Oh my, I did a lot of head shaking, then head nodding, and finally lots of giggling over mayonnaise and plastic flowers.
Anyway, just a note to say that my gardening style has changed so much over the years- due to moving several times, then kids, then kids starting to be more independent, then early retirement.
Spiced up by changing interests and willingness or lack thereof to fight local conditions and fussy plants.
One thing that's constant is that there was always something green to "garden with" whether it was a pot in the office or a landscaped city lot. Even when I lived in the MiddleEast for six months (job related). I doubt I will ever give up gardening, and I hope you never do, Lee-Roy.
