Mistakes are sometimes made you are forgiven. As it may seem like a " dohhhh WHY did I do that and then ask the question" Only to get what appears to be " ASK BEFOR YOU ACT "(For my responce you should also know: Oddly what some may neglect to tell you is Roses are also resiliant and sometimes also hardy ( EXP: I've had some of mine attact by deer and the roses din't seem to mind ) Ohh well: I guess I can't control everything Example: Like my last concern: The mighty rose gods may even tell you not to water leaves right after it rains. The rose that gets pruned in Florida is a rose pruned in Michican as well: Regardless if its new, old what ever rose it is. It is sometimes wise to let the rose grow the gardener who also grows the rose. Is it wise to prun in Winter ? No Will your roses die if you do it anways ? No Will your rose die if you dont do it ? No ( you might have some extra prunning to do in spring thou) When is the best time to prune your roses ? I don't know ask your rose. Mine say Mid/Late Fall one yr and early Srping anouther yr. Regardless of how the sun times shine which do change from month to month in total sunlight hours no matter where you live in the USA Peace Wes

Any interest in discussing character names? Since I didn't follow the first thread, I don't know if this has already been discussed. I found it interesting that certain characters were given names odd names and others were given common names. All the characters who have Latin names ending in "us" -- all those names have a meaning: Albus = white Rubeus (Hagrid) = red Sirius is the brightest star of the constellation Canis Major, the Greater Dog, Sirius Black = Black dog Remus Lupin - Remus of legendary Romulus and Remus, twins nursed by a she-wolf (Lupa means she-wolf) Argus (Filch) - Argus is a monster with a hundred eyes Severus = Severe Bilius (Ron's middle name) = peevish or ill-natured Lucius = bringer of light Regulus = prince or heart of the lion, it's the bright star in the constellation Leo Some other interesting names: Harry (from Harold meaning Army Ruler) Hermione (earthy) Ronald (Advisor to the king) James (means supplanter) Lily (the flower?) Draco = dragon (or serpent), also means cruel or severe Bellatrix = female warrior Pettigrew = small growth Fleur Delaceur = flower of the heart Tom = twin Narcissa = vanity, callousness and insensitivity Phineas (nigelus) = loudmouth As for Voldemort -- well mort means dead or death, and the only meaning I could find for Vold is that it means violent in Danish. Could = violent death? Anyway, I think a lot of these names are very interesting any comments?

Yes, Yes, Yes! Thank you so much for finding that for me. I'll save it this time! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

It shouldn't matter if you posted your recipes before as there are a lot of newer faces that may not have seen them. If we start a new list every month and you cannot find something you could always post what you are having for supper and the recipe that you are using even if it is a pinch of this and a handful of that ...opens up for discussions especially if it is something someone else has never tried and are hesitant to do so without the help of some of the great cooks/bakers in here. With a couple of big holidays coming everyone must have some favorites to pass on. Hopefully someone will do a few good winter soups and cookies for exchanges that they have made and are willing to pass on.
