I'm sitting here in a darkened office at night here at Green Head HQ near Chicago and it's -5°F with a -20° wind chill! Global warming, wha? So anyways I'm trying to think positive and find things that make me think of spring and a warmer climate. Now the Hanging Strawberry Basket Kit is no where near as cool, weird and innovative as the Upside-Down Tomato Garden from previous years, but it does make growing a giant batch of juicy, sweet, healthy and delicious strawberries a total snap. Plus, by growing them in an elevated hanging basket, you also get to keep out most of those furry fruit-loving animal thieves as well. I love strawberries, but unfortunately I'm still freezing...

I like sundials, never had one, always wanted one,however traditional sundials tell solar time rather than actual clock time. It's interesting to know when the sun is at its highest point in the day and all, but I just need to know the time the rest of the world goes by. I found a solution. The Sunclock Sundial is an upgraded version of ancient technology. This bronze finish sundial casts actual numerical shadows across a dial band throughout the day and at the center meridian line is the actual clock time. It's the coolest sundial out there and it even adjusts for daylight-savings time.
