Now, don't laugh, but I miss having Blue Jays! For some reason they don't come out into the country and prefer to stay in town. We have...
Marvelous! You've granted a "travel wish" for me--thank you for taking us all to Corfu!
Donna, with a hound like that on the loose, start training immediately or there won't be anyone safe in the neighborhood! My gosh, two pounds of...
Like Carolyn, I have space so I no longer plant beans and corn together. However, when we lived in town with a smaller garden, I tried it one...
That is such an expressive face on Maya! I'm sure she is a great companion, and a constant source of amusement.
Nightowl, I too was somewhat surprised that the home accepted the shawl. It is a small home, and has both rehab and long-term care so their...
Thank you all! I have the shawl soaking in tepid water with a very mild soap, and after rinsing it I'll lay it on a towel on top of an old window...
We have no choice--no matter what the weather is like, the chickens and bees need tending. In cold weather I bundle up and tuck the hens in for...
I was given a beautiful mohair shawl for Christmas. I wore it once and found that mohair gave me a most wonderous rash! So, I'd like to take it to...
DMJ, I don't have any stevia seeds to send you, but Pinetree Seeds http://www.superseeds.com has them for sale at $2.50 for 15 seeds. If you have...
Jerry, they are trying to find out what causes Donna's allergies. They think it is plant-related, since her symptoms have abated some since our...
We were lucky enough to get a behind the scenes tour at the Waco zoo today. We got to pet a rhino bottom, and hear an elephant play the harmonica....
Someone was paying attention and chose a perfect gift for you! That is one handsome dehydrator. Let us know what you dehydrate, and how the...
If you are unhappy with the rose where it is, it NEEDS to be moved. First I would trim it back by 1/2 to 2/3, then dig a huge root ball (at...
It seems you have a rosarian green thumb! Why not get both of the rooted rose cuttings into their own pots now, perhaps a 4" pot? The fewer times...
We got rain, and high winds. I really didn't want any snow. Actually, I never want any snow!
Janet, welcome to the Stew! We have great crafty types, and gardeners here. Pretty soon you'll be saying, "Been there, grown that."
Toni, I'm so happy for you since I know how much you love snow. As I've said before, better you than me! I'll settle for the 1.3" of rain we got...
First gift: it rained today! Waking to thunder and lightning, and getting 1.3" of rain was about the best gift a Texas gardener could get! Second...
Donna, may your Christmas and New Year be filled with the joy and beauty you bring to others.
