Welcome back to the Garden Gab Club! Today Tessa and Molly are discussing everything from apple picking to our **funky fall feelings** As our girl Bridget Jones once said, “It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going okay, another falls spectacularly to pieces.” We couldn't agree more Bridget. Everyone needs an existential crisis every once in a while, right? Tessa's **feelings** were triggered by a recent birthday and has left her staring wistfully out her kitchen window at her languishing Black Gum tree asking some life's deepest questions while researching Japanese mending techniques (it all connects, we promise). Molly's **feelings** were drudged up from a gloriously inspiring summer at various conferences and has left her asking some cute little existential questions like... is she doing work that even matters, is she even good at this planty/garden thing, and how do you pluralize words that end in "s"?? Thankfully, Molly and Tessa are not left in the deep dark cavern of their feelings and are brought back into the light with a game of "I thank you for these truths," a game that has served Molly well now for over a decade (please listen to episode for playing instructions...) Tessa and Molly do make it out of the quagmire of feels into some plant chat, basking in the glow of their favorite fall plants of the moment. This episode is a reminder that sometimes all those funky feelings need is a friend that grabs you by your shoulders, looks you in the eye, and tells you what is true! Now go forth and find someone to play I thank you for these truths with, and let Tessa and Molly know how it goes :)   Thanks for joining the gab!
