Why wasn't I born with that proverbial green thumb? Don't enjoy gardening, so have spent (in my opinion) far too much weekend time this month digging up weeds so I could plant some flowers and veggies.

Pie!fic!!!

Very cute and clever!

Thank you - I'm so glad you liked it!

Aaahh, two? This one is actually a couple years older, but apparently the other brother was far from his mind while he stalked. :) Wee!James fic to look forward to - yea! (will be interested to see what names you've given the brothers as tart-thief has a name but it just didn't fit in the drabble easily)
