Old man visits the doctor. After an exam the doctor is looking over his notes. He says, "Doc, how do I stand?"

The doctor replies, "That's what puzzles me!"

We found Sheba Perfect Portions for .24cents, dated 11/2019 @ Safeway. Purchased 34 & he eats the same thing every day & loves it! He's weird.

I got an email from Crate & Barrel this morning and I am telling you the truth, this is actually for sale on their site. And it's on CLEARANCE!

donna I bet someone will buy them too.

I didn't know you were supposed to sell them. I have been putting them at the street for the trash truck!

Serious whuppin'.

I don't know about birch branches, but these sticks reminded me of a procedure we used to "plant" weeping willow trees. In late spring, take a cutting from a healthy tree, slice the butt end of the stick at an angle and shove it into the ground. Keep it well watered for the next 2 weeks and if its shows signs of new growth, reduce the watering schedule, but do not let the soil dry out until the new tree is established. It is easy to start new weeping willows with this method. It is best to plant the cutting as soon as possible. If it is allowed to dry out, its probably dead wood.

Growing a new plant from a cutting will produce a clone of its donor whereas its seeds may not. The seeds can be hybrids if there are other closely related trees in the vicinity.

When we had to cut down our very tall birch that died, I had friends and strangers ask me for logs to display in their fireplaces. I was happy to oblige and we saved the rest to burn--naughty, naughty these days.
