If You Can Survive... The Ring... of... Fire!

My parents came to visit me on Sunday and brought me this:
A teeny-tiny basil plant!
It is super adorable!
I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy.
Of course, this is not really a prudent decision on the part of my parents if they want to eat fresh basil anytime soon.
My apartment is, shall we say, the place where plants go to die.
The odds are stacked against you, little Squishy! I hope you make it!

4 made a huge mistake.:

I believe in you! I think Squishy will grow up to be a beautiful, big basil plant!

(Don't tell Squishy, but I think he would be paired perfectly with tomato, mozzarella and olive oil...yum!)

I've kept a geranium alive for like six months and I always kill plants. I find the secret is talking to the plant and when I get a little tipsy, I like to share my sober up water with the plant. If I can do it, you can do it!

The shrimp made it home in your flowerpot, so at least that plant died for a noble cause?

Hooray! The shrimp survived! I was a little worried when they turned translucent.
