Where Have I Been?

A flower snuck into my herb garden, hiding under the lettuce.  I also have dill, parsley, swiss chard, and a few other munchies in the grow holes.

That is what a couple of cyber friends asked when I suddenly reappeared on MyLot after having been AWOL far too long. I came back to see if this is working better than it did before. Yes, but there are still some very frustrating problems with the mobile access. Lately I seem to be doing a lot more "computing" on my cell phone than on the big computer, and no, MyLot still will not allow me to post from my Samsung Note3. Comments and likes work, but I cannot submit a post. In a few more sentences I will find out if it is working with the Edge Browser. Did I tell you I am loving Windows 10 and Edge as much as I loathed and detested Windows 8. Yay! Nothing new, expect that as pictured a Vinca plant came up as a "volunteer" in my AeroGarden planter (yes, I bought one of the new ones with LED lamps, love it). I thought I planted Greek basil seeds in the grow pot, seeds I found scattered on the table after leaving plants unattended for a month-long vacation. Plants were of course dead, but seeds all over. They sprouted overnight, but the leaves looked funny. Pretty little plant, so I left it in the grow hole. Before long there was a stalk and what promised to become a white flower developed...a vinca (Madagascar Periwinkle) and NO I have no idea where the seeds came from. The lighter leaf to the right is of course lettuce. How is everybody?

Pretty and toxic or strongly medicinal depending on who is reporting, I think, so maybe it should not have been in the same water as the lettuce @1hopefulman

Very happy with Windows 10 @crazyhorseladycx which surprised me much as I had planned on hating it as I did hate Windows 8.

Great and glad you're back. mylotbugs is interested in knowing what does and doesn't work on the devices we use. He wants to know which browsers we use too. Pay him a visit when you figure out what does and doesn't work and he may be able to get mylot to work better on your tablet [is it?] too.

My mum was a great gardener. She always had seedlings springing up that weren't to supposed to be where they appeared.
