It must be cold there. My kale is still green. . .no color change yet. We've only gotten a few cool days so far. That is a striking kale. Beautiful. Poor hostas, I bet they were once very beautiful. I'll be looking out for something to use in the garden. Thanks for starting this Donna.

Here's a pic of my planter with kale until I can put something together.

Terri, I don't know, I'm starting to run out of words to describe your arrangements. They are gorgeous. WOWIE. Love the wintergreens and that second arrangement is to die for. I absolutely LOVE the curvy lines going vertically and horizontally. Great use of the little flowers to blanket the gerbers. Like a platform for the gerbers. I also like 3 flower groupings. Wonderful combinations. Pretty pretty pretty. Definitely one of my favorites for your portfolio.

Yes, Donna, where are you?

I enjoyed the baskets Donna. With the light cold setting in down here, I'm feeling a little under the weather myself.

Thanks, Terri & Karma for caring! I had a rough time with the beta blocker that the doctor gave. I could hardly function. I had a terrible heavy pressure on my chest and was out of breath all the time. It was hard getting to work. I was going crazy and I finally got my heart specialist to listen to me and he finally changed it to a different one. What a difference!!!!

I'm back!!!!!

Hugs, Donna
