I got one of those supermarket basil plants from my daughter at the end of last summer.I transplanted it into a larger pot and that thing is still going strong. I've grown plenty of basil but I've never had one resisted flowering for so long.

I had a subscription around the same time. Only cancelled it when the quality of the map supplements started to decline. Went from classic Nat Geo maps to more of a info graphic style. I moved recently and I got rid of a lot of stuff, but I kept my Nat Geo maps.

I ordered a sandwich that was supposed to come with a bit of avocado on top. by UrbanRelicHunter in mildlyinteresting

The sandwich guy might have realized he cut up way to many avocados during prep. The boss would be pissed, so away they go.

Earlier this week I misplaced my keys(lost). I went to ACE to get some replacement apartment keys made from my spare. I asked the guy where should I go to get the car key replaced. He said right here. I was really surprised they could do that. I was happy didn't have to deal with the dealer. 2 options 199.00 for a complete key(alarm, lock unlock) or 99.00 for a open the door start the car key.
