George is definitely one of the best gift-givers I know but he really outdid himself for my 30th birthday! He's listened to me drone on and on about what a green thumb I have and how the only reason that my garden is totally behind/achlorotic/beset-by-aphids is because of the English climate and how *if only* I had a greenhouse, we'd be up to our ears in tomatoes by now. Behold: the birthday greenhouse! You know you are 30 when this is the best gift you can imagine AND you are thrilled to stay home on Saturday night and put it together! I'm happy to report that it is definitely doing its job and the purple sprouting broccoli seedlings I put in there have doubled in size in just about a week. Sigh. Now that's love.
