I am not a farmer!

I am on my last tomato plant. The other three have died. The last one, not doing so well. My plan: buy more to plant and kill! The plants are relatively cheap compare to the money I spent on soil and the bucket material.

The bell pepper is fairing well! However the one bell pepper fruit I have growing has gotten to golf ball size and isn't getting any bigger. The other two blossoms died and dropped off. So far this has been a colossal waste of money. I could have bought so many tomatoes and bell peppers to eat with that money. . .Maybe I need to buy some fertilizer?

My sister and I are going to the King's head pub in Santa Monica to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee Luncheon! Best friend doesn't want to go, she apparently feels uncomfortable about toasting the Queen. Sister wanted an old friend of Mom's to come with us, but she has church service to go to. I expect to have a high old time with sister!
I have the DVR set up to record all the programs on BBC America. I am so looking forward to the Thames pageant!

Cousin has finally broken up with Girlfriend. We have wondered for a long time what was going on, what with   his mom telling sister how the ex had set up a separate home inside hers and had stopped talking to her the second semester, and the fact that cousin and ex were no longer friends on Facebook. He moves out of the house this week, and apparently he is footing the bill for both places. I'll like to know what kind of financial arrangement he has brokered with the ex, but I doubt he will tell me.It's really not my business now, is it?
