SCAM ALERT! Last month I posted pictures of these garden sculptures that I purchased. Well, after nearly 4 weeks, I finally got my items today. They do not remotely look like this.... They look like cheap junk that I wouldn't pay $5 for! . I have contacted the seller to ask for a full refund. If they refuse, I will file a dispute with my credit card company.



Needless to say, someone on here (can't remember who) was going to order some too... PLEASE DON'T! THEY ARE GARBAGE. The advertised pictures make it look like a 3D sculpture made from metal. In reality, the dandelion is 3D but looks nothing like the delicate picture. And the fairy is just a flat piece of metal. Very dishonest...

Are you sure it had that blade when it came back from repair ?

Yeah, he only pulled it onto a ramp here. It was cutting fine until now. Fortunately, I still have the old blades and a sharpener. It should be fixed one way or another next week.

Not much done today, got 20 strawberries planted. I tested positive for Covid and it is kicking my butt.

I'm so sorry! Hopefully it won't be too bad and won't last too long!

Rain on & off. No garden work. But my pots for potting up arrived from Amazon so hopefully I can get my tomatoes repotted in the next few days!

I am officially GROSSED OUT.
I just got back from the city market.
I took a head of leafy green lettuce off the wall and another rolled down and landed on the rug they put under the lettuce, due to all the water from the misters.
I handed the head to the stock person that was close by refilling the peppers, and told them that it had fallen on the dirty carpet. I expected him to toss it in the compost bin box on the bottom of the trolly. Instead, he put it on the back of the cart. Ok, whatever, the box was full of peppers, maybe he doesn't mix things for accounting reasons.
So I keep shopping the produce section and another stock person reaches above the lettuce and puts up a new sign, and knocks another head onto the dirty rug.
He reached down, picked it up, and put it to the top of the pile.

Now I KNOW where my shoes had been 30 minutes earlier, walking through the alpaca barn and the CHICKEN HOUSE!
Lettuce anyone???
Then as I rounded the corner from the potatoes, out pops stock boy #1 from the back room with lettuce head #1 shaking water off. Obviously he ran it under some water.
You aren't washing barn and henhouse off with a quick rinse. And what ELSE was on that rug?
NASTY.

I have seen that many times, in supermarkets too, in 4 different countries.

Well that's what I thought but then when

I have a pot filled with the onions out here I use the chives.

Said that I wondered if the tops were edible and tasted like chives lol.
