That's funny. I have a two year old who like unripened tomato and, strangely, strawberries. Its been tough keeping her out of the garden long enough for my fruit to ripen, every time I turn around she has some green tomato or strawberry in her mouth, sour grimace on her face and the words Yummy in my tummy muffling through her full mouth. Funny and frustrating =)

I participated in a daylily swap on the round robin forum and I now have my reds (and purples!). Request expired. :-)

Thank you all. As I said, I did this late at night and I didn't spend a lot of time with it. Next time, I would make a good template. With wrapping paper, there will be so many options. I'm going to be keeping my eyes opened for a good plaid for next Christmas. Christmas Tree Shops have shades for $1? Wow, I wish we had one near by. I've never seen the chandelier shades for less than $4 except when they're on sale. The ones I have were $2.50 on close out. - Gail

Hi Murrywoods, I agree with Palimpset. If you post a propoed layout it would really help. Also, besides the dark hardwood floors and white Chantilly Lace cabinets, what other elements were you planning on using from our kitchen? Ex. Layout, pendants over an island, etc? It would really help us to advise you.
