Dining Room: Garden Pop-Up Shop

How often do you use your dining room table?  Not much?  Perhaps it can be, below, a pop-up garden room.

More commonly, dining rooms are libraries, below.

I spy something, above, never thought I would need.  Ever.  Do you see it?  Hint, armadillos.
.
We've not put in a lot of garden yet, but apparently enough.  They're here, in abundance.
.
All my pack of local gardeners seem to dispatch about 30+/year.  At a spring Garden Festival this year I met up with a friend while she was buying several choice plants.  A few days ago, she asked if I remembered the large dwarf cut leaf Japanese maple, several hundred dollars.  Yes.  Armadillo lifted it out of ground, beautiful tree is dead.

Don't know what they're shooting, above, but it must be a lot.

Garden & Be Well,   XOT

Why did I never think to do a pop-up dining room garden?  When I was the 1/week Garden Expert on NBC-TV, I brought various props for the shoots, little pop-up shops for the season/topic.  Only today with, top pic, am I realizing to do it for everyday life?  All these many years later?  Quite rich.
.
Garden & Gun, indeed.
