the wild boar smashed.  But that's another story...

For equally weird reasons, I found out that dry orange lentils on the shelf glow under UV too!

Might have to go check everything, see what else glows :D  I have 2 UV flashlights, tomato worms glow under it and that's the fast way to eliminate them.
