Uh Oh I may have to change my mind.....
Comments (9)Well this was at my sisters she has almost 3 acres that are surrounded by farmland. In the far back corner are a group of trees so who knows maybe this little guy ventured from that area. I have never been back in there to find out if a paw paw was mixed in that group but it would make sense. As far as me growing a paw paw well I did start some seeds this winter and I have one that has germinated. I am even more excited now about that. Since I rent I am going to plant it at my parents but it sounds like I may need to plant it at my sisters now. Hopefully by fall she will know more of what is going on with her husbands job and whether or not they are moving if she stays she is going to get her a paw paw tree regardless if she likes it or not, ha ha. Bev I may be totally incorrect here but I did read somewhere that was talking about letting the paw paw fruit fall to the ground and turn brown before harvesting or eating it. So maybe it wouldn't be so bad as you think. I also heard the flavor is close to that of a banana but creamier. Bad thing is that not all people can eat the fruit of a paw paw there are some that get really sick and sometimes it might not be on the first time they try the fruit. I forget if it was the amount they ate or just sampling it. I love bananas and my great grandmother that was full blooded cherokee use to grow paw paw trees and my father said she was fit as a fiddle. I am sure it wasn't just the paw paw, but I do figure she is where I get my desire for native fruits....See MoreI've changed my mind! Also, need opinions on drapery with bedding
Comments (3)One last thought - what about these prints in the guest room - do they work?...See MoreSo I'm thinking of changing my mind... again...
Comments (12)I really do like how bright it made that area look. I like it with the floor (which we both just love). I'm concerned that wood will look too "woody" traditional with the floor and table. Also, I thought it might be a good backdrop for the granite and backsplash which I have all along been coveting as my potential stars. Again... I can tell DH is not convinced. Not objecting, but I feel like it's a big concession for him. He actually values the opinions I get from this forum....See MoreI Changed My Mind...
Comments (4)Yes Rita, I agree with Jennifer....go for it. I change my mind sometimes and just do something different with finished blocks. This reminds me about something that happened last night. I would always make my bed after getting up. These past few months, I have often neglected it, just throwing the quilts over it in a haphazard manner. Last night hubby asked why I don't make the bed. I said..."what for? I don't want to do it. No one but us sees it. You don't care if it's made or not" DH laughed and agreed. Thinking about it, I realized that lately I am lax about the 'who-cares?' stuff. It feels good. ~Geraldine...See Moresheloveslayouts
