My apologies to everyone who has Google Reader or some other reader tool. I've been playing with a new computer program that works great for organizing recipes, book lists, garden info, etc. I wanted to share with you what I've been doing - by showing you the pages I've done. But when I linked the pages to the blog, I think it allowed anyone looking at it to go in and help me out! As much as I love you guys, I really don't want you inside any of my computer programs! :)
I'll keep playing a bit and see if there's any way to show you - photos of the pages or whatever. The program is OneNote - I am liking it a lot. More to come - I hope~ :)

Hi Kris,
this is a new Hydrangea and I have one plant on order.
I have a lot of success with any Hydrangea plants, even the ones I purchased in stores for Easter.
They bloom and grow very nicely year after year.
I am not planting anything before May..pictures will be posted later.
Have fun with your computer program.
-Cheers.
-Cheers
Hi there! Love your blog. I'm not sure if you visited my blog, I don't think I've been to yours before. Spring is popping up like crazy in my neck of the desert, I'd love you to visit. Oh, and I've been looking for seeds for the bowling ball plant for years, can you "spare" some? Hee Hee!
Hi Kris,
I could read your previous post in Google reader but couldn't click on it to reach your blog. I totally understand why you don't want people accessing your blog. The program does sound great. I'm always trying to come up with a better way to organize my gazillion recipes..!
xo
Kris, I guess when I look closely I see it is not rebar, although I do like rebar too. I wonder if you know how long the hoop fence pieces where the bowling balls are pictured is. I would like to try that. I will keep you posted on the trials of this new garden.

Hi again Kris! First hope all is great with that very soon to be here baby! We had a wonderful thing happen this morning at our place, if you read all my posts when you visited you'll remember the pea hen who just appeared one day? Well, come see who came to join her!
One Note - I'll have to check that out. Hope all is going well, it's been a while since I dropped by.
Hi Kris!
I just read that Minneapolis is on the verge of another winter storm?!?!? (And I'm supposed to bring a bunch of Girl Scouts there this weekend too :O(
Are you doing anything to your plants that have sprouted up to protect them?
Where 'ya been? Haven't read anything from you lately.
Are you still out there, Kris? I am just checking in!
Hi Kris,
Just wanted to stop in again and say hi..
Hope all is well with you.
xo
Kris, where are you?
