Bane of My Existence

Once upon a time MC decided to plant a lovely Gingko Biloba tree between Winger and Oakwood. A female Gingko tree. Wanna know how I know it's a female Gingko? Let me let Wiki tell you just how I figured that out. 
Female plants do not produce conesTwo ovules are formed at the end of a stalk, and after pollination, one or both develop into seeds. The seed is 1.5-2 cm long. Its fleshy outer layer is light yellow-brown, soft, and fruit-likeIt is attractive in appearance, but contains butanoic acid and smells like rancid butter (which contains the same chemical) or feces[7] when fallen.
Rancid butter and feces. Yuuuuummmmmmyyyyyyy...

About Me

My photo
I love pretty pictures and fashion, decorating and paper. I use Harry Potter pseudonyms for all of my friends because as of now they are skeptical of the blogging world. I expect when we grow and up and move away and have babies we will all have blogs because that seems to be the thing to do. And when that day comes I will laugh and gleefully answer all their questions about blogger, thankful that they can finally share in the obsession with me! And secretly, I will be very proud that my archives stretch back much farther then theirs. Pennies From Heaven is where I write everything. I put my favorite photographs there, my favorite fashions, thoughts, stories, and humorous conversations between Hermione and I.
