My little Leilani


Ta-Da!! Would you check out my not-so-green thumb! Leilani is now flourishing amidst the dirty dishes and dish soap that inhabit my kitchen window sill. Against all odds she has conquered the infestation of soil gnats, (yes, they were living in her little pot) and my attempts to transfer her to a larger pot. Today my dear friend DaniLyn came over to help me re-pot my precious guacamole maker. While dumping soil from the bag into the larger pot I discovered some clear round egg shaped balls. I wasn't too sure what they were so I squoze (is that even a word) one and it squirted into both of our eyes. Yuck. If they are bug eggs then I would say that it takes a pretty great friend to wipe bug egg goo out of her eyes and still stay for lunch. Way to go DaniLyn. What is a great friend? Some one who brings you a large drink when your daughter is ralphing on the couch, and helps you re-pot a precious accomplishment, and gets goo in her eyes and still stays to eat with you. What more can I ask in a friend? Not much folks. That's for sure.
