What an important reminder! And hopefully finding this in a search will quickly answer that perennial question of whether we mean the screw-cap when we talk about putting the lid or top on a jug (we don't!) I, too, have used jugs saved with the caps on--yuck! Even worse were the ones fished out of the recycling center; they were never even rinsed. That was a desperate first WS winter! I think it was Seedmama who suggested having a candle burning nearby when you clean the stinky jugs, so the flame burns the nasty smell! Unless it was you, Trudi. I saved a bunch of caps to the milk and the 2-liters, and they have come in handy. Like mmqc mentioned, for transporting water. I've also used them as invisible feet indoors, to get some things up off a floor that gets damp. Using them as pot feet didn't occur to me, though!

Hey T I'm just wondering why you state just zones 6-9. Temperates need dormancy no matter what zone they are in. That's nature for anyone interested. Hope you can get this figured out there T.

Cindy & Kristi & Kate, Happy Birthday!!! Cracker Roses are Red, Violas are Blue, Orang blossom honey is sweet and so are all of YOU! Best wishes from the bad poet...Happy Birthday and Valentine's Day and have a great weekend!!! P.S. Cindea did I kill the green ice plant from the swap or is it dormant? P.P.S. Happy BIRTHDAY! xo m

I thought she would too, Karen, normally she loves when we bring out "her" teapot and special yellow cups. However, I think the swing, digging in the dirt, and helping the dogs search the block wall for lizards won out this time! LOL We're in the 80's this week, so it's wonderful. I'm happy if it stays out of the three digits! I've been taking walks in the morning and evening and loving the cool breeze. Gotta enjoy it while I can, I know the heat will come before summer is over! Then I give thanks daily for the inventor of air conditioning! LOL Always love seeing all your wonderful items, and you really do have a knack for displaying things. Always love seeing your pictures. ;o) Luvs
