Prediction!

Okay so far... :D

Here comes another prediction:

TPBM is actually not looking forward to set all their clocks again. (We have to do so tonight...)
 
No. We had our second shot yesterday and in 2 weeks I'm going out thrifting with a friend I haven't been able to be with in a year.

TPBM has missed socializing and is ready to get back to seeing people.
 
TPBM will plant a tree in there garden this Spring.

I knew someone would post before I could get this posted. :rolleyes: So, I'll post it anyway...

No, but I keep wanting to start a linden tree (also called a "lime tree" in other parts of the world) from seed, but I keep forgetting to collect seeds from the linden tree a few blocks over when it's in bloom in late June. :oops: It's a lengthy process though (much like this post) that involves keeping it in a Ziploc bag with damp paper towels inside to keep it moist and you have to keep it in the fridge through the fall and winter, and then it supposedly sprouts the next spring. It's a very finicky seed to sprout in nature, as it requires extended cool and damp conditions for it to germinate. But then after it germinates you have to plant it in a small pot until it grows to a seedling, then it has to be transplanted into a larger pot outside, then it has to be winterized in that pot and it has to grow to a juvenile tree before it can be transplanted into the ground the next fall. All in all, it's about a 2 1/2 year process from seed cultivation to a tree you can actually plant, but it seems like an interesting challenge. I'd also like to start a once-believed-to-be-extinct Dawn Redwood from seed as well. There's one in the park near where I grew up as a kid. One day! :p

TPBM likes to eat fresh fruit, even if it isn't the prettiest plum on the block.

Absolutely true! Oftentimes the ugliest are the tastiest. I'm always wary of "perfect" produce, because it's usually been cultivated/engineered for appearance and not taste.

TPBM knows of a relatively rare species of tree somewhere near you.
 
True, there is a very old beech tree on the Cape that has become a forest unto itself.


TPBM would like to see this tree as it's quite a feast for the eyes.
