Someone said garden "bed" and Lillian went for it. ;-))))  

George, I think Anne knows exactly what she's doing when she just "chucks
stuff in there...."  She doesn't tell you to go plant stuff "anywhere" does
she?I know those little dogs that hunt toads.  Act like they've got peanut
butter on the roof of their mouth after they catch one.  Margaret, whose
beagle couldn't tell the difference between a toad and a mouse by sight,
but sure could tell the difference by taste.
