I have a Römertopf clay baker that gets used a couple of times a year, but usually I find them at Goodwill and sell them on eBay. That generally only works if it was rarely or never used.

The plans for today were doused with the rain and I haven't seemed to get moving doing something else, just little stuff. Dishwasher, laundry, etc. There's still time to accomplish great housekeeping feats, and I predict those will have to do with the volume of stuff in tomorrow's trash. Several times today I've asked myself "why am I keeping this?"

I did step out after lunch to scatter some dry fertilizer for the trees and there was a plastic container with several schoolhouse lily bulbs that I poked into a small bed near the birdbath. Yesterday I "healed in" (forestry trick for keeping seedling trees alive until planting) some canna lilies near the driveway - they will bide their time there until the new bed is dug and they can be planted permanently. They weren't going to survive in the bucket where they were stashed.
