Squirrels and chipmunks are the culprits at our house. We've been using the repellant spray. You have to spray it after every rain and it stinks until it dries. It's been working great for the deer and squirrels and so-so for the chipmunks. I'm pretty sure most critters like Lily bulbs. Maybe it'll work for the humans too.

That one is a Columbine (Aquilegia). Pretty color!

The last one looks like a scented geranium (pelargonium).

She's adorable!!!

We've made them out of leftover stuffing and topped them with turkey gravy. Yum.

hope her kids are doing ok

Me too. I didn't know her except on here, but she pops into my mind often.

Does it look like this?

Could be Goutweed - another name is Ground Elder.

What time does the sale start?

If it shows up in a different place every year then it is probably a reseeding annual.  How tall?  Flowers?

 

We will have Borage (beautiful little bright blue flowers) at the BUDS plant sale from Wednesday till Saturday at Charlie's Alternators near Kurt Johnson's Auto Sales.

 

I shared this photo and name with my friend.  She said that this could be the one!  

Awesome! It's a pretty neat plant. I love mine.

Could it be a Clove Currant?  Mine looks a lot like your picture.

So sad. Prayers for her family and her sweet children. Thanks jmbeck for letting us know. RIP Shmoopie.

Poor little pup - I hope she's doing better!

How far back in time are we allowed to go? 

As far as you'd like.

I'm sorry for your loss. Our fur babies are definitely part of the family. May your grief be lessened by the wonderful memories you have.

Congratulations! Nice pic!!

Well I just wanted to let everyone know that on Wednesday Chewy is going to the vet for the last time. He is in pretty bad shape and the meds have stopped working

So sorry to hear this. It's a hard decision to come to, but I agree it's for the best when they're suffering. Please know we're thinking of you and Chewy.

Have you ever gotten on Pinterest? If you search for "clay paw prints" you can get some great ideas on keepsakes to honor your pets. I've done my cat's paw and it turned out really nice. You could do a paw and then add a fingerprint from each of the kids. The clay is about $2 and bakes quick. That way you could have something to remember him by and the kids could help with the process.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate it. Still kinda shocked right now.

I bet you are shocked. This is so sad - they're part of our families. Thanks for letting us know. Most of us don't know each other - but we still care. Give him a hug from all of us.

Those are beautiful!!

I add quick cooking oats, milk, egg, cheddar cheese and Worcestershire sauce (we call it rooster) and then top it with a mix of ketchup, brown sugar and mustard. Love it left over in a fried meatloaf sandwich.

Such a beautiful dog. So sorry for your loss.

What kind of tomatoes are best for picking and eating right out of the garden or for salads?  

Is it a wildflower?  It could be Steeplebush - which is a wild Spiraea (tomentosa).  But - it's hard to tell from a pic.  

RIP my little shadow, nap buddy and protector.  I sure am gonna miss you...

 

:sad:

I'm sorry for your loss.  It's so hard because they become part of the family.
