plant perils.

as i'm sure you know, it's that time again.

the time of the year when every night threatens to freeze, but you never really know whether or not it's worth the considerable effort to bring in all 13 potted plants on the back porch or whether the newscasters are guilty of sensationalism yet again. if it's not going to freeze, there's no way i want so many leaky plants in my oh-so-small kitchen. that being said, i am committed to my plants and their physical health and am more than willing to save their vulnerable lives if the occasion calls for such heroism.

if only someone could invent something to predict whether accurately. i mean, it is the 21st century, right?

  1. think of it as an exercise in efficiency - if it DOES freeze, then well done...and if it DOESN'T freeze, then how could you have made the epic save easier for NEXT time? hmmmm? I'm all about over-analyzing things...wah waaaaah

  2. move to kansas city where it freezes every night! that's why we have indoor plants for the winter. bring your plants--they will keep malacoda company! and you will keep me company? or at least have coffee with me... yes?
