Do love the textures and colors you chose. These will provide a nice welcome as guests approach. Mostly today I continued in the garden where I left off yesterday, cutting out plants which had become either moldy or mushy or both from the excessive rain. <br />I yearn for the first crisp fall day.<br />Linda in VirginiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4478201407511428968.post-20674439960195007962011-09-26T18:15:19.692-04:002011-09-26T18:15:19.692-04:00OK...OK...

The color combos here are gorgeous. And I've been wanting to try cabbage -- you've inspired me to get some for my winter pots on the deck. I got tired of maintaining the pots on our front steps and finally added flax and other perennials, which hardly even need water. It's wonderful! Also, I'm going to try linking to the flower party today.<br />CamilleThe Vintique Objecthttp://thevintiqueobject.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4478201407511428968.post-7084579897681630272011-09-26T12:09:49.070-04:002011-09-26T12:09:49.070-04:00Did I find Steve?
