Normal Gossip
It Was Never About the Figs with Caroline O'Donoghue

Jane is also full of spite because Jane is like, you know what? I offered to water it. And Muffy explicitly told me, no, Celeste has got it. And so she watches out her window as the cilantro withers and the mint burns and the thyme becomes crunchy and the rosemary gets all fried and everything burns. Christ. It's awful. You're not intervening at any point in this.

And Jane has really had it up to here with the fig. So yeah, when I first heard this story, I was like, of course you go water the herb garden. But the more I think about it, the more I'm like, no, I'm so petty.

They're going to yell like they'll never be friends again. And then Muffy will be my friend. Delicious.
