You don’t have a green thumb. You tried a little gardening and failed miserably. You even killed a Chia Pet or two. Maybe you need to try a virtual Chia Pet before you take on the real thing. Enter Chi Pet. Chi Pet is a Chia Pet-like widget for Dashboard. Unlike the real thing, you don’t need to remember to water it; just remember to click the water droplet from time to time to keep your Chi Pet nice and green.

Come on, you can do it! If you’re successful, who knows? Maybe one day you can grow a Chia Pet for real!

Sure, this little guy looks naked now, but in time it will grow a lovely green
coat of sprouts--provided I don’t kill it first.
