Is it fairly easy to grow? Any advice for the novice?<br /><br />I've been enjoying your photographs per usual, but I was blown away by the dancers. You have some amazing shots with great composition of these lovely ladies. I'm dying to go to a burlesque show. If I ever have a bachelorette party, that's what I want to do.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09060766796467257440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024445953203433265.post-89923457745568169112010-11-04T11:00:56.048-06:002010-11-04T11:00:56.048-06:00gone feral--i bet you're exhausted after those...gone feral--i bet you're exhausted after those huge projects. i was wondering what you'd take on next but a break is a good idea. i thought i was ready for a break from gardening, but yesterday i was already drooling over seed catalogues and daydreaming about next year...ridiculous.<br /><br />kim and victoria--very, very cool of you to offer about the cat. i called jason to let him know, and he had interesting news...turns out someone at his work wanted the cat, and that other person's desire for her was all it took for him to suddenly want to keep her. oh, and now he's naming her "samhain," "sammy" for short. he is a silly, silly man.<br /><br />i've never grown groundcherries before, so i don't even know what they taste like--in fact i didn't know that's what this plant was when i planted it, it grew from mystery seed. this year i won't have enough for anything more than fresh eating, but some people make jams, jellies, pies, etc.<br /><br />and yes i have roses--thank you for the suggestion, that's a great idea but i don't have enough space around the bush to plant anything else.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17114229789417525889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024445953203433265.post-46065520652550336672010-11-03T08:30:16.524-06:002010-11-03T08:30:16.524-06:00If you can't find a home for your kitty..........If you can't find a home for your kitty.......and are thinking of giving her to the pound, let me know. Gees, I love a good cat. We have one now but I usually keep a couple.<br />Love your harvest. What do you usually do with your groundcherries?<br />Growing your own cumin, what a great idea!<br />We grew garlic last year and have just replanted. Do you have any roses? Garlic is supposed to be a great bug deterrent around them.Victoria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16014235737941054206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2024445953203433265.post-17461290320616542732010-11-03T07:17:27.249-06:002010-11-03T07:17:27.249-06:00What a sweet kitty!.

We are in the process of putting the garden beds to sleep for the winter, but so many plants are still going pretty strong. <br /><br />To be honest, I want a break from both endeavors. Good thing I'm going hiking with old friends this weekend.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing another beautiful post.Goneferalinidahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10001720343818923656noreply@blogger.com
