Tuesday: Plant Parenthood
Nell's kittens were chasing dust motes around the shop very intently - when they weren't interrupting a chase to pounce on each other's tails or grab Nell's legs. Nell was used to this by now, though she always took a moment to tell them what good hunters they were. Maybe they'd be able to catch any mice that appeared, though she'd been quite clear about telling them the squirrels were off limits.
The plants were doing well and she'd recently stocked up the teas and lotions, so today was fairly light on things she needed to accomplish. There was a pile on the back counter of website orders she needed to send out, but she could do that later in the afternoon.
In the meantime, Plant Parenthood was open and Nell was happy to entertain any visitors.

He walked in and paused at the door for a moment. "Hello?" he said as he stepped in the rest of the way. "Nell right?" he said giving her a small grin. "How are you today?"

She smiled at him a little ruefully. "I'm awful sorry. I recognize your face, but I can't put a name to it. It's been nine years for me and I'm afraid a lot of names have slipped away."

"I had been meaning to stop by. Wanted to see about a couple of gifts I need to figure out before the holidays.... one, in particular, that's giving me some trouble," he added with a hopeful glance around the shop.

She tilted her head, "What were you looking for? I'm happy to help however I can. And I can always blend something special for teas, lotions, and tinctures or combine plants any way you'd like."

She considered for a moment. "I could make up a little basket for her with some teas and some handmade lotion, maybe a little flowering plant for her room, maybe some homemade jam?"

"I'm pretty sure yellow is one of her favorite colors," he offered.

"Any of these appeal to you?" she asked.

She smiled at him and took a sip if the hot chocolate. "Thank you for this. I'm doing well. Better with seeing you."

She took another sip and sat down in one of the chairs, nodding toward another if he chose to sit. "Very interesting. Actually out talking to people, accidentally or not."

"You have definitely been busy," she agreed. "How is the Detective? It sounded as if he was having a tough time of it before."

Marc wasn't going to get into further detail since it wasn't his business to share. But he figured Nell would understand that.

Her kittens had decided to check out this interesting visitor, Cygnus sniffing around his shoes while Rigel perched on a nearby chair and looked from Nell to Marc and back again.
"The store's doing well," she said. "And online sales are good. Which is a relief. I'm not gonna have to pack up and leave at least."
