Lawn observation

I totally get why creeping charlie has a bad rep (and, as of making this post, am zero percent surprised to learn that it's in the mint family), but it is such a pretty plant. Those tiny trumpet-like flowers! The purple edges on the scalloped leaves! The way it perks up in spring alongside dandelions and violets! I have absolutely no objections to it taking over an entire lawn.

AMEN!

I totally agree. It's not so wonderful underfoot, though, so if one wants to frolic in the yard with one's companions.
