Ah, Sjoerd, you are so kind (not to mention one heck of a gardener!). You are absolutely right--this forum is about garden talk, helping one...
Carolyn, I restrained myself and the tomatoes are still in their little grow cells in the barn. Darn, this waiting is hard! Since the high winds...
Netty, I'm so sorry you lost your maple--trees are so special. The ice pictures reminded me once again why we are in Texas and not in upstate New...
There's an expression, "He saved my bacon" meaning that someone got you out of a tight situation or a big problem. Well, Sjoerd saved my bacon...
Toni, I'm so glad you posted, and that the severe storms in North Texas didn't do much, or any, damage for you. I was going to post and ask, but...
Went into town for my usual Thursday shopping/visiting and nearly got blown off the road with these winds. Had a good gossip at the hair salon...

Nicole, don't worry about the mushrooms. They generally appear when there is wood rotting below the soil surface, like old roots, old mulch, that...
I knew you were weird, but this is ridiculous!
I don't chicken out at the last minute!! Ronni, chickens can fly--they don't have to climb trees, clamber over limbs and logs, and generally...
I'm going to stop reading this thread early in the morning. Hearing what Sjoerd, Netty, Carolyn, etc. have done tires me out and I'm useless for...
