How creative! I love your bathing beauty (bet it is a traffic stopper!). Is that cherub waiting for his/her turn for a bath?
I recently received a dieffenbachia as a gift, and it was recommended to keep it in a humid situation. We have the air conditioning on now here in...
Hank, you were right--it did make me laugh!
Donna, it isn't even September and you're doing Christmas gifts. Amazing. The bird baths are beautiful, and whoever receives one is very, very...
Scotty, as I mount my soapbox and get out my manuscript to preach from, please bear with me and be kind! There is no "all purpose bug killer"...

"Let's eat Grandma" and "Let's eat, Grandma" Proper punctuation saves lives.
Mrs. G, it's so good to see you posting again! I can see that you had a very busy summer, and the crafts look fabulous! I do hope your boss...
