Liz,
Those fortune cookie favors are so cute! How big a circle do you cut from the fabric? How big are they-finished? Is it a single layer of fabric, or do you line them? Do I see some beads around the edge? What are they used for? Tree ornaments? Thanks....

helln,
I just noticed you live in Rosamond! Is the Rosamond Brugmansia named after your town?
Do you have any--Are you a gardener?

I am off to NJ this afternoon. Probably won't be back until Thursday. It is so foggy here today. Real soup! The drive is 3 hours if there are no delays. More if there is any congestion or bad weather. Once you are on the NJ Turnpike--you are trapped! Nowhere to escape. I suppose the locals might know of side roads, but I do not.

I sure will have a lot to catch up on when I get home!
You all be good and enjoy all the Christmas gluttony!!!!....:O)

Here's a brand new Poinsettia that we saw at the Conservatory last weekend. If you want to see all the pictures, go to the Mid Atlantic Forum and check out the Post from the Rawlings Conservatory Holiday Displays. There re a lot of pictures there.......

This Conservatory is one of only THREE remaining, active ones in the USA!!!
