Can't decide...

Which looks prettier?

The plain star?

Or the sparkly star?

[EDIT] I bought the plain one. Yay!
Nagi's egg finally hatched! Yay!

His character is actually pretty lame, but I'm happy for him. (I still miss Temari!)

Also, I had a thought. Does anyone else think Rima and Nagi are going to be a couple? They have so much in common! Like both being Amu's best friend and both being a guardian... Also, Rima did hate Nagi at the start, which I think certainly means romance later on.

I really need to find a shugo chara icon. But I haven't found any I like yet. Bah.

Lettuce - The internet says that lettuce is one of the easiest crops to grow. If that's true, why haven't I been able to get even one plant to survive to maturity?Everything else I planted this year is doing really well. What am I doing wrong with lettuce?

Tomatoes - My cherry tomato plant flowered while I was away and now has a couple little green tomatoes on it. I hope some more of the flowers turn into food. I think next year I should plant some decorative flowers to attract bees towards my veggie flowers.

Cucumbers - My cucumbers have had flowers for what felt like forever but nothing was happening with them. Finally this week tiny cucumbers formed on one of the plants. Yay! I hope they all get big enough to eat.

Carrots - I have no clue when to harvest these things. Or how. But they appear to be growing. Curse you, root plants for being so confusing.

Spinach - I am going to attempt to grow spinach entirely indoors under my grow lamp. I figure since it's a crop you pick before it matures (for baby spinach anyway), it should be ok staying inside.

Hydroponics - At the wedding shower, ben and I got a nifty little hydroponic tabletop gardening kit. It makes me feel like a nasa scientist. It came with flowers as the starter plants, but if I manage to grow them successfully I think I'll get herbs next. The only annoying thing is that it's designed so you have to buy their proprietary seed cups. I will have to see about hacking that. The cups are a bit overpriced.
