I had no idea The Kitchen Table still existed. I was doing a sweet potato purée search and bam! The KT popped up. I can't remember what my name was here. I see familiar names though. I am Vicki and I live in Las Vegas. A pleasant surprise

You're a sweetheart, Tony, but that photo IS about 10 year old. I'm the pic-taker around here, so there aren't many photos of me... Some years ago, this forum had a thread "let's see what we all look like." I had my hubby snap one of me in my GH (MY natural habitat! I think I was a plant in a former life, LOL!) holding one of my giant Thai crown of thorns (another passion of mine.) I'm on a diet now, and if (no, WHEN) I get down to that weight again, I'll post an update of newer version of OLD me! LOL! Now, turnabout is fair play, so let's see YOU, kiddo! Denise

I had no idea Carding Mill was so beautiful!

I think we can safely blame(or actually thank) the fall weather for Carding Mill’s giant globe. Many of my blooms are looking different from the norm right now. Below is one of my potted Cream Verandas. It’s normally very peach or cream for me. I just looked at it, and it’s WAY pinker than what I usually get. I like it. It’s just about dark, so I hope you can still see the colors. I know Yves Paignet always has large frilly blooms, but mine are WAY larger than normal. These things are HUGE! I hope Carding Mill will give me a few more of those incredible globes before the spring flush. Lisa

I have my roses six feet apart but when I see so many roses look beautiful that intertwined with one another looks even more beautiful and compliments. I have Maggie and B.R.Cant. I left those 2 alone. Within 8 ft apart. But the rest, I start to put 1 or 2 within 6 feet and then realized what if...time will tell. Yes, temptations to buy more is bad. Limited space is another issue I have. And I know I messed up just matter of time. Unless, I redesign my backyard my chances are slim with limited funds. I rather do interior first maybe in time but I doubt it. Thinking of doing pots which I know nothing about is another research I need to do . Jin

I had no idea milkweed was such a thing

Abrahamx, I'm about as far north as you are. The Monarchs that make their way up here are second or third generation, so I don't usually see any in spring. They usually appear in mid to late July. They lay eggs, and the adults from those eggs fly north to Canada. The offspring of those northernmost Monarchs are the ones that migrate to Mexico. The North American Monarch population has dwindled severely over the last couple decades, making sightings a very rare thing, at least in my area. 50 years ago, I remember that almost every common milkweed I walked to, had at least one Monarch caterpillar. Today I can pass miles and miles of milkweeds without ever seeing one cat. 50 years ago the numbers of all butterfly species was abundant and the Zebra Swallowtails, Fritillaries,and Mourning Cloaks were in the area, but today those species are never seen. Paw Paw is rarely grown by people this far north, which may be one of the reasons why Zebras are't seen.

Welcome back. Hope you found a recipe! Most recently I was looking for one of my own recipes and couldn't find it. I know I posted it here so I searched it on the K.T. Voila! there it was.

Welcome back, Vicki, hope many of your former friends are still around.

Bring us up to date on happenings in your life, please.

I'm the same old guy, living alone near London, Ontario, and sad that for the last three years my substantial garden has been a disappointment.

Had radiation for prostate cancer last winter and six-month checkup shows I'm in remission - so as long as the doc's happy - I'm happy.
