This one might not make the police blotter reports but a basil thief is upsetting the equilibrium on one block of Carroll Gardens. According to Lost City, someone has been stealing basil from a planter box in the front yard of a house on President, causing multi-generational distress: “The children are quite disturbed by your actions. And so are the adults,” reads the postscript to a sign telling the thief to “Stop taking our basil!” Any word on whether the culprit has been apprehended yet?
Dave that’s too funny, and followed up by Slopefarm’s humor.. I love it!
Anyhow, I have a big pot of Basil in my front yard and passers-by pinch it back, as a result the Basil is thriving.
“The children are quite disturbed” arrghhhhhhh… those kids must be having an awfully boring Summer if that’s what’s disturbing them! 🙂
The What predicted that it would come to this; people stealing food from one another.
sage advise from slopefarm.
In that hood it might well be an oreganosed crime syndicate.

Use some deer netting if you think its just squirrels, cats or rats. They can’t read so that’ll be the only option. I have some I can give to you.
It could be wascally wabbit!
