Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Time ....Change

Good Morning Folks....so good to be outside in the daylight again. Bus watching in the dark is a pain. Grin
Thought for the day.....

Morning Moon!

Good Morning Lynnie....Coffee and On Call....what a way to start the day....grin.

Like today's thought? Good basic info, that...grin

yes, i repeat it often at work....lol
well it looks like we got it...one kid home sick today. Wish us luck.

Morning Moon, Lynnie, Smiley,

Nice thought of the day moon.

Early bus ride, long way to school? Better get mine a movin.

Have a nice day. Hope the weather is nice and warm for someone.

Maybe it will just be regular old fashion flu Lynnie. One can hope.


Sending antibacterial thoughts your way!! Good Luck Stay Well

there's a huge outbreak here, I doubt it, plus she had her regular flu shot....

Good Morning All!

Moon, I love that line. I remember when Son was little, he used to watch "Follow That Bird" all the time (sesame street movie). When Big Bird goes off to wherever he was going (I forgot), Grover told him "don't forget to breath... in and out..."

I still think of that every now & then.

I love Hagar, they don't have it in our local paper anymore.

Everyone have a good day!

We'll keep our sanitized fingers crossed for you Lynnie.

Good Morning JJ. Recuperate from all your stair-climbing? Did ya pull out the Thanksgiving stuff while you were up there?

Yeah, do not want the kid to miss the bus....12 miles and 3 school zones...and a ton of traffic....and I am not a morning person....just a pretender....grin

Lynnie, hope the little one gets well very soon, but if your house id like mine, just about the time she is better, the other one will be sick...funny how that works.....grin

Hey Smiley! How we doing at the bank? I for one hope their fingers fall off.....nasty buggers....grin (the crooks, not the bankers....grin)

Thanks guys, I appreciate the good thoughts!
JJ that stairclimbing will have to be the workout for both of us! lol
I may as well have another cup of coffee, then I can clean for a while.

Yeah I recuperated.
No Thanksgiving decorations Moon...a couple table decorations maybe

Go straight to Christmas and most of it is in the outside shed, or in the hole under the stairway...grinning.
The stairway has a built in bookcase and I made DH make it open like a secret room so I didn't have to haul all the Xmas up to the attic. The tree I bought ouldn't fit through the attic opening very well.

Then had to buy a shed to put outside things in so didn't have to drag it all through the house frozen and snowy, and the hole was already full of inside things.

Halloween and Christmas are decorated alot. Thansgiving is just lots of food!!

Better go. Dumb me answered the phone now I have to go to work.arrrrr


Lynnie sounds like you will be doing a lot of cleaning. Following her around with the lysol can.

Good Luck

So far, so good on the banking thing Moon. No action for about a couple weeks. Unfortunately, they probably moved on to another unsuspecting bank account.

Have a good workday, JJ. That'll teach ya to answer the phone on your day off....grin
I asked about Thanksgiving, cuz I have a friend here who decorates for EVERY holiday...all the major ones, plus Veteran's Day, Memorial Day....even Columbus Day and President's Day......grin Just making sure the addiction wasn't spreading.....grin


Good deal on the bank, Smiley. Sure wish there was some info sharing, what to look for, that could be posted to help businesses avoid that kind of theft....

ok anybody still here? what did I miss? Man do not miss a day your dmail fills up fast!

Hello Trina.

Okay, finished picking photos and voting. There are a bunch of really good pics there. Good thing there is a limit on the number you can vote for....choice number 16 is......grin. Figure I may have to go back and review a few times....lol

I looked for Footless.... but he wasn't in the running...eww....bad pun, sorry...grin

that was funny Moon.
Hey guess what, turns out my toothache wasn't a toothache! it was a piece of glass!!!
but Doc took it out and gave me some antibiotics I can actually take, and a little something that works better for this type of pain.

and I got 3 boxes of trades yesterday....one is jam packed with spider lily bulbs if you would like some Moon I would be more than happy to share!

Eating glass is generally not a good idea.....grin

As for the Spider Liliy bulbs, thanks for the offer, but they grow wild here....grin

Trina is one tough lady ;)

LOL Funny Jean.
No Footless didn't make it into the contest. Our White Rock and one of our brown girls did. And so did Simba, and Buddy together, and one of Babie.
And yes venice, the leaf one did go in. I had a hard time deciding what group to put it under.

OK, off to the vet now with my big guy, then I have to call work and probably run out there and pick up something. They are finally going to have us get the H1N1 shot........Tomorrow, my sleep day before I go back to work......They would pick that day!

Moon what color are your wild spider lilies?

That seems par for the course Kassy....of course you can't get it during work hours....that would be too easy. Hope all is well with the big guy.

The spiders are white. I also have Lycoris, which is called spider lily by some. Those are Golden yellow and a couple of the red ones have volunteered.

And trust me I did not intend to eat glass, and definately not an experience I ever wish to repeat! EVER! I'd rather give birth to twins...at the same time

so what kind of dance do I have to do to get some yellow ones Moon?

Just make a note to remind me when I dig some for Babeegirl in the spring, and I will dig up a couple for you also. These are the Lycoris aurea, not the wild ones, which are crinum americanum swamp spider lily

that's ok...I like the swamp lilies, just thought I'd see if you had any....ok since you're here, how does one 'Plant' a sago palm? it kinda looks like I'm just supposed to kinda snug it down on top just a little

here is a step by step for cycads (the sago is actually not a palm)

http://www.ehow.com/way_5144767_planting-cycads.html?ref=fuel&utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=ssp&utm_campaign=yssp_art

palm not a palm...I know if your not careful it might as well be a cactus! LOL

Not a cactus, but a dinosaur with very sharp teeth. Cycads were actually around way back then. They are among the oldest plant species.

Good morning everybody! Aloha aku!

Thinking of Crinums, my Crinum augustum is about done flowering. Hopefully it will make bulblets.

Don't let me forget Jean, if the plant does not make bulblets, I'll be digging you up a couple bulbs.

ok let me rephrase.....how do I plant these?

Hey Trina, can you show a photo of your Sago?

True Sago Palms are Metroxylon species. Metroxylon sagu being the main one. It is widely cultivated in tropical areas for it's edible starch, or sago, which is found in the heart of the palm.

Some Cycads are also referred to as Sago, because of their edible starch.

those little suckers p there bite back from every where too if you're not careful!

Hi Trina, looks like you have Cycas revoluta, King Sago. It is a major source of Sago, or edible starch, in Japan.

Plant the plantlets about half way in a peat based growing medium, which is loosened up with perlite. Keep the medium moist but not soaking wet.

ok I just didn't know should I bury it or sit it on top or just put alittle ways down in the dirt...basically I didn't see typical 'roots' so I thought i'd ask you and Moon

Hey Dave is dragon fruit edible?

Dragon Fruit Cactus, Hylocereus undatus, is edible and delicious, and very nutritious!

cool for once I traded for a good thing...next question....what does star fruit taste like?

Star Fruit, Averrhoa carambola, tastes like Star Fruit.

What do Apples, Oranges, and Bananas taste like?
