Lathrup Village Children’s Garden

I went walking one night and ended up at the Lathrup Village Children’s Garden. Flowers look really menacing when there’s no sun out to feed them.

Check out a few of the pictures I took that night and see the rest of the children’s garden photos on my photos site here: Lathrup Village Children’s Garden

Genetically Engineered Sugar

If you don’t want to read the article, I’ll sum it up for you.

It said that it’ll be genetically engineered to be able to take 5 times as much pesticide. So that means the sugar beets and the soil where it’s planted will have way more POISON in it. They already do that with corn and soy. The only way to dodge that is to buy organic.

This overly-poisoned sugar will be on shelves this year. Think of the children!

Cat Piss Triumphs Over Miracle Gro

My cat used to eat my plants. I had to put them up on a stand that I bought from IKEA.

I bought new pots from Home Depot and filled them up with dirt before I put new plants in them. I found out that my cat was relieving herself in them. That was sad and I thought I had to get rid of the dirt and the pot. But since I’m lazy most of the time, I decided to put the pot on my balcony.

When I repotted my aloe plant last week, I decided to drop a few seeds into the pot with the cat urine and see if anything happens.

I checked on it yesterday and saw that the seeds were actually sprouting in the cat urine pot.

Therefore, I think cat piss is better for your plants than anything else!
