Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you

  • Something humourous that happened to you

  • Something frustrating that happened to you

  • A quick question

  • A request for recommendations

  • Pictures of your pet

  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant

  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

In late breaking garden news there are six caterpillars that I can see. We don't have a lot of good foliage so I will have to move some of them from plant to plant.

Also the magnolia is flowering but I will have to reset my pixelfed password to post pictures!

Our monarch caterpillars have been gone so long the plant has new leaves and is well on its way to recovering! Feels crazy you're still up there in your tropical weather in winter 😋

Yeah, back when I lived in the city I used to like visiting here in autumn because it felt like getting extra summer. Now I'm acclimatised it just feels like winter to me though. 🙃

Feeling a bit sorry for the oldest of the plants, they did not sign up to be eaten for so long! Will have to see if I can mix up some fertilizer for them as a consolation.
