Jeanne, somehow I missed your eclipse post until today. Nice picture. Yes, it was awesome. We experienced the Total Eclipse here in Texas. Many viewing parties were planned but we enjoyed it from the front yard. During the Totality, the temps dropped and dogs were barking all over the neighborhood. Our dogs were inside and did not bark.
My niece was visiting from Georgia and Dan's cousin and wife drove to Waco Texas from Myrtle Beach for the event. They came thru DFW on their way home and we had lunch on Tuesday.
Saturday was our Euless garden Club spring swap. The swap had to be moved from the park where it was scheduled to a covered patio at the Library. It rained ALL day. In spite of the weather we had a great turnout and many plants.
I took 30 plants and brought home 8. The one I'm most excited about is a Toona sinensis, (commonly called Chinese mahogany, Chinese cedar, Chinese toon, beef and onion plant, or red toon). Have any of you grown this or have you ate the leaves before? The lady that brought them said she puts the leaves in scrambled eggs or stir fry.
My awesome package from Margo/Spain came yesterday.
I've had paella, but have never made it. I love trying new recipes, so I'll have to try this one.
Thank you, I love it.
Annie, so glad you like your sunflowers.
