Yes it is iris28 and I did garden there as well what made me make the move was my love for angel trumpets which I adore.
She's About To, #26
Good morning everyone! Welcome LavDragon! Good to have you here! I'm off now to try and get the grasses planted and have to take Jerry to the doctor later for Diabetes checkup. The big baby won't ever go alone, but do you think he ever goes with me? hahaha, men!
It's a beautiful day here and I know it will be for all of you too. Donna it does my heart good to watch you strengthen each day before our eyes. Please get a picture of Siobhan and her punkin! Love you all, Karen

Hello Becky..No it's still morning here and just finished my 1st cup for the second time...
Now where's that other Trouble Maker??
The DH and DGD were having a great ole time last night...
He was teaching her how to do the Raspberry thing
and kept telling her to do it too mommy when she feeds you..LOL
Well she caught on fast and started doing them back and it was sooo funny I had tears running down my face...
Hello Hotties. It has been a long week-end. Lots of driving but I had so much fun at the round up.
I scrolled quickly through all the post. Hope everyone is doing well.
I will catch up later.

Good mid-morning ;) (tehe, Beck) Hotties! such chatter, I was wondering how Kims class went and hope she pops in soon.. I miss so much here sometimes, WELCOME Lavenderdragon! I'm a great believer of natural cures and remedies.. great to have you on our thread! I'm loving all the baby pics (2and4 legged).. have to agree with Becky or was it Peg? Hosta and columbines are a real treat in the garden, very resilient and not a lot of maintenance... I'll enjoy hosta forever in my yard.
PEGGY!!! CONGRATS on that bloom! I love the shade of yellow! So glad you were out there in the dark to see him unfurled! (jammies? were U in your jammies? hehehe)
Debra, you gettin out and about today or tomorrow?? :)
Donna, what a perfect day you have planned, holding Aidan and painting pumpkins with Siobhan.. enjoy grandma! ;)
Sounds like James is getting settled in, least outside, lol and an RU for you too! (more to plant, now) but I know you are loving it...
Karen I agree on the smoking/not smoking discussion... it's kinda like politics and religion. I do think we had a great discussion, but it's more fun to talk about plants and blooms and babies AND I kinda like our silly goofy antics too! Have a lot to do today....
It's a rainy morning here, will make a few more cuts on brugs, with ME under an umbrella (cause sugar melts, ya know, lol) and then on to the pkg/shpg dept I've set up for myself... Everyone, enjoy your day

AuntB, Heavenscent is a DG'er &Hottie lurker too :) And one of the most sweetest,honest people I know. ......I bet you have traded with her before....she's forever giving & sharing her seeds & plants, loves making trades and attending RU's. I think she is my best garden buddie, besides my sis Trish Ann...another DGer. Caren, (Heavencent) is the one that has pictures published sometimes in The Trumpeter....a biannual journal of the American Brugmansia & Datura Society. I think in the last issue of The Trumpeter her photo of Datura Metal was pictured on front cover. She also has a good collection of imported brugs from Monika in Germany. I wish all you Hotties could see her beautiful gardens! Out of this world beautiful! I missed seeing them this spring/summer as I had so much going on.....but this coming spring I'm going to be "stalking" her gardens :)
AuntB, I'm 100% sure that is a light shade of green I see on Marley's little thumb :)
I received this brug in a trade with Shellsort. She sent me 8 clippings and this is the only one that survived. I'm thinking that is because I keep it in my master bath. I don't even know what color it is. I have one other brug that I've had for about 4 years. It bloomed last summer for the first time. This year it hasn't done anything.
Guessing 6lb 15 oz Beautiful baby.
Lot's of beautiful babies on this thread.
1Anjl, we guessed a day apart when this thread first started back at #1. Am I your older lost sister or something? We sure think alike sometimes! :))

maybe my long lost hottie sis?! LOL!

Good Afternoon Hotties and Handsomes!!
Awww Bea-u-ti-ful baby!! congratulations :o)

Wow that is a goodie box for sure! Mayas flowers are turning a yellowy apricot.
Ohhhhhhh 9 lbs, 1 oz!
Anjl according to late night infomercials a tblspn of cider vinegar cures heartburn. It supposedly does stuff to equalize the acid. Never tried it myself. I like rolaids plus.
cider vinegar is the closest thing to the acid in our stomachs... (according to my mom, dr.marge) I use it mixed with water to determine vitamin descentigration (sp).... if the tablet/capsule dissolves in the mix, it will dissolve and be absorbed into the body... just "popping" in Hotties, working on packages, STILL.... Dollie, you've caused quite a stir today with that beautiful baby Marley and your plant giveaway! Fun!
I say 7 lbs. 2 oz.
I would never take away from a beautiful baby! Nothing ever beats that. But one more picture from me, please? Get out the wet noodles if you want, but it is pouring rain and they're predicting storms... Lov ya'll!!
