My family roots are in France, Holland, Germany and Portugal. I am such a "city" person I would not know poison ivy if it bit me : ) I truly wish I had stayed in a small town setting instead of thinking I was so grown and leaving for the big city : )<BR/>I am a small town girl at heart : )<BR/>from the hand stitching I love to do to the homey qualities in all that I do and want to do. You are such an inspiration to me, my Dear Mary. Your spirit, gentleness, kindness is everything I look to.<BR/>Thank you<BR/>carolea Bohemian Markethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155708452552265719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116097326831894082.post-4923762823186211822007-07-04T19:34:00.000-04:002007-07-04T19:34:00.000-04:00There was a feature on the news last week that the...There was a feature on the news last week that the poison ivy is especially bad this year and more caustic than usual! It is invasive and they really only had vague theories as to why it is so much worse. Just thought you might like to know that it isn't your imagination!Carol Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213599834164588707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116097326831894082.post-51428911843504599912007-07-04T13:23:00.000-04:002007-07-04T13:23:00.000-04:00Carole, The lawn you see in the bunny photos is un...Carole, The lawn you see in the bunny photos is under my HUGE oak tree. That short green stuff (by the poison ivy) is all violets. The taller stuff is some kind of flower that blooms in the spring. Oh your Mom sounds just like my Mom & Grandmother (how I miss them). We too had many dandelion salads (only the greens) in our day. We also had what I call mustard greens, they were a very dark green leafy plant that had yellow flowers on them, but if the flowers turned yellow the greens were to old to eat. You had to pick them before they bloomed. We would drive around with my parents to find farmers fields with these greens in them and stop and ask if we could pick their "weeds".. They thought we were crazy! My Mom would then soak them then par boil them & then fry them with olive oil & garlic..How we 4 children loved them! It was an Italian thing I guess...LOL..<BR/>Oh that bunny is so sweet.. he seems to be here a lot. He runs under my bushes. I try not to scare him. He loves eating my lawn. I do not put any chemicals on my lawn. <BR/>Thanks for the memories darling! <BR/>~Mary~ :-}a Pocket Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06486880189356560312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116097326831894082.post-84103121426065820522007-07-04T12:57:00.000-04:002007-07-04T12:57:00.000-04:00Mary Dear:He is a real cutie : )I love your lawn; ...Mary Dear:<BR/>He is a real cutie : )<BR/>I love your lawn; dicondra(?) It gave thought of my childhood lawn that my Mom, now (99) use to have me sit and cut out the dandelion plants; she was the original Mam of "Use everything. . .throw nothing away"; I would take in the dandelions and she would wash them (leaves and flowers) for salads and something else for good eats. <BR/>Your baby bunny sitting on your lovely cottage lawn took me way back in time : )<BR/>Thank you<BR/>Big Hugs <BR/>carolea Bohemian Markethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155708452552265719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5116097326831894082.post-32715856374838242012007-07-04T11:37:00.000-04:002007-07-04T11:37:00.000-04:00Well weren't you lucky that he sat and posed?!
