Why can you not use soil from the plain old garden? I found myself wondering this as I looked out upon our mass amount of healthy vegetation.... and weeds... ok, so I might have to pull out some weeds... but I could do that. Yep, so I run out quick (very quick, baby is sleeping and I can't have my face in the sun) scoop up some dirt. Thinking proudly- "I'm so smart, who would spend money for potting soil?" I get inside to clean up the few weeds I acquired with my dirt and notice why you need potting soil - bugs! There had to be millions in that dish! All different kinds too. Not a huge fan of bugs really and I'm not dumb enough to keep them in my house. (maybe dumb enough to think that garden soil could be potting soil)
Needless to say, there's a nice pile of dirt just outside our back steps, if anyone is looking for some soil for planting an outdoor plant...

LOL :) ahahahahaa ... I can just see you running out to the garden (all proudly) - just like the time you were so proud of your self for finding a "stray" golf ball :D I love these memories. It was a nice idea. You should blog about the "stray" golf ball incident. That needs to be shared ;)
