We are seeing some chilly weather here in our area..temps dipping down to frost tonight...brrr.

Seems like the cold winds have blown in a little bit early this year for us here in North Florida.

(shiver, shiver)

Covered a few plants, but didn't have enough towels, blankets for everything...so I hope that some of those plants are hardy ones.

The jade plant and the jatropha plant got covered, and a few others..and then a few small plants were brought in by the back door.

Crossing my fingers that what isn't covered are the tougher plants that can bounce back.

(note to self..buy some old blankets/sheets at Goodwill for plants)

Speaking of plants..let me tell you about this seed company I found out about..

D.Landreth Seed Company.

http://www.landrethseeds.com/

Do stop by the site and request a catalog..it is such a nice one...the catalog is like an art book nearly..lovely illustrations and nice history about the tulip and other plant bulbs.

They also are a great source for garlic seed bulbs.

Very nice heirloom varieties of flower bulbs and the garlic,seed potatoes, and more.

-------------------

I wanted to apologize to many of you for not having been by to visit...I will make a point to blog visit this week.

My sincere apologies. I have missed you all.

If you are a visitor to my blog and would like your blog added to my blog links..simply let me know and I will add it. I have added a few more sites this week to the blog rolls, and trying to get that updated as well.

So..if you pop by for a visit and want to exchange links leave me a note and I'll certainly add you to my friends list. One can never have too many friends you know...smiles.

Now that the weather has started getting colder I have got to get busy planning/thinking about Christmas..oi! it will be here before we know it!

Do you have a handcrafted goods site? or an etsy shop? Send me the link ..... and I'll try to stop by to browse your shops and also to share the info with others here on the blog..and..if you'd like your shop/handcrafts to be featured in an issue of Small Town Living..let me know and I'll see what we can do.

Ummm...as I hear the winds starting to blow some chilly air across the roof..I am comforted by a mug of warm Numi tea...a nice chai blend with hints of cinnamon..mmmm.yep..it's good tea.If you've never tried Numi tea before... check them out at http://www.numitea.com/
