Beth, your garden sounds absolutely amazing.
Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It is nice to be able to plant so much this time of year. And I am amazed at what can fit in an 8 by 4 garden box
It's now 75 out. We just did a bunch of leaf-raking and pruning back ivy and blackberries, and now DH and Annabel are upstairs on the deck planting cucumber seeds and setting out the strawberry plants DH bought today. He's also going to do some herbs, which always do well. This year's quixotic hopes will be tomatoes and peppers.
I know we talked about the brain scientist who had a stroke but have we seen her lecture?
That was so awesome....
I'm roasting a banana with butter and brown sugar. And it's friggin 85 degrees here. I'm not sure what possessed me.

Pppppffffttttbbbbbbb. It's snowing out.
But I have beer. I'm in a room with 20 odd people I barely know, a bank of about 10 desktops, half a dozen laptops and a lot of beer. This trivia thing rocks.
OMG it's way too hot! We just walked to the gas station and got ice cream and fruit bars.
luckily I remembered the vanilla ice cream in the freezer just as the banana started to bubble. AIWFG
Kitty picspam!
The Cat Daniel is hiding under the bed. He tends to be quite...exuberant, not to say bonkers, first thing in the morning. It is often cute. The scurrying up to me and leaping up and tagging me is cute so long as he keeps his claws in. Which he did the first two times. When he leaps up and stabs me and then skitters away, not so much with the cute. The full throated howl of pain that this occasioned made him slink off to the bathroom. I glared at his departing tail and decided to lock him in the bathroom for a bit (with his litter tray) just to reinforce the Stabbing/=good message, but he knows me too well and shot out of the bathroom to hide under the bed.
He has been very quiet for the past ten minutes.
Naughty Daniel.
Which is something I don't say as often as you might think.
