Last night I called a petsitting agency, to book someone to take care of the cats while John and I are traveling for Christmas. Here's an excerpt from that conversation...
Petsitter: "We can arrange to bring in your mail and water your plants, in addition to feeding the cats and taking care of the litterbox."
Me: "Oh! I hadn't even thought about that. If you could water the plants too, that would be great."
Petsitter: "Just so you know, we can't water any plants of the illegal variety."
Me: (...Pause.) "All my plants are of the garden edible legal variety, thanks. But...Really? Is that an issue? Does that come up a lot?"
Petsitter: (Darkly.) "Oh, you'd be surprised."
I had to laugh.
