Leaf Problem I've Never Seen Before - Please Help!!! (Pics)
Comments (10)I see similar leaves every year and do not know what causes them. My plants seem to get affected after a sharp drop in temperature after some very hot days. They always continue to grow and produce. The weird leaves may only last for 1 or 2 branches then return to normal. As the deformed leaves grow in size they often get more and more normal looking. Acid rain? Air polution? Herbicide drift? I don't know but I think you will still get tomatoes, at least I did for the last 3 years with plants that developed leaves like the ones you posted....See MoreNow I've seen everything
Comments (6)I kicked myself after posting because it really is hard to believe unless you have seen birds and other animals interact with each other. I first noticed this type of activity when I looked on a tree by one of my bird feeders and saw dove, dove, small hawk, dove. A What? reaction set in. Living in the part of the midwest I do the most common thing you see is birds suddenly diving for the bushes. On a clear day you will see at least two hawks hunting. On a overcast or rainy day you need to take shelter because you will have a heavy rainstorm with hail or very high wind with driving rain. Watching wildlife and how they interact really helps you learn about peoples interactions. If anyone notices or has additional things that they have heard of I for one would be happy to hear of them....See MoreA few 'toys' I've bot recently
Comments (14)So good to hear from you, too, Luckygal! And, wow, you sure did good for 1 day of GS'ing! sounds like a lovely camping trip...always enjoy being by a lake, too! And such wonderful dish bargains! I'm going to post a pic here from GJ that you might enjoy...that I saved in my future projects album...someday, I may find the right statue to try one of these and collect enough seashells...don't find them often here in the corn & bean fields! LOL! I LOVE your summer/beach vignette...that painting is what makes it come alive...I can hear the ocean! Love how you "nested" that large seashell on top of the vase...used so many textural items in the vignette & adding the candle! BEAUTIFUL! TFS!

Comments (110)I always taste test one grape. I am testing for firmness. I've had too many times when I bought grapes and when I get home, I find out that they are soft (not fresh). That is the fault of the store, so I do not feel guilty about eating one before I buy. As for cut fruit, I would never buy a cut watermelon or any other cut fruit because of dirty knives and I don't want someone's hands all over it. Also, I only buy USA fruit (except for bananas). That means no grapes from Chile, etc. In winter I wanted to buy an orange and they were from South Africa. South Africa! With California and Florida growing oranges, I have to buy an orange from South Africa? I actually looked up on Google the distance from where I live to South Africa and it is almost 8000 miles. I complained to the manager and he said that the store buyers try to get the best deal for the shopper. Wrong. They are getting the best deal for themselves. I'm not crazy about produce from Mexico, but I've resigned myself to that, unless I can avoid it. For example, tomatoes from Mexico. I would never buy the onions from Peru. And absolutely no garlic from China. I bought some frozen strawberries and when I got home I found out that they were from Egypt. Egypt! Come on! Those went straight down the garbage disposal. By the way, I shop at a regular grocery store---Stop and Shop....See MoreIris S (SC, Zone 7b)
