Tropicman, who says gardening isn't exercise. Here's a calorie count for what you burn when you garden. Send them here if they continue to talk trash! http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/activities/8.html

Speaking of exercise. . . . . .Food??? Did someone say food? If you like Vietnamese food, I have some to share! Nice to meet you Marcy, Islandshari, and svplantingfool. I shouldn't be hijacking Tropicman's thread with all the wonderful welcomes. LouC, Peyton is my 19 month old son. Seems like there are lots of girl Paytons lately. Didn't think of that when dh suggested Peyton. . . . as in Peyton Manning!

Okay back to the subject. Here is my strange bougie that put out so much foliage without one colorful bract throughout the summer, but is putting out color now when it's cold. A lot of the foliage has fallen off and looks shriveled up. It's stressed out, isn't it? And that's why it's "blooming" now huh? Should I be worried?
