I would have taken a picture of him with the gigantic candy cane, but he ate it....very quickly! Rachel (the new and improved Mrs. rachelc) If you never have you should. These things are fun and fun is good.

plantqueen Unregistered	I did get my package from Tina on Saturday. I went online from home on Saturday to post about it. I started to upload the pics to PB and I knew it would take a while so I went to take a shower and when I came back it still said....uploading 1 of 4 and was at 0% so I gave up and figured I would do it this morning. Give me a little bit here to get the pics uploaded! I loved everything Tina and so did Tristen!!! You did a wonderful job! I am very sorry I didn't get on here earlier to tell about it!

I'm glad you got it all and it looks like it all arrived in good shape. That cooky jar holder was made for me by another garden friend for a cookie exchange. I loved it but I don't like dustables. I'm happy it has a worthy home. I'm glad this was acceptable. ~Tina Drama Free Zone. What every gardener loves the most, Begins and ends in rich compost. (Tina)

Mine are up on hooks right next to the stove top. I try to think of them as nearly disposable, like a kitchen sponge. ~Tina Drama Free Zone.
