good one moon I was gonna suggest Bloom where you are planted

(Zone 5b)

we, as a group, tend to seed more than anything ;) soma might call us invasives.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

I am doing a very subdued and slow-mo Happy Dance this morning

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

LOL Lynnie true some might, I just call us proific bloomers

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Thanks Lynnie. That is the morning glory bush....blooms like it has good sense...grin starts in early spring and will go right up to first frost...and it is perennial....grin

Trina, good title, you may want to use it to continue your thread. Once the numbers start getting up there it makes it difficult for dial up folk to load, and Dave is on dial-up for sure and Kassy when she is at the BF's.

Sugar beets, Kassy? Yummy

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

la chupacabra, la chupacabra, she's trying to steal my chimichanga
la chupacabra, la chupacabra, but it's mine and she can't have none

A landscaper friend we haven't seen came over the other day. He walked in the back yard and laughed and yelled (he's a loud guy anyways) "oh boy! do YOU have creeping charlie!"

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

that was supposed to be prolific bloomers!

and they did too, weeded us right outta where we wanted to be

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Did you thank him kindly for stating the obvious? Grin

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

I have so many weeds in the back, I can't remember what real grass looks like, does any one have a picture of real grass?

(Zone 5b)

ok I'm going to run a few errands....see you guys later! :)

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

Gotta get the laundry in...starting to drizzle...later 8-)

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

help me help me...I'm being attacked by the chupacabra!

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

Don't let him/her get you!!!

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

Can you make him join the army when he is of age?

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

Is he your son or your hubby's?

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

according to his birth certificate he is my husbands, Iowa would not let him have a paternity test to find out if this was in fact his child...just started garnishing wages when the kid was 5, he never even knew he existed until then....and these days military won't take you if you have a record, like the type he's working on getting

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

Oh, very complicated!

I need to take a shower and run some errands. But I will be back later.

Be careful so the chupacabra won't eat you!!!

Be sure to rest, take your meds, and do the ice thing.

Later!!

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

Woodhull, IL(Zone 5a)

Everyone out to lunch?
Guess I'll go do something constuctive then.
Venice I'm working on your liliys may even throw in a couple surprises!

Marinette, WI(Zone 4b)

OK you have to see this one
One of these beets was grown from a seed that said it expired in 2002. We had extra room in the garden so we though we would try them.
The other was from a seed from this year.
Any ideas as to what one the expired seed one is?

Canning beets here today JJ ^_^

hey everybody

Woodhull, IL(Zone 5a)

Hi kassy.
The things a person has to do to stay in the loop. lol
Those look like nice beets. Except I don't like beets.
Don't know when you find the time to do all you do. You guys make me feel lazy or old not sure which.

Maybe Jim will loan me some carmel.lol
GS home so better go do the homework thing.
Later, nice to see ya

Kenmore, NY(Zone 6a)

I'm so glad your back JJs!

Kassy, I love beets. One of the few things I would eat when I was small. Beet juice is great for easter eggs too.

Marinette, WI(Zone 4b)

smiley, I'm canning beet and we have easter egg chickens.........LOL

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

The big one is the expired seed....duh....grin

JJs so glad to see you you made it....grin

Julie, Venice....hello....new house is filling up.....cool.

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

Kassy, can you tell any difference in their taste?

I feel like giving away these avocado trees! They are in 10" pots but I bought 14.5" pots because they didn't have the 12" there and they were a lot cheaper. The pots are heavy and I will have to repot them in the house because there is no way that I could lift them once they are in the larger pot. It took a while to find something to put under them. Finally found a couple of real cheap plastic trays. I hope then don't crack with the weight on them. So that is what I have done all afternoon!!! And I still haven't picked up stuff to plant them. I usually boil rocks to put in the bottom but I think I will just break a small pot because I have plenty of them. They are clean and I even baked them. I am tired out just from this! It was a long drive south of town. Do you want a tree???

And no, Trina, I didn't have fun! Did you have fun today? Hope you are feeling better. I looked at one link that moon gave you and it looked good. Have you called anyone yet? The services look promising.

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

I really like fresh beets with a little salt and a little butter. No comparison to ones in a can.

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

yech! beets are nasty...yucky yucky beets

I heard free trees and nothing else

Marinette, WI(Zone 4b)

actually the fatest one was the one that said it expired 5 years ago. The longer one is a from a seed from this year

This is the expired one, but someone forgot to tell it. I think I have to write to Marth Stewart, because the seeds had her name on them.............LOL

In Australia, they eat beetroot on sandwiches the way we do tomatoes. My son in law was amazed to find them pickled here. He ate them like....pickles...grin

Venice, those darn trees had better grow their butts off after all the stress they have caused you...grin

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

LOL Kassy!

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

i'm gonna steal my daughters toast

Marinette, WI(Zone 4b)

OOPS they expired 7 years ago!!!
Who was suppose to tell them not to grow???

Prairieville, LA(Zone 9a)

It just goes to show, where there is a will....beets grow....grin

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

the marigold seeds in my garden are over 10 years old...been frozen a few times too...think about it who told the seeds they were supposed to die
