So glad you like the seeds Trina....let me know what you end up sowing this season.


So did you get some nice pottery? Great they have Basjoos, I was going to offer you one of mine but didn't want to promise anything until I see if they survived the winter!


So did you get one? Hope you're settling into your new home nicely.

Hiya Re: Made it!!

Well, she appeared, then she re-appeared...


and now she's DISAPPEARED!


Trina, if you ever return to us, send me a pm and I'll let you know how to get rid of those weird codes beside your user title..."Resistence is futile".


Hope you're settling in ok, and you're enjoying your new home.

Oh I can't wait to see the new pot! I bet it's gorgeous. I figured you were real busy, but I just like to josh around.
