OK so my 37 year old brother is living rent free in my spare bedroom for the last 8 months or so. I knew I had to be be out of town for a week at a conference in San Diego. I walk him around the yard showing him my beautiful pots of cucumber vines, my gorgeous pot of mini muskmelons, my lovely squash vines, and all of my beautiful potted tomatoes and some flowers as well. I show him exactly how I water (usually only need to about 3 times per week because I have that gel stuff mixed in the soil and the pots are big).
I come back today and all of my cucumbers are brittle dry dead, the muskmelons are probably history as well. Three of my tomato plants are singed to a crisp, and all of my potted flowers are too far gone to save.
I WANT TO KILL HIM. Then as I bring in what I could pull off the dead cucumber vines he asks me what I'm going to do with them and suggests I make some refridgerator pickles like my mom used to. I almost stuck a cucumber in his big mouth.
