Re: goldfish revisited + Voodoo

Brian_ I attempted to plant one of those outdoors one year as they do OK in
the ground here. Ahem, except when your Labrador retriever eats them. She
chewed that wonderfully meadow muffin smelly thing right to the ground.
Needless to say, I gave it to a friend whose dogs are less interested in
eating stinky things. Sigh.
