Lumpy, you are right. The pink one in the back is Encyclia Cordigera. The tag says it smell like chocolate... I love chocolate scent! The Catt. in front is polka dot " Nalo". It is fragrant too. In this group, only the Dancing Lady " Sweet Ears" does not have scent. but it has pretty flowers... Majority of them have very healthy roots, only couple that start to have root rot issue. In general, these orchid are in much better/healthier condition than most moth orchids I have seen at Lowe's My guess is that these are U.S grow orchids, not like other orchids which may be shipped from overseas. I just repotted them with much fast drain orchid mix. Pray they'll survive. Sunshine, now you've mentioned it, I recall that I have never seen Lowe's carries B. nodosa and Maxillaria either till I bought them. All I've seen were the Catt. and Oncid. too just like what you've seen. Maybe these were in the back roll that I could have missed it. There is a very good orchid farm here, I usually get my orchids from them , not from Lowe's. I will browse for a bargain but will not seriously pay an orchid with full price at Lowe's. It may well be those Catt. and Oncid. etc. more showy flowers caught my eyes. Anyways, Lowe's must have had it somewhere. You might check your local Lowe's store again to see if you've missed them.

I had planned my kitchen remodel intending to use a OTR MW. When I had all my ideas down I ran them by a kitchen designer who axed the OTR MW immediately. There were several reasons, one of which is the vent does not work very well. But the most important point I realized was the poor ergonomics of reaching that high. I am trying to keep ergonomics in mind. The Sharp OTC still sits up off the counter but not as high up as an OTR type. We are getting the Sharp R-1214. I also enjoyed looking at the following pictures of where others in this forum put their MW's. Hope it doesn't confuse you more :) see link below Here is a link that might be useful: microwave placement

yep they get into roses. they do eat the insides down the center of the rose. I kill them every chance I get. They are not as bad/messy as some beetles but no good just the same.

Hi Shelley! This is one of the best hang-out spots I know of on or off the net.

Not much of a sports fan myself but I did see a bumper sticker today that made me smile... it went...

I hate three things:
Warm beer
Cold women
and Jeff Gorden

Welcome to the warmest "cyber" kitchen on the net, Shelley! I hope you'll stay around and share some good recipes with us. I'm not as good a cook as lots of my forum friends here, but always receive support and good advice whenever I ask. Once in a while, I even contribute a recipe or two:-)

Shelley, welcome to the cooking forum. My DH and DS are Nascar fans and have been to a few races and keep up with it. I went to one race in Las Vegas and liked it ok, but I would rather cook or garden. LOL

This is a great forum. I have got many good recipes and tips from here, alot more than I have given.

Hi Shelley, welcome to the cooking forum! I'm a relative newcomer to the group and everyone has been very warm and welcoming to me I know they'll be the same for you! I'm not a big NASCAR fan (just too long sitting there watching them go around in BIG circles), but I do like going to the 1/4 mile dirt track on occasion. It's fun to drink your beer through a straw (so you don't end up with dirt in it) and watch races that are done in 20 minutes each! :)

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome, Shelley! I love this group, too, and have learned so much from them. I'm afraid I take more than I give, here, as everyone here has so many more recipes that I do.

I was going to ask who Dale Jr. is, but I'm guessing he has something to do with NASCAR from the responses. You can tell how much attention I spend to loud cars going around in circles. lol.

I'm looking forward to your future posts.

Hi there Shelley!!

I am so glad to meet you!!

I am not too much of a nascar fan but husband and son are.
Much of what I have learned has come from what I overhear the boys talking about. A few years ago I thought it would be fun to join their fantasy league so I plopped down the fee and picked my team.
Now keep in mind I am not knowledgable at all and I picked my team based one factor...age.
So I picked Mark Martin as my first driver.
In the end I beat all 38 guys and the other lady, winning the jackpot!!

That being said I have only gone to one race,,,,the Pocono race. It was the longest day of my life but at least I can say I did it.

I do like my PHILLIES though!!!

Cheers!

Welcome, Shelley! Glad you decided to quit lurking and really meet us. I'm originally from Biloxi, and lived in Jackson for 4 years after college. I worked at the Children's Hospital, Baptist Hospital and Womans Hospital there. We live in Colorado now, but I still have lots of friends in the Jackson area. I'm not into NASCAR, but my best friend in Starkville loves it, so she fills me in on the big names and events.

I look forward to geting to know you better.
