I was just out in my backyard dealing with the ivy, Sarameg. It's a fine balance, because I do like it on the fence in between my and my neighbor's backyards, but I do not like strangling my apple tree. Cayenne gets wildly upset and weird when I am out there hacking at the ivy - I think she likes hiding in it and it freaks her out that I am taking her awning away.
All of the rain the bay area got in the last few months is really paying off in terms of the growth! The apple tree is clearly going to give me as many apples as the Meyer lemon tree gave lemons.
Soooo jealous of people who have lemon trees!
But mint, I am going to have lots of it I hope.
If you have a little, pretty soon you'll have a lot. I'd like a
little
mint. Dang mint. And I don't even drink juleps!
Hm. Could I drink enough Mojitos to use up all this mint? ... No, but it would be a noble effort.
I think anytime you get out of Target having spent under $100, it's a miracle.
On a very strange day, I walked out of Target not having spent a dime. Joe turned to me and said, "You know the world is ending right now." I went back and bought a frozen coke. Which, it turns out, are still very delicious.
Man, of all times for me to get behind on my cable bill!
I missed the season finale of Justified.
Weirdly, they turned off random basic cable channels and not the expensive premium cable stuff. . . and now that I've paid and they've turned it back on? Still not getting FX or USA.
I grow mint to...grow mint. Chocolate mint. I occasionally remember to grab few leaves to toss in my water bottle. And after I take the trash or recycling out, I grab a few leaves to crush on my hands after washing them.
ION, holy hairball, batman! Poor Devi, she's the only one that gets them. That was a lot of fur. I wish she'd let me brush her more, but she gets all bitey and ragey.
This is a very entertaining game. I am doing a lot of shouting at the tv.
