But of course that's just an excuse cooked up by the wealthy oligarchs who keep us all in poverty!<br /><br />Edna: I don't now the story behind the tree in a bag. It just appeared early this year and has been living in the bag ever since. I hope it gets planted out eventually!<br /><br />Padre: Thanks for catching up!<br /><br />Ms Moon: It's a strange phenomenon, though, isn't it? Why avocados?<br /><br />Ellen: Had to break up the pattern!<br /><br />Red: It pays to keep your eyes open!<br /><br />Robin: Ha! I don't think I've seen any dragons at the cemetery, though there are a profusion of angels.<br /><br />Linda Sue: Thanks! :)<br /><br />Sharon: I agree -- I think someone made that vase.<br /><br />Alphie: I saw an adult several weeks ago, which I blogged about, but we haven't seen any caterpillars yet.<br /><br />Mary: Right?! Bag of apple TREES.<br /><br />Catalyst: We love our lava lamp! I think I blogged about it when I first bought it, but that was a year or two ago so you may have forgotten. :)<br /><br />Allison: Yes, it works! In fact, prompted by all your comments, I've just turned it on, so it will be lava-ing in half an hour or so. I have no idea what the backstory is on the tree in a bag.<br /><br />Michael: It's so handy to ALWAYS have a camera.<br /><br />Bug: They're not very expensive! At least, not here. I assume it would be the same in the states. I think ours was about $20.<br /><br />Jenny-O: It surprises me too. I thought that tree would be suffering. The tall lamp has two levels of multiple sockets beneath the shade -- four up near the top and four in the middle, for eight bulbs in all. (Those little chandelier-style bulbs.)Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-36430138852235784892020-07-27T01:28:16.370+01:002020-07-27T01:28:16.370+01:00It kind of surprises me that the apple tree is doi...It kind of surprises me that the apple tree is doing so well in such little soil!

I agree about the apostrophes. I wonder why the tree is sitting out in a bag. Is someone waiting to see if a stranger will come along and take it home with them? Hmmm.

On reflection, the "s" should actually be a small case letter as in "DVDs".
