Thanks for sharing your mother’s Christmas Cactus, Joanne. Here’s what she sent.

Yesterday’s showed my efforts to propagate my mother’s Christmas Cactus. Here’s is one reader’s response.
Thanks for sharing your mother’s Christmas Cactus, Joanne. Here’s what she sent.

From my sister in New York City, sent 7:53 Thursday evening.

There she was getting gas at Sheetz and look what pulled up. A load of pumpkins! .



Not a couch.
Take a look at what granddaughter Maura texted me today. Unexpected.
Not the run of the mill couch or any old chair!



Joanne took the photo and asked ….
“How many market bags do you have? Colleen has well over 30! But to be fair, she does live in Canada where you have to provide your own bags when shopping…”
Are there any insulated bags in her collection?
I have at least ten. There are so many different styles. I do have knitting in some of the market bags used as project bags so I’d better up the number to fifteen. The ones in the trunk of my car number seven.
I’ve gone into the store and left the bags in the car. oops!
First Saturdays there’s knitting at Tri B’s Coffee Shop.
My friend Lisa and I drove down on Saturday morning to be part of the knitting and crochet group.
This is what we saw on the way home. Quick Lisa, grab my phone and take some pictures. An unwitting guest blogger now!
No more photography for me at traffic lights. There’s a $650 fine for touching your phone when the motor is on- even if you’re stopped at a red light.
So thank you Lisa. You just don’t see July Fourth inflatables everyday.





And what a surprise by Alicia’s mother, Faith. Remember the 40th bday cake complete with fountains she created for her daughter’s fortieth?
P.S.
Look at these delicious birthday cupcakes (3 flavors) and how about the yarn ball napkins? Thank you Alicia and Faith for the birthday surprise.


I received a happy text and some photos from good friend Shuey in Niceville Florida. Shuey guest blogged the most viewed post of the year 2012 the stunning Barred Owl
Look what’s going on at their library.
Shuey writes,
“Crochet Yarn Bombing. First time at our local Niceville Library. Some really beautiful pieces for sure.”


And
There’s gong to be some upcoming yarn bombing in Millville PA Community supporting the Millvale Library, sponsored by Abeillevoyante Tea Compamy and McWalker Yarns click links for more info and details to participate as due date is August 24th.

From my friend and blog follower in Gainesville. Florida, Kristin F.









Thirteen Years ago my friend Shuey sent a photo of a Barred owl from Niceville Florida and was guest blogger click to see
In trying to identify what type owl this was I found this poster sold at Redbubble.
