What new product are you dying to have?

23 years ago

I was dying to have the coluzzle starting kit but I got that the other day, now I am thinking I want the alphabet template to go with it. Aghhhh.... This is a never ending cycle. So what are you dying to get? Penny

Want a list? :)

Actually, right now I'd really like my own circle cutter. I use the one that my CMC provides when I go to the crops so when I do crop at home, I can't make circles or ovals.

But then I go through a several week phase where I don't crop at home at all and it makes me think I would have wasted the money. That's why I haven't bought one yet.

and I always want more punches. :)

Actually, my sil showed me the Mulberry Paper, I'd like to try a page using that.

Hi Joyce, How are you doing? My splurge of this year was Rhino Hide ordered from Naylor Creek. I will get that order in late May via Hosta Choice in Canada. I've ordered I don't know how many from three sources. Some are replacements for ones I lost last year and are expecially welcome. Another one I've wanted for a long time (based on pictures) is Sergeant Pepper. It's not a new one but I've been drawn to the subtle varigation. I'm anxious to see ALL of them. Myrle

What new varieties have you tried that you will grow again?

I grew a variety of the most talked about heirlooms this year. This was my first time trying anything other than Early Girls and similar varieties. Thanks to all on this forum for getting me out of my early-hybrid rut. I acknowledge that everyone's taste is different, but here's what I observed in my multitude of taste tests this year:. The Brandywine Sudduth had an amazingly smooth, creamy, dense meat. It has been described as almost a buttery texture. That's what I thought when I tasted it. I found the Stump of the World, the Brandywine OTV, and the Brandyboy to be very similar to the B-wine Sudduth in texture; different, but similar, in taste and all VERY GOOD. The OTV sometimes had less smooth texture, almost on the edge of being mealy, dependent on overnight cold temps. Marianna's Peace had a Sudduth-like texture, although a bit less dense and a bit lighter flavor. I liked Marianna's Peace BEST of ALL. The PrudenÂs Purple also had a Sudduth-like texture and the taste was good, but noticeably not as good as those mentioned above. It had the very best taste and texture of all the shorter season tomatoes in my greenhouse, though. My Prudens Purple vines were earlier than my Early Girls and much better tasting, meatier, and with a smoother denser texture. The Neves had a rich meaty texture, more traditional, and not so creamy smooth, but never mealy. It had a very rich, rich, rich tomatoey flavor. It is our favorite for flavor. PRODUCTION The numbers below show my best production numbers so far. My semi-insulated heated greenhouse is still producing: Goliath Hyb.........ÂÂ.12 @ 105oz Neves Azorean Red.......8 @ 104oz Brandywine OTV..........5 @ 88oz Marianna's Peace.....Â. 5 @ 84oz Prudens Purple........Â.. 7 @ 84oz Sophie's Choice.....Â...17 @ 84oz Mortgage Lifter#1....Â17 @ 80oz Mortgage Lifter#2...ÂÂ6 @ 77oz Early Girl Hyb......ÂÂ.16 @ 75oz Brandyboy Hyb........Â...7 @ 75oz Early Goliath Hyb.....Â..8 @ 65oz Stump of the World...Â.3 @ 55oz Brandywine Sudduth......2 @ 45oz Stupice...........ÂÂÂ...25 @ 42oz Next year I will grow MariannaÂs Peace and Neves for taste and production. I will grow some Prudens purple for EARLINESS, to tide us over til the others ripen. I donÂt think I will have space for any "early" hybrids in my garden next year. Happy Growing, Bob-northernlight

Grace, I looked it up and so far I've only read one article recommending Soft Scrub with bleach. Is your sink white? Before I started using the Kohler cleaner (I bet it may work on fire clay, something worth looking into), after I cleaned my sink I'd use Clorox Bleach Foamer, I think it was for bathrooms, but used it on my kitchen sink and it whitened the sink and left it shiny. But the fumes were awful so I'd open windows and leave the room for a few minutes. It worked pretty good.

A few weeks ago I went to a scrapbook convention in Arlington, TX and took a class about how to use Zig Twin tip markers. Even though I hate my own handwriting (and currently use my computer for my journaling) I think I HAVE to have a big set of these pens. They have four sets, and I would love all four but each one (with 48 pens)costs $100.00! I keep looking for a good deal on one of these pen sets but none of the craft stores in my area carry them. I would even settle for a used set. Anyone out there want to part with their set?

Hi- this is the first time I have posted here, but I am a scrap book maniac. Right now I want the Fiscars rotary blade paper cutter. My friend has it and does not like it, but I love it. Unfortunately she does not want to get rid of hers - darn!

Ooh, that would have to be the new dragonfly punch from McGill (part of their new outdoor series). Or the frog. They're SO COOL! Have you seen these babies?! Hold me back! :o)

I'd also like to get the Coluzzle templates; the strong arm punch (much cheaper than a power punch!); and lots of other things!!! LOL I have a Fiskars oval cutter that I personally don't use alot if someone wanted to swap somethin'. Have any of you tried the doodle cutter? It's pretty handy for cutting...anything! :o)

I would LOVE to have a Xyron machine, but can't see spending that much on one. Also, i think I would go through the rolls of adhesive fast!

Definitely those punches, too! I am punch deprived. My LSS doesn't see the different shapes as necessities. I do!!! LOL!!!

An embossing machine for embossing the binders and fronts of my albums. Does anyone know where I can find one, how easy is it to use and how much it costs?
This is sure a fun site!!
Thanks,
Barbara
