and 'Gramps' yet. So if this moniker describes you or your spouse, please give my esteemed hubby a phone call because frankly I'm dying to start posting some new Baby Peanut pics!! <-- Note the very gender-neutral green color being used for the time being.)
And on to one of today's posts which I'll call Bait and Switch.
The background is this: I did the unthinkable and bought an orchid from Ikea. Ikea! See Brad and I have been known to starve an orchid or 2 in our time, which is why said purchase is so laughable. But surprisingly, this one did very well until Brad was gone in Orlando last week, I opted to do some cleaning and unintentionally moved the orchid in front of the *ahem* heating vent. Blooms started curling up and spitting off the plant almost instantly. Granted, it wasn't in the best of shape to begin with but still: Please refer to below Old picture as reference.
Not wanting Brad to return home and chastise my mistake and debunk any further orchid purchases, H and I promptly went in search of a replacement orchid to pull the ole' bait 'n switch (please see New). Let's just say Brad hasn't noticed a thing to this date. Ha!
