I'm pretty sure he's a drug dealer. Although he could be a pimp. I can't really tell the difference. I tried to catch his eye to...…
Seeking advice! As long as I've been gardening, I have not been able to grow onions from seed. Each seed brings forth a long, thin leaf. It then bends over and dies...…

I was sitting here working but the words being said on the stand were so salacious, and so jaw-dropping, that I found myself watching more than working. Not good. But, I couldn't stop!…
Did you know that a corn stalk typically only produces one or two ears? No kidding!…
They won't eat our plants but they will eat insects that will eat our plants. Aren't they adorable?!?!…
I started seeing pebbles hitting the Jeep. I said out loud to myself (because I always talk to myself), "Where are these pebbles coming from?" It took me several seconds to realize those weren't pebbles!…
If you think most people support cancel culture, you are wrong. …
If you have gardening deficits like I do, you grow something that is almost impossible to kill. Something so hardy that it borders on invasive. Something like...…

Everything will be edible, of course. I'm especially excited about the beautiful Atomic Grape Tomatoes. Check out those colors!! I even found a toothache plant which looks like something out of Little Shop of Horrors. How cool is that?…

I was on the other side of the door, watching the doorknob mysteriously turn. I thought we had a ghost! But, then the door opened and Tank pranced out, head held high, proud as can be...…
While the skeleton costumes looked fantastic, they were VERY uncomfortable. One size fits all = One size is very uncomfortable for all. Brian's pants wouldn't bend when he sat down. My pants were too tight around the knees (I do NOT have large knees) but ginormously huge around the waste so they kept trying to fall down. But, it was all for a good cause (the entire city was invited) so, instead of whining about mis-fitting polyester, we...…
A couple of weeks ago, I told Brian, "I've seen so many little white shooting stars in my life but I'd REALLY like to see one of those big fireball meteors before I die!" And, then, it happened!!…
