Hello, Carol. Hello, Dr. Hortfreud. Welcome back to the garden. You summoned me, Carol? Yes, I wanted to discuss UAPs. UAPs? What YouTube videos have you been watching now, Carol? I've been watching the garden! And what have you seen? UAPs! Carol, you better explain what you mean by UAPs before we go much further with this session. Okay, Dr. Hortfreud.

Dr. Hortfreud Returns to Discuss Rabbits
"Hello, Carol!" Hello, Dr. Hortfreud. Is it time for another session? "Yes, it's been a while since our last session and I've noticed something we should talk about." Something to talk about? I can't imagine what that might be. "Really, you can't imagine? Did you see the picture you took of the rabbit in your garden path?" I did...

Purely coincidental, I … [Read more...] about Dr. Hortfreud Returns to Discuss Rabbits
Dr. Hortfreud Returns!
A recent session with my garden therapist. Dr. Hortfreud. Hello Carol. Hi Dr. Hortfreud. It's been quite a while since our last session, Carol.

What do you mean by that, Carol?" "I bought pants for gardening." "Oh, is that all? You've already bought at least four pairs of shoes just for gardening and another pair for mowing. And look at all the crocuses you planted. They sure are pretty. And I saw that new hand hoe in the garage, too. How many hoes do you have … [Read more...] about I Might Have Crossed a Line
The Man Who Grew Vegetable Marrows
It would make a great Jeopardy game show clue. "The Man Who Grew Vegetable Marrows". The answer: "Who is Hercule Poirot?" We might also accept the answer, "What is the title of Chapter 3 of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie?" I've been watching "Poirot" on Netflix for several weeks and finally in season 7, episode 1, in The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, the famous Belgian detective from countless Agatha Christie mysteries had just retired to a village called King's Abbott and … [Read more...] about The Man Who Grew Vegetable Marrows
Mowing – A Session with Dr. Hortfreud
Hello Dr. Hortfreud. Hello, Carol. How are you and did you want to talk about the iris that is re-blooming that never re-bloomed before? No, Dr. Hortfreud, I want to talk about mowing. Again? Yes, again, though I don't think we've talked about it that much. It's your time, so proceed. What about mowing? Well, Dr. Hortfreud, I think up my best ideas when I'm mowing and I'm concerned that once this season is over, I won't have any more ideas until next spring. I was thinking about … [Read more...] about Mowing – A Session with Dr. Hortfreud
