I was recently on a two-week trip and, as usual, Mimi had a dogsitter come stay with her overnight, feed her, etc. while I was gone.
When I returned home, my fake pink daisies from Ikea had water in the glass vase. Umm, fake flowers don't need to be watered. In fact, I had to dry them out fast to prevent them from molding.
Oddly, the real potted plant a few feet over was wilted and later died from lack of water.
The dogsitter got the giggles when I pointed out this scatterbrained oversight.
With this kind of discernment for living things, I'm just glad I didn't leave a stuffed toy animal out while I was gone.
