Geography lesson

I feel like such a dunce. While in a recent drama "theory" class, the teacher was reviewing the history of drama and it's beginnings. And she was talking about different countries and their styles of drama. She talked of African drama and I immediately thought of Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Nigeria and the Congo. And then I asked about Egyptian drama and I was looked at funny and was told it was African drama. Yeow...my mind never connects Egypt with being African. The teacher laughed and said that not everything African is Congo-like. I guess Egyptian things are bigger than life to me...and oh so interesting that I just don't lump it in with being African. I actually had to pull up  a map to see where it was. I guess I need to review geography a bit more huh? Not my best subject in school anyway. I just figured out the whole Great Britain /UK thing, thanks to a great interesting article on the web. But don't ask me to explain it.

All but one

 I started to bed down the yard for winter. I got the first of the beds in the front done. They look sooo naked. But I did leave one plant in a pot. The popcorn plant. I still smells so good. It has been a werid year for plants and it grew really tall but had no flowers. Lat year one grew multiple flowers on side stems but this year..nope...just grew tall. But the leaves smells exactly like buttered popcorn when crushed. MMMMM.

Here is a before and after photo.
