It was a phone-fight than spanned an ocean, since he was in London while I was in New York. Which may make it the Most Expensive Fight Ever that didn't involve bookies or trashed hotel rooms.

I want to camp out in the back yard until the deal is closed in six weeks. Do any of you reading this plant gardens? My father is a botanist, and I've always wanted my own yard, where I could grow a ton of zucchini and chrysanthemums.

Yes, I raise a few veggies and flowers each summer. If you want something easy to grow, always plant zucchini and chrysanthemums. Zucchini grows well in late spring, but when it gets really hot, it fades fast. You will either have so much you can't give it away fast enough or you won't have any at all. Mums may struggle all through the heat of summer, but give them a few good rains in the early fall and they will bloom right up to frost. It really takes a hard freeze to kill them. This is a good time of year to pick a place for a compost pile.
