Charleen, I'm almost afraid to tell you what kind of tree I'm planting, but I will...it's a chocolate mimosa.I know mimosas are invasive down where you live, but they are not bad here.Home Depot have them this year, and I was watching them earlier in the year, to go sale, but I had forgotten about it...since I became obsessed with angel trumpets.But my daughter caught them on clearance and got me one..Yippee..
Don't work too hard with those rocks! I love rocks around flower beds..wish I had some here.Is your goth bed going to be in the shade, or sun?
Dee
Double daydreams Blooming in the basement
Partial. I'm putting it under my dogwood tree by the pond.
I have a lot of moving to do on part of it. But I'll get it done.
Charleen
Good afternoon Ladies
I had to mail off some things, had to go lowes, just to see what was on sale, it's almost bare & they're holding out on the catcus it's still 50%, I was hoping it would be 75% off, well tommorrow is the big day, BC day, they had it today but I had things, I had to get done, wait a couple days, I have another Georgeous Brug about to Bloom, there will be Pic's
I hope everyone's day has went well
Elizabeth
It's been o.k. Making bracelets. Do you wear your bracelets?
I hope you enjoy them.
Frying chicken for supper, had to cut it up, been a while since I have done that.
But it is in the skillet.
Charleen
Charlene
I will wear my bracelet tommorrow, for luck, fried chicken sounds great, I love baked chicken, with veggy's & coleslaw
I like it fried, but I don't like the skin, I am having pizza, only on fridays though
Elizabeth
that sounds good too. Got corn too.
I'll probably have Pizza tomarrow, got one in freezer, just POP it in oven.
Yum!
Charleen
Charlene
that's the smart way to do pizza, when my girls were small I use to make pizza, home made, haven't done that in forever
also made my own crust, it was funny too when I made it, I had all my DD's friends come over, their parents never made home made anything, so it was a treat to eat a home cooked meal
Elizabeth
It always tasted better too. I bet. that is why the kids liked it.
It was a treat.
Charleen
Hi Ladies, guess what we are having for supper....Pizza.We love it and have it about once a week.
Dee
Charlene
I got to have a BBQ sandwitch, DH cooked again. I am going to keep him, I love to have a day or two off from cooking
that's what he did he cooked about 3 days this week, I have to watch out when he gets nice, he's usually up too something, is your chicken done yet?
Elizabeth
Dee
hey girl you're back good to see you
Elizabeth
Oh yes, and I did bad too. I fried it in bacon grease. I love chicken fried in Bacon Grease.
It was good too. Then I had frozen sweet corn that I put red and green peppers in. Four pats
of Butter. Micro ed it and it was so good.
Charleen
MMMMM..you guys are making me hungry.Charleen,I love potatoes fried in bacon grease, but I haven't had 'em like that in years..mmm...mmmm.And I love fried chicken, but very seldom fix it. Now a days, it's boneless skinless chicken breasts..
Dee
Charlene
sounds like I was at the wrong house, that does sound good
Elizabeth
Can you believe that Jorie, got her box today, and it was just mailed on Monday? That was quick!
Dee
Dee
that doesn't sound bad, I have all my chicken skinless, even fried, but I love fried chicken livers
Elizabeth
Well, girls I got those rocks around the third flowerbed, now got to work on the Goth Garden.
Got to get them planted too, but I'm sure I am going to have plenty, with the help of my friends.
Charleen
Dee
I hope she gets mine soon, I mailed it out on Tuesday, soo maybe tommorrow
Elizabeth
That is super great!!! had less
stress on the plants, that way.
Charleen
Charlene
it will be sooo nice when it's done, I live about 5 min. from a river, I got about 50 five gal, buckets of river rock to go around my plants
Elizabeth
yes, it would be nice if she gets your tomorrow.
Charleen, I can't wait to see your goth bed!
Dee
You have a wheel barrow I hope. I carried big roscks. My DH fusses at me, but
when he s not hre I do it myself and there is no fussing. ^_^
I did a little trench put them in it and tap dirt back down around them. I
love rocks.
Charleen
Thats a lot of rock carrying Elizabeth.Wish we had a river, close by.I love rock...a lot more than the retaining wall block, that I have bordering most of my beds.
Dee
Dee, she's got mine; now it is Elizabeth's
plants she is waiting for. She will let you know.
That why I like sending them, she lets us know.
Charleen
Charlene
I put the Apricot moonflower that she wanted, as well as what ever I could fit in there, then I put all that shreeded paper in there, so I am hoping it gets to her in good shape
Elizabeth
I am thinking about making a border out of jewel tone plates, if I can find them....bright colors..I've seen pics where people have ued them, and it was pretty...I just wonder how they hold up tho.
Dee
Is the Moonvine, really Apricot color?
I know she will love it. A girl sent me a pkg. with shredded paper.
What a mess. But the plant was in Great shape.
So she did good.
Charleen
What are they made of? Dee.
That is what makes a difference.
Charleen
I am gonna try to find stoneware plates, at Goodwill.I know they will get broken,but I figure I can replace them cheap enough.I got all winter to stock up..lol
Dee
That shoud be good, you won't have any problem with them.
Dee, my Baby is still growing. It is almost 3" now. Isn't that great.
Elizabeth, I don't see any roots yet.
What Brugs should I look for tomarrow?? That we don't already have.
I'll write it down.
Charleen
