Not up to code? Fake grass?

We went for a walk with our block club and some building inspectors
the other day to review properties with violations, most if which were
major or structural. The one that surprised me the most was that this
person had outdoor carpeting in there backyard instead of grass.
Apparently, that was a major issue for some people.

That is wrong for so many reasons. I don't understand because grass is so easy to grow there.

well, unclassy for sure in Buffalo, where it gets enough precipitation to not worry about water costs, I would think, but in another areas of the country these are practically encouraged because of stolen water fees and drought & fires and whatnot... I still coudn't dig it, even I did own a home. I'd rather have a cheap rock garden than astroturf. but a lot of people do that here.

I swear... you should have to pass a class before you are allowed to own a home.

The brown vase from globe market

I finally bought this vase. I saw it like a year ago at Globe Market
for like $30. Everytime I eat there I say I am going to buy it and
this time it was down to $13 and I couldn't resist. I am just sad
that it was made in vietnam and not by some local artisan. I
scratched that sticker right the fuck off as soon as I got it in the
car, call me pretentious - I don't care.

P.S. Their crab cakes are really yummy.

Globe remains one of my favorite places to eat. It's so easy and tasty to roll over there after work for some soup.

So freaking cute

I am having the hardest time not buying a playmate for basra. This
one is too small though. I am afraid he would eat it.

Had a thought about the bird thing. I wonder if the one bird went after the other. Yes it has been known to happen. How would a bird fall out of a cage on its own. Then once it was on the ground it still thinks it can fly but goes no where and is a goner. Or maybe your tortise only ate what was left from the other bird.
