Thanks Burtine!

Comment by Burtine Kendall yesterday

Debbie - I forgot you asked where I got the Meyers lemon.  I buy the tea at Safeway but the zest I found at Williams-Sonata.  They have a wonderful selection of things not found in other stores in our area. 

We don't have any garden area either in our complex but I do put herbs, tumbler tomatoes and flowers in containers too Shannon. 

Anyone interested in the efforts to stop Monsanto from poisoning more of our foods - Google - Take Back Our Food - The march against Monsanto.  I also have an interesting article on the plan to use Agent Orange against the super bugs the farmers are now battling.

will try the honey idea :o)

apparently it metabolizes differently from sugar. i no longer tolerate sugar. i guess my body reacts badly as i virtually eliminated it some time ago.looking forward to the quilt!! i have plans for it. i would not attempt a dresden on my own so this is my vicarious attempt LOL. Agnes I hope the rain ends soon so you can get to your sitting area with a book or some handwork. I love to sit on my front veranda with puppy and do some knitting or reading and watch the world go by. a fair bit of foot traffic heading to the plaza down the street and everyone wants to say hello to my furry friend. i love it!

For everyone's benefit, Shannon has committed to the quilt top so it will be going east.

When I say a bit of honey, generally less than a teaspoonful for a whole pot of tea. It's enough to take the edge of the acid but really not enough to sweeten it. 

Shannon--No balconies on our building. We do have a siting area near a few large trees and a few flower beds. We live just up the street from a fire station so I am generally glad to keep my windows shut and not hear the constant wailing.

I finally got the purple squares all squared up- perhaps I will get the binding pressed later today. It has been a full weekend- we are at my parents currently but will head home around lunch time I think. I did many of the things done on my list so that was good.

Agnes your baby quilt is lovely- if you still have no takers, I know Shannon was interested- let me know and I would be willing to take it off your hands if she decides not to -

Congratulations on your run Debbie- you and your girl did great..

Off to have a late breakfast....

Agnes: I would be the naggy LOL. I also like the sound of the iced tea. I love iced tea but do not want sugar or sweeteners. i like tart so it might be sweet enough for me as is.Agnes I will pm you about the baby quilt. Debbie congrats. I could run that distance in my dreams LOL. it is hot and humid here after a cold wet April. hello summer!! i am going to paint the metal chair on my veranda red and add lots of colour to my pots. being in a townhouse i am limited as to gardening but love my pots. they really cheer up the entryway. Agnes do you have a balcony? i used to love balcony sitting in the good weather.

Burtine--There are so many different tea lines. I just assumed you had a different line. Before I buy any Stash tea I read the little description to see if it would appeal to me. Names can be deceiving. Stash is my favorite brand though another tea I really like is Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice, strong cinnamon. Thank you for the comment on the quilt.
