Puppy & Plants
Happy Friday Saturday everyone! I had a blog post all planned out for today yesterday but I ended up having to spend the morning at the vet with my little bean because he tore another toenail (and then got home too late Friday night to take outdoor photos). Poor Bo!
But not to worry- he is doing well and enjoying his loopy drugs. I feel like the world must be a very fun/baffling place for a little drugged up doggy brain.
So instead of the planned post, I will instead leave you with two pretty awesome plant-related discoveries.
First of all, there was huge news on the grape front yesterday Thursday… one of our grapes turned purple!!! This is the first grape to ever make it to the purple phase. It seems like these bunches may actually become real grapes by fall. Very exciting! Haha and I love that only one has turned purple… it’s much more dramatic that way. He is the champion grape.
Secondly, remember that wild mint that was that was taking over our backyard? I had placed it into a vase of water two weeks ago in the hopes of having greenery in the house for a few days. Well fast forward two weeks and not only is it still living… it has continued growing! See the fresh green at the top? That is new growth! I can’t believe that it is possible to grow mint in a vase. Super cool!
Well it is time for me to go back to being a loving, supportive dog mom so I will bid you adieu. Have a great weekend!
Progress is a beautiful thing, my friends! We have 4 big bunches and 1 small bunch going (and I think that will be it). So we may only get a little sip of wine when all of this is said and done. Totally worth it! ;)
Needless to say, we got some pretty strange looks. I had to drive slowly and everyone hated me. But we got our tree home in one piece and Walker planted it in front of the bathroom window so hopefully it will give us some privacy (and also block the view of the side neighbor’s hideous new satellite dish). Happy Arbor Day!
