Gardening   

Gardening is awfully good for the soul, but it can be hell on the body. The former is the stuff of February daydreams. The latter - all that pain from hauling and bending, raking and pruning - fades in winter.

Question: I have an amaryllis that I have been trying to get to rebloom for four years. Every year, once the weather warms, I put it on an open porch with a northeast exposure. It gets plenty of sun in the early- to mid-morning and then shade for the rest of the day. Come the middle of September, I cut back on the water and eventually let the soil go dry. After 10 weeks, I replace the soil and repot the bulb, and it produces leaves about 2 feet tall, but no flower. What am I doing wrong?

Remember fondue? Those hot pots of melted cheese were so ubiquitous in '70s American culture that every newlywed couple opened at least one fondue pot among their wedding bounty.
