baloney tree
Last weekend was one for yardwork. Mowing of lawn, removal of 2 viney type things, removal of one large shrub including roots, removal of 2 dead arborvitae, transplant of one flowering shrub, and major pruning all around.

There was one leafy bush thing that I was enjoying pruning. The leaves and stems are nice and thin which made it easy going. The plant also had a beautiful fragrance which was especially noticeable as I was trimming it. I pointing this out to Maureen, who remarked quite casually that the reason I was enjoying the smell so much is because the thing smells like bologna. I hadn’t quite put my finger on it, but Reen was 100% correct. The little green bush smells like bologna. Did we buy the right house or what?
