A rare sunday postThe party last night was great fun. Thank you (e:Matthew) for inviting us.
My gardens are starting to bloom and Mother Nature is persistent.
I went out this morning and cut open the landscaping fabric to let the bulbs through. The landscaping fabric was necessary to try to combat the Bishop's Weed that has been overrunning the garden, but I didn't know where all the bulbs were planted but I'm finding out now.
(e:Matthew) let me know what flowers or plants or veggies you're looking for. I'm always working in my gardens in the summer. If I can ever figure out how to split my poppies, I'd be happy to share them with you.

(e:metalpeter) I was wearing an orange hooded sweater and yes I saw myself in some of your pictures.
(e:tinypliny) the black fabric is landscaping fabric that I had to cut away. The pics were uploaded in reverse order. The bulbs were trying to poke through so I helped them out.
(e:paul) yes a dinner party soon would be fun. We always enjoy spending time with you guys.

I have to admit I'm not sure who you are in person, that being said hope it was a good time. You may have gotten on Camera. There where some people who I know didn't like (e:drew) and I'm sure some others as well.

What is that black fabric covering the shoots? Is that landscaping fabric? Have the shoots grown through it or did you wrap the shoots in it and then cut holes for them to grow through? How are they going to get sunlight if you wrapped them?

Lost Dog - FOUND!!! :-)A personal friend of mine has a friend who lost her dog yesterday. Please keep a look out for him. The owners name is Carima and her contact information is listed in this post.
His name is "Copper" and he was rescued a few months ago from out of state.
He was seen yesterday at Forest Lawn Cemetery in the morning and then near Sheridan and Parker in Tonawanda in the afternoon. He may have kept heading toward Lockport or other suburbs.
Copper is a Basenji. This breed of dog doesn't have a typical bark, it is more like a funny sounding yodel.
The link is to wikipedi showing a picture of the breed.
Carima's email is Carima@p22.com and she has a blackberry with her all the time. If you hear of anyone seeing him, PLEASE let her know. Her boys are heartbroken without Copper.
All the police and shelter's have been contacted and there hasn't been any site of him yet today.

WeekendThis nice weather has finally drawn me out of my house!
Friday night, myself and the Mr. walked down to visit with our neighbors and have a couple drinks and just socialize a bit.
Saturday afternoon I walked over to the newly opened visitors center at the Darwin Martin House. It's a nice space.
Saturday night I met up with some friends and we went to Buffalo Gay Bingo. As usual I did not win but I had a lot of fun.
While standing in line to get in, the oddest woman decides to talk to us. She tells us all about how her son has the super hot new bf and she wants him to send her pics of the hot new bf and that her granddaughter doesn't like to wear underpants because she gets wedgies since she doesn't have a booty.
whoa TMI lady! Yes, all of that information came out in one long sentence.
Guessing my freak magnet is super strong for 2009.
Sunday night I made homemade poptarts. This really comes down to me taking Wegmans pie crusts and rolling them out a bit and then cutting rectangular pieces and filling those pieces with frozen blueberries mixed with sugar.
Next time, I am going to use some of my homemade jam as the blueberries were big and kinda lumpy and at least one pie suffered a a bit of a filling explosion.

My second batch came out better than the first and would fit in a toaster. I used less filling so things did not explode.
(e:)(tinypliny) LOL

No wonder I am SO attracted to you! ;-)
"Filling explosion".
I need to try this! I agree with (e:heidi). What a nifty idea!

A bit of SpringCategory: gardening
I have it!
I'm sorry to say I cannot share it yet since it is in the form of a couple sprouted seeds that are carefully being tended to in our spare bedroom aka the plant nursery.
Much to my surprise when I checked on my "babies" last night, a few of my Cosmos seeds had sprouted already.

Merge is :::link:::
Dinner 5-10 p.m. daily I think
That was typed in a tearing hurry. So is this!
^know
(e:Chico) - do you when they close??
I want to go to there!
Went to Merge, the new veg-friendly joint on Delaware near Edward, and it was (soooo good and) so cheap that we didn't even make it to $20.09 per person ordering off the menu (tea, entree, side, and dessert). But there are tons of great restaurants on the list... sounds really fantastic. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention!!
Yes, many, many thanks... I'm going to try to talk husband into taking advantage of this TONIGHT!
I know - people in my 14-person office were making reservations at Hutch's, Left Bank, Tempo, Laa Tee Da and other fancy high end places left right and centre.
Yeah, I still want to go home and cook. :D
Thank you for letting us know!
