No pictures. Maybe I’ll wear the same outfit on Sunday. We have five raised beds and some not-raised, just sittin there on the ground ;-). One of them has the cilantro forest, and I planted more chives, dill, and basil.
The raised beds are mostly tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant, except for the one where I just put carrot and pea seeds.

I am a connoisseur of pangolin. I prefer the Malay form, pĕngguling. [sniff...]. Nice meeting you on this dreadful thread, Mrs. Tax.

Whoever wins, at least they won’t have an Obama. OTOH, Obama has been good to the Canadian dollar ;-)

Hey, careful.
Skippy the Echolocating Wonderbat will claim that as proof that “An” economy “Somewhere” has improved because of his breel-yunt leadership.

Hmmmm....sounds a bit like my ex-wife.

I wish I shared your optimism. The NDP (which makes Obama look centrist) is within 3 points of the Conservative party.

not possible, but I get your drift. I’m rooting for ya. My brother who lives in Canada will be one more conservative vote.

Any oil-based sprays (animal, vegetable or mineral) hair sprays and spray deodorants will kill insects. The oils/drying agents clog their breathing holes and smother them. Oven cleaner, Scotchguard, window and bathroom foams and sprays ~ use your imagination and see what happens.

Aerokroil messes them up immediately.
They buzz drunkenly around the floor after dropping stright down.
And after about two seconds they usually are dead.
WD-40 takes a bit longer.
