Tuesday Morning Ridiculousness
Because, yanno, we all need a good laugh, right?
I've been working on rebuilding my garden lately and have had mixed results. Some of my plants kicked the bucket. A couple of my plants got eaten by the Sunny Monster. Two are thriving.
So, I've been thinking about growing other things - less common things like potatoes or, hey, how about garlic?
Honestly, garlic wasn't even on my radar until I got an email from Burpee this morning. I was looking through their varieties and this, obviously, caught my attention for numerous reasons:

Apparently, the Romanians love their garlic (who doesn't?), and I often wonder how much this played into the whole vampire folklore thing, but that's another discussion for another time. Anyway, this intrigued me, so I went to read the reviews because I've never grown this kind of thing before and wanted to see what other people's results were like. And I found this gem of a review:

HAH! I love it. And I'm so tempted but I'm not sure if this is what I need to be doing right now. LOL Thoughts? Opinions? Am I nuts for even wanting to try and grow garlic? You would not believe how much I go through on a regular basis either.
I'm going to leave you with this little gem because it's highly representative of how I've been feeling lately.

Anyone know how to exit this chat 'cause I probably ought to do something productive today. :D

Just shared your post with J, and he wants to add that it's time to be scared if those chatting voices are making sense -- something we've both been known to experience as well.

I'll let you know, but I haven't managed it yet and I'm well, old. :D
Some days, the voices make more sense than I do. :)

You're only as old as you feel you are, but then, of course, with that in mind, there are times every one of us feels thousands of freaking years old . . .

He's right, but lately I've started to feel it a bit. Sometimes, I have plenty of energy, others, eh. Not quite. But I also have cervical spinal stenosis which causes radiating pain in my body so... I've felt 80 for about 10 years now. Hahaha. Yoga is my friend.
