I went shopping today....

12 years ago

Everything is not blooming today, but I am pleased with what I did get.....

Bela Lugosi

Little Wine Cup

And a few (some got a little crushed in the car) that do have a bloom...

ANTIQUE ROSE - what beautiful until I closed the door on it LOL!

(unreg) Double Orange Tet - from the same hobby hybridizers farm (tag seedling 247-16-3). This is a screamer that will make your eyes bleed if you look at it straight on, not sure I will keep it.

JOLYENE NICHOLE - what's not to love here?

NOID - from same hobby hybridizer - no tag, could be reg or not

NOID - I'm calling it WHATS IN A NAME - because I think it rocks whether it has a name or not LOL! Also, IRL, this is VERY dark, almost black, but it is bright sun right now and I cant get a good photo.

What a great find. Maybe you follow that guy around and collect anything he doesn't want. We got two small satellite dishes an installer didn't want to bother with..........Total Score! Hubby is an electrian and brings home partical spools of wire. He took some to the recycle center and got 50.00 for them. Would have gotten more if he had stripped off the plactic coating. Needless to say I have confiscated the spools of wire.......LOL, also he brought home pieces of metal conduit ( I see windchimes). Gotta love it! if anybody knows an electrician or see a new building being built ask them if you can have their scraps. A lot of contractors just don't want to bother with throwing the stuff away.

Sorry about the broken links, thought I had them right!! Thanks Les on the angling of the cabinet, I'll give that a try. Woven woods -- colors?? there are a ga-zillion, do I blend with the sill, do I accent off the rug? Dark brown, light-er brown??? Right now, (until we paint) I seem to have a lot of dark browns and beige. I don't mind the beiges as our last house was all the deep burgundy/reds. Right now the lighter wall colors are okay, but I seem to be traveling down the brown or beige road! Thanks all,

I hate to say this, but I went out to get some dish organizers from a local home store - been waiting for cutlery to go on sale so we can replace our set that you can bend with your fingers....... Normally $99 - this weekend $49. 18/10 gauge stainless steel 8 x 5 piece sets plus the hostess set. They were waaaaayyyyy up top but the red sticker caught my eye and the overall pattern is a classic so I know both hubby and I can live with it. I'm done now until we go furniture shopping in the spring to replace our Sanford and Son couch and chairs... I can't believe the sales this week. I'm shaking my head in disbelief. It's really been worth waiting for these items. Wow. Happy b'day to me, happy b'day to me!!!!!

Shopping for GSs Easter baskets

No "Easter" aisle at Target. But check out the Dollar Bins near the store entrance. They have Easter coloring books and baskets, critters, bubbles, chalk, crayons, etc for $1 each. (Some are over priced at that in all honesty.) Then go to the toy department, and there I found whil-a-gigs, cars, balls, dinosaurs, etc for a dollar or two among all the more expensive toys.

Looks like you have lots of pretty new blooms for your garden. Congrats! Who cares if they were registered or not as long as you love them.

Thanks everyone! As I unpotted the last one - the very dark one - I found the tag in the bottom. It is Royal Occasion. Maybe I should go check the other pots too!

And thanks for all the nice comments :-)

JOLYENE NICHOLE is one of those great pinks I love to see.
All great pics but JN is one I could definitely find room for.

What a great day of shopping you had, Alexa! I wish I could shop locally and find daylilies like that. I like that Double Orange Tet and, of course, Jolyene, and Royal Occasion. You did good.

JOLYENE NICHOLE looks just about perfect. So pretty. And poor ANTIQUE ROSE looks pretty darn good for only half a bloom! LOL! Looks like you picked up some really nice ones.
