My plan is to make shawls as Christmas gifts for some or all of my girl list-dwellers. That's somewhere between one and fourteen shawls :) I had some custom yarn made for the first one, and have had a devil of a time finding a pattern that made sense for the colorway. Its cream, buttercream, charcoa...

Less than a year. I just cut the top off, pulled off the bottom inch or so of leaves and put it in bromeliad potting soil. I kept it moist until I saw growth, then slacked off a bit :lol: I really need to repot them. One pot has no drainage (which I discovered after putting them outside and after th...

Didnt take a whole lot. Just a few of plants I wanted advice about. Just didnt think of it! I was busy showing my sister around, and reminiscing with Brian and Chris

I do have a picture of my sister and her matching tag lol

Thanks!

Those are pretty, I like them

Well its warmed up well enough to move them to the 3 season room. They seem happy enough. Soon, the great outdoors!

That's beautiful, Karma! Is that cross stitch? I used to do that but dont see well enough to do that anymore. Maybe someday I'll get that eye correction surgery!

My sister and I are going to visit Hallsons this coming Thursday. I cant wait!

Which fb group would you reccomend? A friendly sociable one...just like here in the good old days?

Not possible!

Hi Lucy! I remember Karma too

We are hoping to do something like this in the next next couple years. How fun! Thank you for sharing, I'll be spending a few days catching up on your journey

Happy belated!
I remember you from way back

Just for fun, I started a couple of pineapples from crowns last year. They are growing but I think they need more light than they get in my sunniest room. But it's still pretty cold out! How much Michigan weather can they take? Any tricks to get them to produce?

It's been a long time, so I'll update. I crochet pretty much every day now. It's my go to stress reliever. I just started playing with creating bird baths and garden art out of old dishes. I debarked and smoothed a stick the last time we went camping. I'm calling that whittling lol I've got as few c...

Hi,

I joined a long time ago, life happened, yadda yadda. Now that I'm where I can dig into the soil again, i decided to see if you all where still around. So glad you are!

Hi Francine!

I've tried all the tricks I know, and come up with only that source in Hawaii, also. They are way awesome! If you do get them, be sure to show us the end product

Janet, that's EXACTLY how I was going to describe one! LOL

Tami, OUCH! Heal quickly!

Wow! I mean, WOW! I LOVE the dress! And you look so regal in it!

Just excellent

OED! Well, that's just what I was thinking! :lol: And I have to admitt, I don't "get" how it knows the difference between grass and anything else, either, but I'm letting that go.... for now :o My Mom happened to come by yesterday, and I asked her (she has used this stuff before) but she wasn't too ...
