A great place from which to order your roses (Ashdown)
Comments (16)Didn't know anything about it or I would have gone. The meeting is tomorrow (Sunday) at 2:30 at the Norfolk Botanical gardens. You just tell them you are here for the rose society meeting and they let you in. They are having a novice exhibitors competition. I am not into that personally but it will be cool to see. I'd love to meet you! I will post contact info later when I find my newsletter. Sunni...See MoreNeed your help on which to order
Comments (4)Incense, Caerulea, lavender lady, maybe an edulis or 6.. Your in Florida? Then platyloba, quadrangularis.. Biflora, seemannii, victoria... Maybe get one of the passionflower books & pick the ones you want, then spend a couple years trying to get ahold of them. Or, get a couple & cross them- Make your own. Or maybe I'm just all ga-ga over a piece of fence to cover.. With 75+ varieties I don't have any more fence space left....See MoreYour opinion on which wet bar layout - pls, must order tomorrow!
Comments (5)Yes - you're probably right, kaseki. In fact, it wasn't originally spec'ed to have the dishwasher and that was an impulse floor model buy. Later on, I've sort of thought that it threw off everything (the ice maker was supposed to go there.) That said, based on your thinking, I have thought about what my priorities were. Well the first is less a priority than a preference - when we entertain, I *dread* the extra batch of dishes than can't fit in the dishwasher. I hate going to bed with dishes not yet attended to b/c they are worse in the morning. SO, that second dishwasher was a big splurge but something I know we'll use. The second thing taking up the space now, the double u-line I guess reflects the priority more? Here we've designated this bonus space to an area where we can keep all the beverages for regular life and entertaining. It didn't sit right to me that we would accomodate all wine (we are sort of light wine drinkers on our own, more when we have folks over,) and NO beer, mixers or non-alcoholic beverages available. They would either need to end up in a bucket of ice on the counter or people would be going into the kitchen fridge. SO, I guess giving up 12 inches of space was a tradeoff I would make - especially since, as you say, you can't really ever fit everything in a room like this. I have nearly 8 feet of cabinets on the top of this area, one bottom cabinet with a drawer, and another cabinet and bank of drawers on the other side. So, I guess that's sort of how I thought it through? My logic is probably flawed - and my worst habit is being indecisive and second-guessing myself, but hopefully I can live with this one! :-) Thanks for the thoughtful comment though - it made me think this through again....See MoreYou're favorite cocktail - T&T

I most often tend to drink my distilled spirits neat or with a little ice, I don't generally do mixed cocktails. However, once in a great while (especially during hot, hot weather) a vodka & grapefruit (must be fresh squeezed) with a splash of cranberry is both pretty and refreshing. Sort of a backwards Seabreeze, which is a vodka & cranberry with a splash of grapefruit (also very good). lynnalexandra, from my Boston's guide, Ramos Fizz Juice of 1/2 lemon one egg white 1 t powdered sugar 2 oz gin 1 T light cream 1/2 t triple sec Shake with ice and strain into highball glass oer two ice cubes. Fill with carbonated water and stir. At the restaurant where I worked for many years, we used orange flower water as a float on top. A nice, refreshing martini-glass cocktail is an old fashioned Gimlet. One oz of fresh lime juice, 1/12 oz gin and one t powdered sugar, shaken with ice and strained. I actually prefer to use a simple syrup instead of the powdered sugar to keep the drink crystal clear or, if I have no lime juice on hand, use Roses Lime and leave out the sugar....See MoreElizabeth
