So apparently someone is stealing hanging baskets from our neighborhood. My next door neighbor spent around $100 on her three baskets, and they kind of looked like this:
Only bigger, and prettier, and last night someone took them. She called the police to file a report and they said another house in the hood had their hanging baskets stolen too. What a bunch of poo. Thankfully the thieves are selective - only going for the $30+ baskets instead of the measely $19.99 baskets that my house sports. But still - I feel so bad for her. And how to you stop them? She claims she's going to buy more and duct tape them to the stand. Don't think that will really stop them though. What do you do?? What would you do to deter yard theft? They already have motion sensor lights - they own a loud German Shepard, her husband is even a cop for pete's sake. I'm just flabbergasted. If anyone comes near my yard I'm going to sic Zara Z on them.

Gosh, that really stinks. Somebody's probably just doing it to be a jerk... You're still coming down this weekend right? I look forward to seeing you guys!
That is terrible! How awful...does someone have a nanny cam that you could use to film through the day & night? It would be interesting to catch the perp on tape & publically humiliate them--cheap skates for stealing flowers, how low can one go?
Love Jayda's new shoes & your yard is beauuutiiiifuuuulll! mine is full of dandelions & creeping charlie! ;O)

LOL She looks like she would lick someone to death before she would attack them! :)
I wouldn't be happy about someone stealing my flowers! What a freak! Hmmmm....maybe you could scatter a few of Zara Z's unsightly "gifts" around under your baskets and hopefully the smell would deter any would-be flowernappers...or at least hopefully they would slide in it and maybe give Zara Z more time to lick them to death! :) But then you would have to be willing to put up with the smell and the unsightly mess....(eew)
