Parigi, o cara...so sad. No, I have not sung the role, just an aria and that duet from it. <br /><br />Katie - thank you, I did not.<br /><br />Helen, this betwixt season here and there has some similarities, especially in the air.<br /><br />peppergrass - yes, that has been my 2011 experience of avocados. I should look into it. Maybe it is the year of the great avo blight? And they are so expensive. Over $2 each. The Alpine strawberries closely resemble the real thing, which I have seen and tasted growing at altitude in Switzerland. I do not remember the name of this cultivar, unfortunately. Jim Glover grew them on the North Fork of LI. They are very soft and delicate when ripe, very scented, and slightly tart with the sweetness.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-34376904416604413312011-09-24T07:51:50.094-04:002011-09-24T07:51:50.094-04:00I would love to eat a good avocado - haven't h...I would love to eat a good avocado - haven't had one this year.

I need to find something new to do with chicken. <br /><br />Those alpine strawberries are bizarre - I've never seen the likes of them. Are they wild or did you plant them?<br /><br />I love September!!

I dreamed I was in Le Nozze di Figaro except I was singing the second Queen of the Night aria. Oops. I like the autumn clematis, now. It's just very funny that it is doing so much better since its near--death experience. It needed to be pruned and I was too stupid to realize that...<br /><br />jelli - Gosh, sounds wonderful. Vanilla. Maybe I need another clematis.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17086277483606295046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-16143990824097431932011-09-18T11:09:31.419-04:002011-09-18T11:09:31.419-04:00My clematis 'Mayleen' has behaved in much ...My clematis 'Mayleen' has behaved in much the same way.
