10 days agoI'm with you Theresa - I've been working in my yard, too. We had so much rain for the first 20 days of May that it made the weeds that sprouted so abundantly a bit easier to pull. I added some new perrenials, but need a few more to my front yard. I divided iris (wrong time of year, but it worked into my schedule) so they won't bloom this year, but that's okay - the planter box they went into has been empty since 2016! The little pansies which were supposed to be annuals about 10 years ago just keep multiplying and spreading all over and I let them. They are quite determines, so why fight it when they are so cute?
I also managed to get our fence power washed and stained - both sides - between showers.
Right now I am trying to hire someone to remove a 30 year old juniper that I ABSOLUTELY hate and have for the entire time we have been in this house (29 years).
I got a quilt top pieced but need to order fabric for the backing and am sewing a new pirate costume for my granddaughter. She loves to play dress up and outgrew the one I made for her daddy when he was little! She wants a skirt this time instead of pants, so a skirt it will be!

LOOKING for: mamma mia's (west allis wi) homemade garlic bread
Comments (53)These breads turned out great but I don’t think I rolled them out thick enough and I did not let them rise. The whole dough process is very time consuming so if you want the express version, here it is: Mama Mia’s Garlic Bread Fast Version One loaf of Italian bread 2 sticks of butter Garlic salt. Preheat oven to 425. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Cut bread into 1-2 inch slices. Place slices in the oven directly on the center oven rack and toast for 5-7 minutes or barely golden brown. Take breads out of the oven and dunk them in butter and sprinkle garlic salt on both sides. I’ve made it this way for my family several times and they love it. Mama Mia’s garlic bread is toasted bread dunked in butter and covered in garlic salt. That’s it. Enjoy paisanos!...See MoreKohler Riverby 33" White - MIA
Comments (8)Yes, I did! I called around to a bunch of local plumbing supply and kitchen and bath showrooms. I just called every place that showed up on google maps. One place had one left in another location and through phone transfers I ended up getting one directly out of a Moore Supply warehouse in Dallas and it costs me less than the showroom quoted me. I've seen people on here start getting some Kohler sinks so I thought they were back in stock, but I guess not much. I did find some in California, but got lucky I didn't have to pay for that shipping. good luck!...See MoreBella Cera Casa Mia Quality??
Comments (2)IMO good laminate or vinyl plank both stand up better with large dogs than hardwood. I have 3 large dogs and have had good quality laminate in my whole main floor for 13 yrs with not one scratch. Our dogs are 60, 65 and 120 lbs . We have vinyl plak in the walkout because the dogs have free run dog yard with a doogie door so lots of wet feet and mud I sweep or vacuum at the end of the day and quick damp mop looks like new. Our laminate actully looks like slate even has a bit of texture like slate. In our old house we also had laminate but in wood look ,only the 2 lighter dogs but it stood very well....See MoreMia heart update!
Comments (39)Linda I am so sorry. It will be hard on you for a while but for now eat as much food, healthy or not, to keep your strength up and sleep. Those two things are most important as I suspect your husband would want you to have a full life after he was gone. Too many forget those two things and soon follow their loved one much sooner than the loved one would have wanted. Peace be with you....See More

Theresa, I love my gardens too, but it's getting harder every year to keep them up. My house is built into a hill, so one is constantly walking up and down steps. About 15 years ago, I went through my hosta obsession. I have about 150 varieties scattered all around my yard, which is mostly in the shade. I also have a perrenial garden just off our screen porch and sun room. Here are two photos from mid-June last year when it was in its spring glory.

9 days agoSome lovely gardens here ladies. Sue, maybe I should just rockscape and be done with it!
And Lois, so pretty. I did buy several new hostas for the front so I won’t need so many annuals. but they will take time to grow larger. A couple of years ago, I decided day
lilies were the way to go for the back gardens, . but again, slow going.
I do have one spot I really like, too bad it only lasts a few weeks. There are peonies behind the poppies. The wiegelia is in full bloom right now. Beautiful!
