Hello from a Missouri gal!

Tell us about yourself! We are a nosey bunch! lol

Welcome! From the Treasure Coast of FL. Pull up a chair. Did you bring chocolate? LOL
Marion

Hi and welcome to our group from my part of Texas.
MaryAnn

Welcome! I brought your favorite beverage

Welcome!

Most of us are friendly, you have to really watch out for Maryann and Linda though!

ahahahahaa

The poster says: "You sound like a friendly group of people." I wonder how long we can keep her believing that. LOL

Welcome to the club. Did you bring any chocolate? I'll supply the tea.

Shirley/Ohio

Welcome SayHello, where are you from.
Nebraska here.
Leslie

Welcome from Southern California! Another chocolate lover here - dark preferred. :-)

Glad you weren't scared off! LOL....nice to meet you!

Ole joyful: A hundred or so  oh yeah, one can never have too many friends.
Linda from GA: IÂve found a very comfy seat, thanks.
Glenda: peanut butter is one of my favorite soul foods!
Marion: You mean I have to bring my own chocolate?
Dirtyfingernails: thanks so much for the champagne!
Everyone: Thank you for the very warm welcome. Gardening is my addiction of choice. I love to cook, fish, kayak, read, dance, and sing. I am originally from Florida and donÂt miss it much. I am a single woman (twice, LOL). I would rather garden than most anything else I can think of, and grow mostly perennials. I recently tried to downsize and moved from a two-story house with full basement and double-car garage  to five rooms, no basement, no garage. But I have two huge flowerbeds. IÂm convinced that I am now severely deprived, and will start house-hunting next spring (hoping home sales are revived by then).
Again, thanks for the welcomes. I look forward to seeing you in the Recipes and other gardening areas.

You are going to love this place sayhello... I too am a single gal and I live in Southern California. I'm trying to close my escrow so I can get out of the property game for awhile. I have owned my duplex for 34 years and it's time! So welcome and enjoy yourself! I'm bringing the chocolate covered strawberries...

~Susan

Yes welcome to the KT - it's a wonderfully friendly group with lots of diverse interests,talents and perspectives. I'm a Zone 6 in New Jersey. What part of the country are you gardening in?

A great big welcome from your former state of Florida! I live 4 miles inland from the Gulf-between Clearwater Beach & Madeira Beach.
I've had a seat at the KT since 1999 and you won't find a friendlier bunch of people anywhere. It's really like having an extended family.
So what state are you living in now? I read your post twice & guess I either missed it or you didn't say.
Since I don't really like chocolate, I'll be serving my Lemon Sponge Pie at the Table to Welcome you! See ya' at the Recipes forum.
Sharon

We are so glad you decided to join us - please participate in our threads. This is the greatest group of cyber friends - you will really enjoy your stay!

Welcome to the great group, I'm Linda and I'm from:

Hi there hello...welcome from Mississippi............

Linda

Welcome from Minnesota.
Once in a while the ladies let a guy pull a chair up to the table. As long as we behave ourselves.

Ron

Always great to have a new friend at the table. I live in Ocala Fl--horse country with rolling hills and very pretty. I brought beer and pretzels. Since you've been reading here you already know how much fun everyone is. So welcome sayhellonow!!

Sayhello, welcome to the Kitchen Table!

I'm Carol, and I'm from...

Welcome!!

I'm sort of new too. Have been posting about a month.

Judy in Illinois

Donna from So. Central Mo.

Hi & Welcome to the KT!

Donna (^_^)

Hey there "hello". I "met" you on the TSL Forum. Welcome to the KT!! I don't get to this sight as much as I used to, but these ARE a great bunch - very supportive too. I was relatively new during Christmas and participated in the Christmas Card Exchange. That was so special to me - exchanging cards from EVERYWHERE!! You'll love it here.

Welcome!

Hi there from Western NC. I'm fairly new too, and this is my first stop every morning. Great folks! Welcome, welcome, welcome!

A very hearty hello, welcome and pleased to meet another gardening addicted friend...I know we will be friends, 'cause gardeners stick together. I am in PA and perennials is my favorite game too. Happy that you decided to show yourself and join in on the fun.

Welcome! Glad you decided to join us.

Susan: chocolate covered strawberries! I call you a *real* friend (LOL)

McMann and Sharon: I am in Salt Lake City, zone 5, transported via my job, hating it at first and loving it now. Actually, I should say that *overall* I like it. That's because spring keeps teasing us right now, sending winter in its place. Tomorrow, 70 degrees, then 42 on Sunday. Go figure!

Sharon: Lemon Sponge Pie? I wanna get that recipe. It will be great with chocolate covered strawberries (grin).

Hi Ron: Thank you for pulling up my chair. You picked the most comfy one here. (We have to behave? Are you sure?)

Patti: Even though I donÂt miss the FL weather, I do love the horse country and youÂre right: rolling hills and *very* pretty. Shoulda had the beer and pretzels before the berries, pie, and cookies. LetÂs save them for afternoon on the patio, ok?

Deb: Those are my favorite cookies. IÂm stuffing them in all of my pockets.

Gneegirl: yes, I think TSL is a really good forum. So glad to know you.

To all of you whose names I didn't mention, thank you so very much. There sure are a lot of you here. How great it is to know all of you, and to be greeted so warmly. Life is good!

Hello from Texas!

I'm suppose to go to Utah in August to Lake Powell, but it isn't real firm. It's a looooong trip by Motorhome.

What a change from Florida to Utah.

Gayle

WARNING! The KT will suck you in and you will be here for hours on end. Nothing will get done around your house!
(but it's a good thing!)
Welcome, Kathy G in MI

It's great to have you here SayHello!! no one has told you this but newbies MUST bring Choklit and TEA to the table...and sweep up after us oldtimers for the first month....(isn't it great to be in cyberland...sweeping is such a breeze and there's no calories in the choklit!)
