Ronda, send me an email about the A. brevifolia. I think I can help you out. :) Christopher, your Aloe marlothii looks great! Similar to one I have, but I still don't know if that's it or if it's A. aculeata. Yours looks much better than mine! :P Nice Aloe vera, Andrew. Glad to hear you still have pups from it! Never too late, Chad! Two GREAT Agaves you have there! One of these days I will grow some variegated Aptenia too! Love it. Interesting your Astrophytum has very little speckling (white scales), aseedisapromise. Nice plants! ~Rosemarie

I had to chuckle to myself over the fact that you can have four or five in your kitchen--mine is so small that my DIL calls it a two butt kitchen! When we downsized so I could quit working, we bought a smaller, older home. The kitchen was just a little galley with really worn cabinets. We tore out everything and installed new oak cabinets and new appliances. Had to move a small window so it would be centered, then we installed the cabinets in a U shape. The kitchen is still small, but now I have lots more cabinets and counterspace at least. Really very convenient for just the two of us, everything is only a step or two away, and I really don't cook allot anymore. The biggest mistake I made was in not having my upper cabinets go all the way to the ceiling. Silly me, I wanted the space on top to display some of my knick knacks. Now as I'm getting older, the idea of climbing a step ladder to get up there to clean is less and less appealing! ;o( My neighbor is in the process of having her kitchen redone right now. They are doing new wiring, plumbing and cabinets too. Her floor plan is different from mine, but still a long galley style. She plans to extend her cabinets into the dining area for extra storage. I think it is so fun to see what a difference can be made. Luvs

Alphabet book words, please

I like your project. After your child gets older, you could make a book of place names listed in alphabetical order. You could fill it with places from A to Z, or use only places both of you have seen. And then, you could make a family album including all photos you have of relatives. This would be a great way to keep your children in touch with relatives. Then, there could be a book of foods, then animals. Come to think of it, you do not have to wait until the kids are older. Start your books now and then introduce those to your children at appropriate times. Maybe you could entice someone to write bed time stories to go with the illustrations.

Okay...I know this is a tough game. I googled "toys from the 70's and found lots of web pages with toys I had forgotten I played with.
