Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs

Mold also needs love.

I pretend to water my fake plants.

Feel as though, not feel like.

Is that how she shows love to Earl?

I miss Roscoe, looking at her with those eyes of his …

I think she’s going around the bend.

Remember to only use artificial water for artificial flowers

When hubby bought a red rose for me, he wanted something to wrap it to prevent it from making other things wet. The lady chuckled and said it was artificial. Could have fooled us. (I still have it on display even though he’s gone.)

That’s how I felt anger seeing a man kicking a robodog – basically a heap of metal and software.

She must like the Bobby Darin song “Artificial Flowers”!

Since I kill everything, (including cactuses/cacti?), I’ve pretty much given up and 90 percent of my lanai plants are artificial. I’ll throw one or two real ones in the mix and hope for the best.

Never question the wisdom of a grandmother.

Opal, and her Random Acts of… Random-ness.

Shouldn’t she be using one of those protectant sprays for plastics, like XPS or Armor All?

As a gardener, I cringed at Opal abusing real flowers, lol!

Took home a plant once that someone had put out with the trash. Took me two days to realize it was fake.

Earl is lucky android technology is still years away.

A perfect breeding environment for fungus gnats!

A little something for the bugs.

same reason I comb my toupee.

That’s INSANE

I hope she uses extra fertilizer: the flowers seem to grow kinda slow…

But…they’re fake.

She can put it in the dishwasher on the top shelf to keep it clean and free from dust. It adds a bit of class to your everyday dishwasher.

Did she murder real flowers just so she could show love to fake ones?

brain fart. But a good comeback to cover it

Hey Opal…..try that maneuver on the top of Earl’s head……

She’s lost it

She is overflowing with love.

Should spray them with Endust.

Artificial flowers matter

Thatś sweet, but sounds a lot like artificial intelligence.

I can understand as one who has gardened for too many years to count. Watering plants is therapeutic.

That’s pathetic

I stayed at my Parents home and ran their store for a couple weeks …… My Mother told me to make sure that I watered her plants …… so I did “ALL” of them. A day or so after they came back my Parents call and thanked me ….. then my Mother said that the tree at the bottom of the front stairs was artificial and it was a bit wet down there ……. ;)

If they brighten up your day, show them some respect.

And she constantly complains about Earl…
