Helloooo planty people ๐ซถ๐ผ๐ฟ Itโs Thursday, and today I have cooked vegetables like Iโm a real life grown person. I have also spent the morning dancing to the Eiffel 65 radio on Spotify, LOL, AND I did laundry!! Where is my medal and certificate?? ๐๐ฅ๐
Itโs time to gather at #TheWateringHole aka #brunchataudreys . We were talking and felt like #TheWateringHole better represents who we are nowโฆa casual and fun group that likes to hang out and chat about plants, no shaming or gatekeeping, experts and beginners all intertwined and supporting each other. What do you all think? feel free to join #TheWateringHole group too so you donโt miss any posts! ๐ฆ
In light of the #greggivesbackgiveaway (pst, if you have never won before, go submit an entry!! Winner will be picked on the 16th!!) I was looking around at my next oldest plants! ๐ชด I rarely show my succulents, but hereโs a peek at 1๏ธโฃโUrsulaโ my mama aloe plant who is just as old as my 16 year old golden pothos โPhyllis.โ (Who was named when I thought she was a philodendron ๐)
2๏ธโฃ & 3๏ธโฃ then next is โAristotleโ my 7 year old lace aloe, and a small selection of his pups. I repotted him when his 33 pups were threatening to evict him from his pot!
4๏ธโฃ evidence of my adulthoodโฆlook at all those cooked vegetables ๐ฅ lol. And one of my favorite cookbooks โThe Everlasting Meal,โ by Tamar Adler, I like it because itโs like a philosophy and stories with recipes thrown in too, so itโs actually a cookbook you can sit down and read. (No houseplants were tortured by being taken to the kitchen and watered in front of all this planty carnage)
How are you all doing today? ๐ซถ๐ผ๐ I wanna hear all about it !!

Hi famous 5 members of the new Watering Hole!
Just settling down for the evening here.
My horse ๐ had a good watering at the Hole and I'm off to get him ready for the night ๐
We've had off and on weather and it's been in the low 40's at night, so he doesn't need his horse blanket.
This is an lol ๐ ๐
but, wish that it were true!Sweet dreams ya'll...

Good afternoon #TheWateringHole friends!! Iโm on board with it๐๐. And I think Heidi @princesspitstop has an updated list. @DreamMachine look ๐ at all your grown up veggies! ๐ฅฆ๐ฅ๐ฅฌ๐ซ๐. The cookbook looks interesting too. Economy and grace. Nice combo!! Havenโt posted on #GregGivesBackGiveaway yet. Iโve got a euphorbia thatโs got ancient ties and has cuttings from one coast to the other ๐. Need to take pics. Love that you kept the name Phyllis even after learning sheโs a pothos ๐คฃ. Itโs supposed to rain ๐ง๏ธ ๐ฒ the next few days!!! Such an unusual occurrence here. We will all have our noses pressed to the window staring out at something new and different than what we get 360 days of the year! ๐คช๐คฃ๐๐น๐ We actually look forward to a few days where we have an excuse to not be outside.
@DreamMachine Even if you have won!! Only this time because it's Greg's 3rd Birthday ๐๐ ๐ Thank you for posting Nadia!! I've been deep in my closet trying to find Narnia!!! I've got fire trucks outside. I guess someone else is fed up with the complex too! Lol JK it doesn't look like anyone is hurt. They probably left a pot of water on the stove like I've done way too many times that I'd like to admit. I potted up 3 new Hoya today!
1. Burtoniae
2. Wayetii Tricolor
3. Macrophylla
I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of their day! ๐

@CutePolypremum love the horsey story ๐๐ฅฐ. I donโt know if you know I have a horse ๐ด. Rode him today and actually have a blanket for him. He wonโt need it tonight as the temps are still too mild ๐คฃ ๐คช. My horse lives the good life as most horses do! Gets his house cleaned 2x a day. Food brought to him without even having to ask or prepare. Constant supply of cool fresh water. Someone to groom him, like a spa day almost every day ๐คช. Lots of treats even when he hasnโt done anything super special ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ Has a podiatrist (farrier) chiropractor and doctor on call 24/7 (vet). ๐โโ๏ธ ๐ฎโ๐จ ๐ heโs got it good. And Iโm happy to keep him happy ๐
@princesspitstop @DreamMachine isnโt it the 3rd birthday this month for #GregGivesBackGiveaway ? Gregโs been around longer than 3 years. My daughter joined 2021 and I joined January 2022.
@DreamMachine Your succulents are GORGEOUS ๐ฅฐ Is there anything you can't grow??? ๐ชด Are those "fresh beets" ๐ซ โค๏ธ
@MariansOasis Wow I don't know ๐คฏ I joined at the end of 2023. Not sure how long it had been going on before that.
@MariansOasis
Hi Marian!
I've been following you for quite a while and know that you're a horse ๐ lover. You are so lucky!!!!
I think that you travel sometimes to horse shows and exhibitions and that your daughter also competes? (If my memory serves me well).
You're such a good mom...it's easy to spot because of the love you give him...the snacks, rides, grooming, and, he has a chiropractor and a great vet. That's awesome!
I spent my whole 4 years of high school in Germany and practically lived at the stables. They had Arabians, which were so beautiful. It was one of my special times of life experiences.
Please kiss your horse ๐ on his nose for me!
๐ Thanks sooooo much for sharing.
BTW...what is his name?

@DreamMachine Nadia, that is a beautiful Aloe! I just love that! Please add me to the watering hole- thanks๐ชด๐บ
@princesspitstop @MariansOasis oh YEAH, even if you have won you can enter woohoo! But the real question now isโฆcan Greg count? LOL! I didnโt know your daughter was also on here Marian! Thatโs so sweet ๐ฅน And yeah, I couldnโt just straight up change Phylisโs name, that would be rude! ๐
Dang TWO fire trucks! Hope everyoneโs okay! Did you find Mr. Tumnus while you were in Narnia? ๐

@CutePolypremum I hope you have a lovely evening Joanie ๐ฅฐ Iโve still got a couple hours till sunset but it is dark today with all the ๐ง๏ธ ๐๐ซถ๐ผ
@Ponytailmom Thank you! Named after the octopus witch in the Little Mermaid ๐ค Youโre added!
@princesspitstop I cannot grow the will to fold my laundry within 5-7 business days I tell you what ๐คฃ
Yes theyโre beets ๐ซ And I got lucky they still had the tops on so I cooked the beet greens with garlic and all the other greens. ๐ฅฌ

@DreamMachine ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ I feel you on that one! I just now got done hanging all the clothes up from the other day!!
@MariansOasis @princesspitstop I just re-read the giveaway post because I am apt to skim over things. It says โGreg Gives Back is 3โ so I think they mean the actual give-away event, and not the whole app. ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ
@DreamMachine I believe you're right!! ๐๐
@DreamMachine 1. Youโve been holding out on us with those aloes!! Your lace aloes are gorgeous! What variety is the 1st one? Itโs like an octopus with arms going everywhere! 2. No need to rush the laundry folding. The longer you wait, the less there is to fold because everyone has to go to the laundry room every morning to get something.
@DreamMachine your veggies look good, Iโll take some. I really need to take a break I see another plant I want. Your lace aloe is beautiful ๐คฉ wow. Hi I have a problem
@RefinedSandwort yes I do it all the time let the laundry sit. It always disappears either the kids take there clothes slowly or just fold it
@CutePolypremum ooooh Arabians! Theyโre so handsome ๐ฅฐ. Lucky you to have had that time in your life with hoses! They teach us so much. My guy is Rowdy, aka Angel Baby. We want him to live up to the Angel part, not the Rowdy part ๐
@DreamMachine my daughterโs still on Greg but no longer active. She preferred keeping a plant journal ๐ so stopped using Greg for reminders. It was fun when she was on!
@RefinedSandwort aahhh a method to the madness! ๐งบ ๐๐งฆ ๐คฃ
Since itโs getting cold I donโt have any plant news right now other then I lost my pothos to the cold ๐ I did get my succulents inside , since I havenโt been outside as much this week, Iโve been foraging and doing plant crafts with all the things I find. Here are some things Iโve done today and this week!
@TidyTigerpear absolutely! Weโll add you ๐ค
@RefinedSandwort @MariansOasis @princesspitstop
@RefinedSandwort @MariansOasis @princesspitstop
@RefinedSandwort LOL!! ๐ Thank you! I always thought my big aloe was a regular olโ aloe vera but I suppose I donโt know for certain. She also was getting pushed out of her pot by her babies a year or two ago, but after after a repot and surgical removal of those babies, lol, I put her in a good spot and she has slowly been straightening back up again. Sheโs totally like an octopus!
And I like the way you think re laundry! ๐งบ ๐ Itโs totally true too!
And I like the way you think re laundry! ๐งบ ๐ Itโs totally true too!
@princesspitstop this is several hours later but my brain just did a record scratchโฆdid you just get a burtoniae?? ๐๐ซถ๐ผ๐
@DreamMachine Skeerrrt Skeerrrt ๐คฃ๐
@DreamMachine Yes ma'am I'm pretty sure that's what it is. ๐คทโโ๏ธ Lol
@TidyTigerpear I love foraging for plant crafts too!! My daughterโs school has the best fluffy lichens that I love using and so many nutshells. I also love making Fairy dolls out of dollar store faux plant material!
@FitBrowallia I do have 7 lace aloe pups that are looking for a new home if you want one ๐
@DreamMachine YOU MADE THOSE??? ๐ฑ๐คฏ๐๐๐๐ OMG You never fail to impress me Nadia!!! They are beautiful!!!!!!
@princesspitstop aww shucks thank you โบ๏ธ I go where the crazy brain takes me ๐
@DreamMachine The 2nd one is supposed to be you right???โค๏ธ๐ฅฐ
@DreamMachine omg those fairy dolls are so beautiful! You are quite talented!๐๐๐จ
@princesspitstop That was actually a gift for my niece who loved Frozen at the time ๐ I made 3 dolls for my sister in laws 3 girls, let me see if I can find the pic of all of them.
But also likeโฆI couldnโt make one right now. My brain stopped making those a couple years ago and said that was nice, what next?

@MariansOasis Thank you! Itโs a trade off sometimes for sure. I can make beautiful things, but I canโt remember to feed my self ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ
@DreamMachine Those are so cool! ๐ I absolutely love them! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ You really are very talented. I know, I know, flattery will get me everywhere!
@princesspitstop yes maโam it certainly WILL lol ๐
@MariansOasis hereโs a quote from โThe Everlasting Meal,โ (pic 1๏ธโฃ )that I just adore. The whole book is like that, in the middle of recipes, itโs very โfeel good,โ and the author Tamar Adler was inspired by the depression era classic, โHow to Cook a Wolf,โ by MFK Fisher, another favorite of mine!
@DreamMachine yes I want thank you
@TidyTigerpear Kaitlyn those are so pretty and creative. Great job
