A House for Frog and Toad

Picture this: the kids are playing nicely, too nicely almost, when your suspicions that this is 'too good to be true' are confirmed and -- crash! -- your lovely potted parsley lands on the floor from its perch on the kitchen counter.

I hate to throw out pottery.  Chips of a broken pot can be used in the bottom of another pot for drainage. I usually smash up broken pots and store them in the shed.  But the gap left in this pot looked so much like a doorway, that we turned the pot into a toad home.  I don't know if any toads or frogs will find their way to it, but since it kept my boys quiet for a few minutes while they painted it, I don't really care.  : )
