I can't believe it's already November and I still have a geranium bloom! It's in a pot & usually by this time, everything in my flower pots have passed on & I start looking for pansies & ornamental kale to replace them. A couple of weeks ago or so, when they said we were going to get a freeze that night, Don brought all our flower pots inside (up to that point, the geraniums had not bloomed in several weeks----I really thought it was the end for them, as far as blooming), but I got busy & forgot to take them back outside again for 3 days. I don't know if having them inside in a dark place (they were in my laundry room) might have "forced" them to bloom, like you do with bulb flowers? But anyway, all of a sudden, they had buds & the day I brought them back out into the sunlight, they bloomed! How cool is that!----------------------------------------------------

They have beautiful pansies out at TexScapes! I bought some, but they aren't blooming as well as I'd hoped; no rain, no cool weather.
Thanks for the plug! My blog has slowed down, I am so busy with the pup; always chewing something!
Thank you Patti, for your sweet comments & dropping by to see me!
I'm thankful for family, friends, faith, flowers, food, festivals, fables and fairytales!! And, don't get me started on the other letters of the alphabet! :)
Your contest is exciting!

Hey Patti,
I saw that you commented on my blog about my lovely retired greyhound Sheba. How sweet of you. I read it to Sheba and she was very proud. Whippets looks exactly like greyhounds, just a tad smaller. I love your blog and all the sites. I am in the process of setting up an ETSY store, I will let you kow when I open it.

I love geraniums! I'm hoping to have luck with some next spring.
