NEW: All My Bloomin Friends 'Sept. Fall Foliage Swap'

brittneysgran
17 years ago

It's time to sign up for the Fall Foliage Swap. Hope everyone in the group can do this one. Fall is a great time to plant our bulbs for Spring Flowers. After we know everyone who wants to participate we will pick partners. Yes I said pick partners. I will take sign ups until Monday August 28th. Then starting Tuesday August 29th each player will post the name of who they want to send to them. WE will do this until everyone is taken.

    Yawn, stretch... yawn, yawn. Up and Adam ladies and let the picking begin...whoops, guess I'm a late bloomer.

    Veeja11 Carol I pick you. Last can sometimes be a good thing or even great thing. You know the old saying "Good things come to those who wait" or is it "I don't want to wait to long for good things to come" ha ha ha. Just kidding around alittle. Either way I guarantee you will love the wonderful things coming your way sometime soon.
    Peace

    Well, I had a rough day at work yesterday, then went out for wings and beer with a friend afterwards. By the time I got home, I was exhausted and fell asleep within minutes of closing my eyes. Guess I got in a little late for the picking and choosing. :)

    Since I'm fairly new and don't know much about anybody here, I'll pick lil green thumb as it can be hard being a noob. ;) Must be my childhood fear of being the last one picked for kickball or something that makes me want to help others out. LOL

    Anita, Thank you. Nobody is to blame. : ) Carol, some rat-tail radish and Centaura 'Black Ball' seeds went out to you today. It's really great to meet internet friends. Grannymarsh and I have seen eachother several times. The first time was to get some "black gold" from us, since we have cows. I saw that she was from the UP too. I've met several of my online garden friends. It's really great! Treasa

    Super swap packages! I love the Big Red Barn. Annie, that is fine for you to post before the end of the month. You are always so creative with the swaps you are hostess for - can't wait to see what it will be. Many of my seeds get stored in those decorative boxes (shoe box sized) that are intended for storing photos. I add alphabetical dividers and then place my seed packets in clear baggies behind the letter that it goes under (for example marigold, morning glories, etc. all in a zip lock bag together after the divider for M. I also have a big shopping bag with others - this is where my tin storage container with my tomato seeds and seeds I am planning to plant soon, etc. go. (Of course with those that are set aside to get planted soon - it doesn't always happen!) Here's where we are at with the swap: Swap to be sent by Jeanne SENT ** AliceâÂÂs Adventures in Wonderland chosen by Erica Swap to be sent by Nicole RECEIVED BY SHERI ** Big Red Barn chosen by Sheri Swap to be sent by Annie SENT ** Charlie and the Chocolate Factory chosen by Mary Swap to be sent by Margo **If You Give a Mouse a Cookie chosen by Susan Swap to be sent by Shirley ** Jake Hatches a Plan chosen by NonnaG Swap to be sent by Mary ** Linnea in MonetâÂÂs Garden chosen by Shirley Swap to be sent by Susan ** Magic Locket chosen by by Jayeanne Swap to be sent by Jayeanne - SENT ** Pinkalicious chosen by Margo Swap to be sent by Sheri RECEIVED BY JEANNE ** Pinocchio chosen by Jeanne Swap to be sent by Erica RECEIVED BY NICOLE ** Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs chosen by Nicole Swap to be sent by NonnaG SENT ** The Hungry Caterpiller chosen by Promise Swap to be sent by Promise ** The Wizard of Oz chosen by Annie I hope that's right. If not, just correct me. I'm so glad everyone is enjoying this theme and it's so interesting to see what has been sent! Jeanne

    LOL Everyone! You are all too funny! And too nice : )

    Carol,
    See what meds do to me! LOL! I never made the connection about the ice cream comment! But I was getting the urge because ice cream was mentioned in Susan's and Maryanne's post before mine.

    Maryanne,
    Congratulations on the job. An hour away does suck. Hopefully the next job is closer.

    And thinking of canning, everyone should of seen the basket of goodies Maryanne left for my in-laws! All kinds of items pickled and jams!
    I did send the Spiced Candy Apple Rings to Carol, so if anyone else wants the recipe, I can send the e-mail to you.

    Maureen,
    I will make sure I put some thing in your box if I end up sending to you on of these months.

    Char
    I don't like beets, but I do love horseradish. I grow it. Do you just add pieces of horseradish to a dill pickle recipe?

    I think that is all, lol.

Lil green thumb what would you like more than anything excluding 100.00 plants. a box with anything wolf in it is #1 in my book I collect wolf statues love getting them from different states. I have lots of daylillies so am only adding spacecoasts and doubles, this is easier than trying to update my list I can't seem to get in there.any more apple canning recipies?

    I just had to tell you about the nice surprise I got today. Maryanne sent me a get well card, a book, a pkg. of seeds, and copies of the photos of Jessica and me! Oh and a letter thanking me again for the stay in Niagara Falls. Isn't she just too nice! It was such a pick me up: )
    Theresa,
    Congratulations on the new job! What ages are you teaching? Between work and your boys, you must be getting exausted.
    Nancy,
    I think your name idea was a good one! Back when I first signed on here, you didn't need to make up a name. I'm glad I didn't have to think something up. Of course people still think mine is a fake name, lol.
    Have a good night,

    Susie I need the frogsters questionaire please? has someone chosen Beth ? she sends awesome boxes. I would have liked to pick her but wanted to share her. I want to see Will and Boogie out of bb. I shampooed my living room carpet tonight. I have been doing spring cleaning this month. My dh is now the manager of the plumbing dept at our local lowes. some toilets were 90 per cent off so he bought me a 160.00 one for 16.00 so now I want a jacuzzi tub. does anyone have a house in the hamptons they would like to let me stay at next year for vacation. I hear it is the place to go. good night all I am tired I stayed up past 9 last night

    Klickitat - Jules I pick you to send to hope you will enjoy.

    I'm not really sure Remy what the recipe calls for. I've bought the pickles at the farmers market but I will see if I could get it for you though. Those pickles are hard to stop eating let me tell ya.

    Yay Cedarnest!!! I think I have lots of stuff for you....I love your GW name.
    Congrats on the new job Theresa! I've been meaning to tell you everything you sent me earlier this summer is blooming away, you are an awesome trade partner.... God Bless all our teachers at the start of the new school year, give them strength...I know Mellen's a teacher anyone else????

    Remy, cigarettes bad, ice cream good!!! Prevents osteoporosis. The chocolate fudge brownie frozen yogurt at my house is reserved for me. Thats right. ICE CREAM FOR EVERYONE!!! Besides Otis(dog) and I were out in the heat all morning, got to cool off.....

    Carol---I want Boogie and Will out the house too. My father in law is a dermatologist (in Olympia WA)he would never use botox on himself...Will creeps me out. My daughter is a Jannelle fan now .....

    Well since Beth didnt pick me I am sending her something anyway. Will need a bucket of water on arrival.... :P

    Beth, old girl you got picked twice, word got out about your special boxes. Susie. confused carol needs the greenies questionaire not the frogsters, darn and I just made the frogster a hat so gotta do another, kim or kimberly? I think Debby a got beth first. Marsha and Jeanette I need your pics in your hats, so I can get a beginning group photo done. hugs carol

  • grannymarsh

    Yup, debbya did choose Beth first. So, I'll pick debbya. Outside stuff debbya.

  • mellen
    17 years ago

    Beth does do awesome boxes. I can attest to that every month from another swap we are on.

    Hello, Marsha!

    Susan, Thanks so much for the prayers for the teachers. That means so much. I know already I will be needing them this year. It's already looking like a bigger repeat of last year. Too many students, too little time, and too much paperwork. Already. The kids are the only reason I stay.

    Theresa, a PE teacher? For what age group? Best wishes and great luck to you!!!

    Maryanne, are you disappointed that I didn't pick you? LOL

    Klick-thanks for the reminder about the hostess gift. I've been out of the loop for a couple of months.

    Carol, Muy congrats on DH's promotion. Wonderful news! That's a cheap throne, too. Lucky you! Is it senior citizen height? When we built our new home 3 years ago, we had the senior thrones put in--just "looking ahead to someday," you know? Now when we go to other RR's, it's like you're falling to the floor, and I can't get up.

    Our group here sounds like such a great group of gals. We are all so kind and thoughtful with each other. This is really something rather rare if you think about it. I appreciate being a part of this.

    Mary Ellen/Mellen

    17 years ago

    mellen, i am always glad when we chose each other, but since we swap so much, it was nice to have other trade partners (don't want people getting the wrong impression!)
    i am however, trying to figure out that falling on the floor thing...but i guess I'M JUST NOT OLD ENOUGH YET !!!!
    LMAO

    i too must agree that this is a wonderful group of people/gardeners/traders. it's been a real delight thus far.

    so are we all picked and accounted for?

    i have all intentions of working outside this weekend doing some clean up. should be a little easier to weed considering the monsoon we've had the one coming. be safe all those in ernesto's path.

    sue sGuanzon...please go through my list and pick out some things that might be of interest to you. i do have your trade page to consider and the questionnaire that you completed, but if you look over my list and anything really appeals to you, please let me know...don't be afraid to suggest many things, this way i'll have a choice of what's available to trade/divide. also, you have a 14 year old? tell me a little about her, if you don't mind. you can just send me an e-mail, if that's your preference to not post it here.

    i paid $2.59/9 for gas this morning. this is the cheapest i have seen it in quite a bit. i waited until i got to jersey to fill up, considering the lowest i've seen PA is 2.71. crazy huh? especially in light of the fact that all this gas has been in storage for the last 2 years at least and i don't remember gas being that high two years ago.

    everyone have any exciting plans for the holiday weekend?

    remy, thanks for the kind words...hope you enjoy your box of goodies and i so enjoyed putting the basket together for your in-laws. i was sorry i didn't have any pepper jam to add in there. i might make some this weekend if i don't get lost in the weeds.

    be well all, happy blooms

    i too want will and mike G O N E
    i don't think either should win and i can't believe the girls are that stupid. i certainly can't believe erika's reasoning behind getting rid of danielle...that she can't win against her...does she really think SHE has a chance?

    janelle, in my opinion, deserves it all the way. she's the strongest, toughest competitor. if will wins (again) i am off BB for ever

    off my soapbox now....back to work

  • mellen
    17 years ago

    DH and I watched BB for the first time ever during supper the other night. What a couple of creeps those two guys are. Made my skin crawl. How could that girl fall for that?

    Shirley, I want to "ditto" what Maryanne said. Anything you see on my list that you would be interested in, you just let me know. I will see if it is big enough or I have more than one to send. DON'T be shy!!! If your list is l-o-n-g, that is fine. That would be a help, actually, 'cuz a bunch of my stuff is new this year.

    Maryanne, TV has been saying that IA has had the lowest gas prices in the US. We have been at 2.55 or lower for the past week now. Go figure.

    We are going to MO to my in-laws for the week-end. Jim's sister and brother-in-law are having a big shindig. They are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary plus they both turned 60 this year. I will be serving cake. I hope it makes it into the newspaper. "....and Mary Ellen Power, sister-in-law of the couple from Iowa served cake." That's small town for you. Really.

    BTW, I am not old, I just have bad knees. Just wanted to straighten that out. lol

    I am doing this on my break. I better use the rest of the time for what I'm really her for, suppose? Beautiful thoughts, everyone! Mellen

    Earthly --

    You are such a dear! I will look at your list again and send you an email.

    I *love* to talk about my daughter - Ava - my one and only and light of my life! She's just entered high school (school colors are green/yellow/black/white)and already she made Junior Varsity cheer! Not really unexpected since she was in Cheer in middle school and before that in the Young Olympians since she was 6 - LOL! She's really pretty (doesn't look a thing like mom!) slim with long dark hair, beautiful golden complexion and dark eyes. She likes all the things that 14 year olds like (MySpace, junkfood, cell phones,talking back, staying up to late - you know the routine!) Thanks so much for asking about her......

If it is ok lunamoon you can send to me and I will send to you. Lord knows I have 100's of things to thin down. I have just started Fall clean up in my beds.

    Earthly-Our gas here is $2.89...Whew I dread pulling up to those pumps.

    Mellen-I would love to send you a list of some things I am looking for. It in no way means I want everything on the list just giving you some ideas. My hat is off to you being a teacher. I sure would hate to be one these days.

    Sguanzon-My granddaughter used to cheer but she gave it up to play basketball. She is sweet 16 and the only GD that I have. She is just like mine, when she doesn't get money, etc. at home she comes to grandma.

    It is raining cats and dogs today. We are getting lots of rain off the hurricane.

    debbya-Sorry I missed you picking Beth. Fixed it though.

    Earthly - Please let me know if there is anything you're looking for that's not on your list. Glad to be back in a swap. I've been missing out the last couple months!

    Ernesto snuck through here so quietly and quickly that we hardly even noticed him. Hope that's true for the rest of the season.

    Hi All my bloomin' friends. Amy, I'm so happy you picked me :-)

    Can someone please email me her questionnaire. I think all of mine are on my work computer and I won't be in work till next week.

    I need to find out what Amy likes/wants.

    Also, Amy please send me an email if you have any updates of what you like and want. I have lots of things that aren't on my trade list so please make of list of things you want, ok? Please don't be shy. And you have 5 boys??? I love boys and only have 1. You must be a busy lady with 5 boys. Wow.

    Be back tomorrow to catch up with all my friends here.

    I'm sick, I ate 1/2 of a half gallon of black raspberry icecream (no, I'm not pregnant :-) and my stomach is NOT feeling good after that.

    Sweet dreams all,

    Happy Birthday Tina and Beth, Hope you both have a wonderful Birthday!

    Maureen, I do have 5 boys (2 are my stepsons) and they are great. They keep me busy the youngest is 4 and the oldest is 18 (my stepson) just headed off to college in VA. I think gardening is the calm in my life because they guys are all very active. We moved to Georgia last year after living in S.W Fl. most of my life. We live in a very small town and have a home that was built in 1812. We have done a lot to fix the house up and I am dreaming of someday having my yard look like a cottage garden. I love the look of old fashioned roses and flowers everywhere. This year has been really hard though because we have had a drought and it has been hard on all my plants. I wintersowed this past winter and loved all my plants that grew. I am not picky at all and I love all plants and anything to do with gardening. Have a wonderful weekend. Amy

    Theresa, If you have any extra hints or wants for me please let me know. Thank you, Amy

    hello everyone. weather is very intense today/tonight. shirley, sure hope you are not in this storms path.

    carol, i sent those mold things (kind of like a joke, but they are useful), becase a while back you actually had mold and weren't sure how to test it...remember? not on your feet though, as i recall.

    happiest of birthdays to beth and tina. beth, are you getting hit with this weather as well? not sure what part of MD you are in. we only have one state separating us...one of these days, it would be nice to meet.

    wow amy - 5 boys. GOD BLESS YOU!

    i spent some real quality time with "my baby" today. she's so yummy. my heart can't get enough of her.

    oh well, dogs are going crazy with the rain and wind...be back later .

    have a safe weekend all, stay dry!

    i sent marsha her hostess gift too, but haven't heard weather she received it.

    sue/squazon - i certainly enjoyed reading above ava and can hear the pride even in your type. thanks for sharing.

    theresa, i'm happy with whatever you decide to send me. i'll leave it to you and appreciate whatever you decide to send.
