plants vs. fruits

1. Finally got my plants transplanted last night. Whole Foods has had really good-looking herbs and such the last few times I've been there, and I acquired some yellow plum tomatoes, Japanese eggplant, ginger mint, basil, and oregano. Now all I need is more pots to put them in, and more dirt. I ran out of potting soil last night and had to put all four tomato plants in one giant pot rather than two to that size pot as I'd planned. Ah well. This way, I can get more supplies next time we get out to Target, and maybe I'll eventually get to put all four in their very own pots rather than having to choose the best two somewhere along the line. Luckily I don't have that problem with the eggplant, as two of them self-selected.

2. If they pave Paradise and put up a pineapple parking lot, is that where you park your big pineapple cart?

I (in my infinite attentiveness) seem not to have noticed your plants. Are they on the balcony?

Yup, they're all balconic. No way they'd get enough sun and air in the apartment. Also it's easier to squish the little green worms somewhere other than the carpet. Only problem is that when I repot I have to put a mat down to keep from raining dirt on the neighbors. It's tempting to not bother when they're down there puffing away, but I don't want to spoil the truce-y thing we have about that by abusing my privileges.
