Re: Bummer weekend... sorta

Well, hope all is well with the delivery. Those little boogers seem to take their own sweet time. LOL!
Can't get excited about the Sauerkraut. Ick. But, I am excited because my replacement 'Jean's Unsurpassable' Camellia j. is now in residence here. A friend bought me one as a Christmas present years ago when I knew little or nothing and I managed to kill it by watering too much. The Garden Gate was able to find me one. It's covered with buds and is still in its pot right where I can pass by it. I'll plant it after it's done blooming so I can enjoy these up close and personal. Of course we got another one in that I fell in love with 'Mary Agnes Patin' coral colored blooms. For some reason one had opened. Stunning, but I can't afford it. It's in a 7 gal and is $100.00 If anyone runs across a small one let me know! :-D

Chilly--yesterday and today. Put Ms Fatma on a Tundra Airways flight this AM so she can witness DIL give birth to a granddaughter later this week. Cats already looking for her. Got an eye doctor appointment [routine] early in the AM.
On the cheery side, the Bishop's Crown peppers are up, so I'll transplant them into a big pot on the front patio tomorrow. And the sauerkraut appears to be done and ready to can, maybe tomorrow. I need to give it a taste test first because the canning heat will stop the fermentation. But it would be nice to have some as a side on T-Day.
