hhmm there is something there from my point of view. If you were saying that to me and you said "I bought them for the party" Here in the deep South we would always ask if you were donating them. I have given or organized many big Family parties and I learned quickly that some family and in-laws will buy something for the get-together and then hand me the receipt! I have had to bite my tongue and pay them back and sometimes they paid too much OR their items didn't go with the theme. sssoooo maybe huh? lol

"we", meaning the kids, are in charge of the party. We don't "pay" for other peoples stuff unless it was arranged in advance to "go in" on something big. These are just plain, tan bowls.

I need cozy. Sheesh. 40 degrees outside and pouring down rain. Has been raining hard all day and its supposed to rain for the next 5 days. The ground is already soaked through from the last rain. Rivers are up. There is snow up north and out west making the situation worse. I'm just glad I am not right on the river. Last year we couldn't get rain for nothing and this year it wont go away.

I wish we could keep some of that rain here, but it just rushes on towards you Kirs! 30's this morning, but warmed up. It will be near 90's next week. Every time I want to plant something it gets cold...surely this is the end of it!

You can have at least half. I think we are several inches over the norm for the year.

It's been nice a few days here but today, while mostly sunny, it is only 53 degrees! I knew I should have brought that plant inside last night!

The sun is finally out.

Sunny & 80's here today. Finally got the vegs/herbs planted, but my back wasn't happy. Hoping for more rain, we were on the fringe of the last round.

It is sooooo beautiful here in Georgia ... everything is sssooo GREEN!!! Hubby finally has planted every vegetable known to man in his garden ... he was parading around it showing off Sunday with his chest all puffed up and I said to my son "I swear son the way he's struttin around, I expect him to kick grass up behind him! lol

Sounds like you will have some nice veggies, Bella. Hung out 2 hummingbird feeders today, last year the ants were constantly in them, not sure how to keep them out. Supposed to be 90's maybe starting tomorrow...getting mighty warm!

Ruby I too have hummingbird feeders and I found that if I coat the string that hangs them or whatever attaches them for the ant trail with Vasoline the ants cannot walk through the grease.

My kid need to make some lemon squares so I can take them to work tomorrow. Bet he is up cooking them at 3am
