Simple piecrust, spider plants, perfect compost

Daily Newsletter for Thursday, November 9, 2017

We'll to the woods no more,
The laurels are all cut,
The bowers are bare of bay
That once the Muses wore;
The year draws in the day
And soon will evening shut:
The laurels all are cut,
We'll to the woods no more.
–A. E. Housman (1859–1936)
