It's actually a planter full of ferns, sansevieria* and gourds that I passed on my way home today after running a few errands.

I am not feeling so productive today, but I did go out and buy $500 worth of wine for the reception for our symposium. (Much cheaper if I buy it than if the caterer picks it up, even though the caterer physically picked it up from the State Store.) On the way there I purchased my Christmas stamps, so all that's required now is assembly. Everything I need to make the aprons is likewise assembled in my office or the upstairs kitchen. Now all that's called for is a little motivation...

*Or maybe a bromeliad...

Yup, it's a bromeliad. We sell that one; it's got a pretty red flower spike.

There were other bromeliads in the planter -- but I hadn't paid close enough attention when I was photographing this, and I don't speak fluent bromeliad, if you get my drift.

I don't speak fluent bromeliad

I don't, either - THANK YOU for not asking me the name of the thing! :b
