Aloha. Three days of tropical storms has made everything grow like crazy. This is my latest baby, Desiree. I have waited almost a year for this one and battled spider mite almost continually - It's been worth it though!
It's a jungle out there!
A picture of her sweet face...
Everything has gone wild.
Hawaiian Double white...
Another pretty little thing....
Another...'scuse the fish food...
More - are you bored yet?
Some of my babies coming along nicely..
Oh, I hate to see anyone have to live in such a horrid place! Perhaps you should cut all those awful flowers down and put in some nice concrete walls or something...
The scent from those brugs must be wonderful! But what is that white flower with the red bracks? It looks beautiful.
Oh, Jenny. What beauty. I can imagine the aroma is wonderful as well. I have a little bitty bleeding heart in my master bathroom trying to keep it alive for the winter. Have never seen one with so many blooms. Can hardly wait.

Well DUH! If I had stopped staring at the flower long enough I would have seen it is marked right there on the picture!
My Goodness,how much fertilizer nutrients,came with that rain,just breathtaking.
Oh Jenny, those are Lovely!!!! Just beautiful! Truly a paradise!!!!!!!!!
It really is astounding the difference rain makes, that and our nights are now much cooler (in the 70's). Hoping to make lots of growth on the brugs this winter so I will have plenty of cuttings to send out.
Kilikina, the bleeding heart can really get out of hand here according to my gardening bible. Sends out suckers easily, I will have to place it very carefully in the garden - it's too pretty to become a noxious weed - I've got enough of those already.
If you listen carefully you can hear the weeds growing...dashed outside during a break in the rain today and found the whole garden covered in tomato plants.
Later, got to get that chicken out of the oven....
People on the mainland,have chicken coops,but I see letting them stay in the oven,makes it a lot easier than having to chase them down!!!!LOL!
Stay out of the rain,sweet people tend to melt!!!!
Let me know if those weeds start making to much noise,I have an extra pair of ear plugs in my tool box! LOL Should have been a comedian!!!
TM, hahahahaha, very funny! Yes, you should have been a comedian!!!!! LOL!
I'm sure she met to eat for dinner! LOL!!!!!! hahaha

That brought memories as wee lad,helping grandpa pick out and chase the chicken down,and see him taking the axe to his neck,but the worse was plucking out those feathers before Grandma put her in that pot of boiling water!!!
Yeah, Chrissy was speaking about being a vegetarian for that very reason.....of seeing animals slaughtered and in a butcher's van as a child. It is very traumatic for a child to see things like that.
I wouldn't do very well on a farm. While we did live out in the country for a short period of time we were made to stay inside while Grandma was killing the chicken.
I have seen a deer skinned and cleaned, and that about made me sick. I personally prefer to go to the grocery store!!!!!!!!!
Doesn't everyone keep their chickens in the oven and their pigs in the frige? Live and learn!
Naw!!!
Were pretty modern here in Kansas,we either salt them down,or hangin in the smoke
house ,it all depends on how fast we want to eat!!!!LOL
Unless it's been a hard snowy and cold winter,then we just lead them into the ice house,and wait a day or two!!!LOL
LOL! We seem to be much more behind the times!
You have acually managed to bring tears to my eyes from laughter!
Well you living on one of those little Islands and all,I bet it some time before the boat
people arrive with all the latest news and gadgets!!!LOL
Here's my hankey,I never leave a lady crying,altho have left a few laughing in my younger days!!!! LOL!
Jen, when Christi comes in Feb, we'll get a care package together for her to bring to help you get caught up on things, so you won't be so far behind the times!!! LOL
It's the swimming out to meet the boats that is so hard!
New sear book for the outhouse! LOL!
Real tuberware glasses,no more drinking out of the coconut shells!!!
Fruit of the loom underwear,no more of those green fig leaves,man o man ,going to be like
uptown for now on!!!LOL
What your tribe doesn't have the new dug out canoe!!!
Rubber raft it is!!!!
HaHaHaHa!!!!!!! LOL! ROFLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! How funny!!!!! Very good TM!
Hmmm, I always kept my three little piggies in the house for fear the social service folk would take them lil darlin's away from me if I locked them out...
Outhouse??? What's that???
Wahini don't use fig leaves - we use the coconut shells for modesty sake when the boat comes in!
Oh boy! Christi's going to be in for a shock!
Aha! The plot thickens! You take care of those piggies, Zany, them's valuble! See, keeping them in the refrigerator isn't so silly...
Zamy.last week the courts tried to take a baby wallabye from a guy here in town,but he got a petition signed by over 16,000 people and they let it stayed but wouldn't allow anymore!!!
But keeping the pigs in the house is a good idea,because a wolf might see them and huff and puff blow ye house down!!!!LOL
You got a two hole or a 1 hole outhouse? And you must be uptown folk if ya git a sears book fer it. We'us in the mountains has to make doo with leaves or corn cobs.
