Very Happy Buddha ...

Bob and I drink green tea every day. But I find it tedious draining the liquid off and scraping all the leaves out of the cup into the compost pail I have in the kitchen. So I decided to just walk out the back door and dump the old tea, leaves and all, into our herb garden.

Bob saw me doing this and asked me if I should be pouring them into the plants that surround his Happy Buddha on the porch. "I'm just not sure if that would be appropriate," he wondered.

"Well," I said, "I think appropriate went out the window yesterday when Willa was feeding Buddha crackers."

Happy sweeping!
