And that, folks, is why I'm in Texas! The only ice we see is in our tea. :)
Eileen, great idea! Any photos of birds, wildlife, insects, flora taken by Kildale would make a great calendar. I am constantly amazed at the...
Oh Netty, that makes me all over nostalgic for autumn in upstate NY. We don't get much in the way of fall color here--just subtle changes. Do me...
KKNG, this is for you. [img] Prostrate rosemary in bloom ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden ) This is the first time our...
Eileen, we have over 100,000 bees, but they live in our hives. I don't know how many are out there in the "wild," but our ladies don't stray far...
Wise choice of photos on the magazine's part! That is a lovely, seasonal picture.
Cheryl, Tuscan Blue is my very favorite rosemary--so fragrant, so reliable. The prostrate rosemary has never bloomed this well before. I don't...
Our prostrate rosemary by the patio is in full bloom, and the bees dearly love it. [img] More, more--gimme more! ( photo / image / picture from...

Eileen, I could swallow a whole crab whole, as long as it was swimming in melted butter! Kildale, that gull's mouth is amazing. Reminds me of...
Jerry, as far as I can tell, rabbits don't have opposable thumbs and therefore have difficulty with tools (thank heavens!). However, several of...
Carolyn, your soup would cure anything--the blues, a cold, and the wobbles! It looks delicious. I freeze my soup, since my hens are walking around...
Toni, so happy to see you posting! That nurse is absolutely right--you and Roy are a wonderful couple. Please take care, don't overdo, and we'll...
Ain't Texas interesting? Identifying our plants can be either fascinating or frustrating! I agree that the first photo looks like wigelia. If you...
Sjoerd, the hives are just outside the fence, about six feet away. Having them inside the fence would have made harvesting honey more difficult....
Oh dear, Cheryl. I hadn't thought of that . . . . :'(
All those cute bunnies did a job on our beans and peas this spring. Now we have a (hopefully) bunny-proof fence around our seasonal garden....
Philip, you've really got to get Molly to cheer up! I don't know which are better--the nature photos, or the pictures of Molly having the time of...
