I hope all those racist misogynist fucks catch it. I agree with your sentiment 100%

American Jezzies, I just want to reach through my screen and hug all of you (safely, from 6 ft away.)

Some of them might be self-seeding or perennial, I guess. The others might only the one year. That pink flower is so pretty!

Everything you need for a good pasta sauce.

I love drapy houseplants. 🌱

I've got one those too that I use for tomatoes. So useful for decks, because I find they dry out quickly and I'm forgetful about watering. What a pretty mix of flowers!

Wow, that basil really took off! Is that some mint in there too?

Hang on! I'm vegetarian! It's got black beans, leeks, peppers and corn, served with polenta.

I’ve got Making Comics by Lynda Barry and Some Assembly May Be Required by my favourite paleontologist, Neil Shubin. I’ve been very distracted too. I guess it’s not too surprising, given everything that's happening. I've been watching Stanley Cup games: the 1967 playoffs between Toronto and Montreal, a bunch from the…

Thankfully my fridge is a tall skinny apt model, so the freezer has drawers. I thought I got all the glass, but maybe I'll take the drawer out tomorrow to empty and clean.

I have the same problem, I have to let things grow a little before I can tell if they're weeds or not. Did you notice any bees in your planter? I've been thinking of putting a planter or raised bed at the front of the house for sunflowers and maybe a seed mix like yours.

My quick research tells me they are a wild onion and can’t be substituted for leeks. Here’s recipe I used:https://www.thekitchn.com/spring-recipe-spaghetti-pan-fried-with-ramps-mint-170317

Oh good, I'm trying basil this year, I'm glad to hear it's a happy laid back plant. One thing I didn't know is how much cilantro self-seeds, but if it's in a pot, it won't be a problem.

What sort of a plant are they?

Thanks! You’re right, it’s hard to get into the habit, but once you do, it gets easier and easier to get going.

I read about a gardener who foiled the squirrels and birds by putting out fake strawberries. By the time the reals ones were ripe, the critters had learned the fruit on that plant wasn’t edible. Maybe what you need are fake lemons to hang from the tree to troll the little jerks.

Maybe I’ll try it too and we can compare notes. At the very least, it looks like you’ll end up with some greens.

Top of the list should be a sample of That carpet and every college student should have a dorm cookbook. Otherwise how will you know how to make kraft dinner in your coffee maker? I guess every generation figures it out.

It reminded me of the sound from my friend’s electric fence. Her parents had one around their vegetable garden to keep the deer out. We used to play a fun game where we tried to touch it between zaps to see who could go the longest without getting zapped. Zoot, touch, zoot, touch...
