oops

Of all the shirts I bought recently, one was marked DRY CLEAN ONLY. I wore it today. It was a very humid day. After I came home from work, I transplanted some herbs from pots to a planter on the deck, and within 10 minutes I was dripping wet. As soon as I came inside, I showered, changed clothes, and put the sweaty shirt, along with a few other things, in the wash machine. Cold/cold, hand wash cycle. I didn't realize until I unloaded the washer that I had made an oops.

The shirt looks fine. It did not shrink. I'm not inclined to get it dry cleaned if it comes through the handwash cycle OK.

The reason I transplanted the basil and tarragon was because they had both begun to yellow. They were in individual pots, and no matter how often I watered them, the soil dried out very quickly. So I moved them both to the deck planter, which up to now contained only a single sweet basil plant that managed to survive the caterpillar onslaught. The plant is only about 7-8 inches tall, but it is a nice, deep green. Now it has company.

Meanwhile, the basil in the raised bed is vibrant deep green. I have 3-4 plants, which I set near the tomatoes. This means that during the day, they're protected from the worst of the sun. The raised bed also holds onto water better. The leaves have a few bug holes, but overall they look pretty good.

Lots of green tomatoes.

Chives, too. And still a little lettuce.
