well, almost...
our little joee is all grown up and has moved out and left us empty nesters, but we've been hanging on to copper for a little bit while joe gets his apartment all set up. i feel like our house just doubled in size. i forgot what it was like to not have to share a teeny closet with austin or have to climb up in to the attic if i needed a certain pair of shoes or pants. i can reeeally appreciate even the little bitty closet that i have all to myself again {turns out i have a lot of clothes}.
a little update on our square foot gardening beginnings. our seeds have really taken off and we've begun trimming down the weaklings.
and austin bought some already growing tomato plants over the weekend.
and lastly for this post, i've put pepper on my plant.
actually, i think it's chili powder. but as you can see, someone mischievous {ahem, dinger} has been chewing on my new house plant's leaves, that little jerk. he seems to be attracted to the little droplets of water that appear on the tips of the leaves {because he's obsessed with water} and then decides to just starting eating. or maybe he's just being the problem child that he is. so in an attempt to not have the ugliest houseplant ever, i've put pepper on the leaves, hopefully dinger doesn't like spicy foods.
the one low hanging leaf he hasn't chewed up yet. prevention is key.
is this safe for dinger? the plant? i have no clue. i guess i'll do some googling to find out what i can. anyone have any other suggestions as per what to do about this problem?
