Summer is the best time to buy a snow blower.
Comments (4)Nothing but rain here for the past week. I could really use some sun and heat right about now. Other than that, it's going to be a long wait till december when I can put the brute to work....See MoreBest Roses in Late Summer
Comments (35)Hi Carol: Thank you for your positive feedback .. I love all the pics. of your garden, esp. of your little girl ... would love to see more! I have 52 varieties. I received 6 yesterday from Roses Unlimited, which makes it 58 roses. Roses in zone 5a stay small due to winter-die back, so I can fit them into my garden. Their being own-roots make them small too. My own-root W. Shakespeare 2000 is the size of a mini-rose. I thought I'm the only one, until Rosefolly reported growing hers in a pot. I'm happy that 2 of my large trees died during last year drought, which means more room for roses. Hi noseometer: In the English Roses Forum, RosarianPK's canal soil has a pH over 8, with temp. near 120 degrees. His favorite roses that bloomed at high heat are Fragrant Cloud and Meilland roses. Firefighter is also a Meilland rose, does well in my hot summer. Dry and hot climate usually have alkaline soil. Some tap water are alkaline due municipals putting lime to prevent pipes from being corroded. French roses like Meilland and Romanticas can handle alkaline soil and water well, plus loving the heat. I agree that Frederic Mistral is NOT good for hot sun ... his color get bleached out to blah, plus he's a water-hog in my zone 5a. When I researched on Peter Mayle for my rose order of next year ... I find people in hot and dry climate really like Peter Mayle. His color is deep-pinkish red, and smells great. Kate (Dublinbay) listed that among her best roses in summer heat. I also saw Braveheart rose blooming at the rose park at 100 degrees, but that has no scent. Roses with thick petals that last one week in the vase can stand up to heat well, I still regret not getting Bewitched Hybrid tea, that smells good also ... but I already have Frederic Mistral, vase life is shorter, and needs more water. If you google "Bewitched rose and HMF", it will show the info. that Bewitched rose is heat-tolerant. If you choose ADVANCED SEARCH option in HMF, click on GROWING option (zone, plant use, disease resistant, growing note), then scroll way down to page, and check the box next to HEAT TOLERANT, then click CONTINUE ... it will list the roses that are heat-tolerant such as: Angel Face floribunda, Stephen Big Purple, Bewitched, and Romantica Auguste Renoir.

Comments (37)definately a BLT! When I make sandwiches for lunch, I make two, one for me and one for DH. Recently we were sitting here munching on BLTs, and as I was getting toward the end of the sandwich, I asked DH if he noticed that --- when we have BLTs, he NEVER gets that last 1/4 of my sandwich that I usually can't finish. He said "I sure did notice that!" I never turn over that last portion to him when it is a BLT, but every other kind I do -- oh, wait I also always finish a grilled cheese (but the is a winter sandwich.)...See MoreToday is "Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day"
Comments (10)The best grilled sandwich I have ever had has a story behind it. The day before Mothers Day in 2002 I got a phone call at 6 in the morning that my Mom had been taken to the hospital and was being prepped for surgery for a blocked bowel. Mom was 92 years old and had a stroke 10 years prior, confined to a wheelchair and diabetic. I was on the road within a half hour for the 110 mile trip to the hospital. My brother got to the hospital about the same time I did. We didn't get there in time to see her before surgery. It was a very long anxious day of worrying, waiting for some positive news. It was a difficult time the surgeon told us after about 5 hours and gave her a 30% chance of making it through the day. Finally at about 7pm we were able to see Mom. She was awake and we were encouraged by her smile and I love you's Then Bob and I allowed ourselves to try to get something to eat. This was a very tiny hospital that was set to close down soon. Just a tiny room was set up where coffee was available along with maybe a cookie or doughnut. There was a grill, but service there closed at 5pm. An aid took pity on us and offered to fix us a cup of coffee and that the best she could offer to eat was a toasted cheese sandwich. It was just that, toast and a slice of cheese, but by far the best I have ever had....See More- 9 years ago
