away with the long extension hose might as well get those cobwebs too when all of a sudden i got too close to this and it sucked the rest of the roll right up about a third of a roll as i stood there amazed and horrified while i watched and thought to myself turn it off turn it off what have you done so the question is how long does it take for a dyson turbo vacuum to suck up a third of a roll of

explorers in the 17th century from argentina and chile there it was grown for its fabulous lemony oil that was used in perfume and beverages until cheaper lemon grass oil replaced it aloysia triphylla is named after maria louisa the princess of parma and wife of king carlos iv king of spain and it has whorls of three tri leaves phylla it is commonly used by europeans to flavor fruit based drinks fruit salad dressings fish soups marinades puddings jams and desserts it does not tend to lose its flavor during cooking it pairs well with fruits vanilla and seafood dishes you can use lemon verbena in place of lemon zest in recipes virtually any fruit salad can be enhanced with its finely chopped leaves lemon verbena makes one of the best beverage teas especially when blended with mint it can also be used to brighten the taste of fish poultry veggie marinades stuffing salad dressing jellies and vinegar finely crumbled dried leaves can be added to the batters of carrot banana or zucchini bread try adding some to cooked rice just before serving my lemon verbena is the one thing i can count on to grow wonderfully in my garden no matter what the georgia weather is like during the summer last year i dried it and put it in small containers to give as christmas gifts this year i m doing the same i already have a gallon baggie full not only that but this morning i cracked open the bottle of vodka that jack bought for me yesterday no not for breakfast and started a wonderful lemon liquor you take half a cup of leaves about two large and maybe one small stem s worth chop them and add four cups of vodka i have two batches going now they brew for 2 weeks you shake them occasionally and you then add 2 cups of sugar shake and dissolve and let sit at least another two weeks then you strain and have a tasty and quite potent lemon liquor i m going to order some cute one cup bottles and i ll have eight christmas gifts well make that seven i have to keep one for us and by the way a 1 75l bottle smirnoff grab handle size yields right at 8 cups of vodka and you can bury six leaves in a cup of sugar and have a wonderful lemon sugar in a couple of weeks to put in your tea or use in baking bet it would be great sprinkled on top of sugar cookies i have a four cup container going and again the lemon sugar put into small containers like a salt shaker maybe would make great christmas gifts can t get much easier than that the biggest bonus is that when you re chopping or using lemon verbena leaves your whole kitchen smells really good oh and try a few branches in a flower arrangement on your dining table when you have company not only are they beautiful but also have a fresh lemon aroma untie a ribbon in your life you might find an adventure posted by unknown at 10 35

like reading a snippet of a novel just enough to get you interested with no way of knowing how the story turns out i found this letter in a box of ephemera at the flea market many years ago here it is verbatim commas and run on sentences galore enjoy feb y 9 1912 my darling wife your dear letter received this morning at 7 30 a m i was pleased to hear from you so soon as i am alone tonight will spend my time writing letters barry has gone up on n 14th st to see some one don t know who but rather think it is a woman dear lillian barry i went to the new multinomah hotel last night to see the place it is certainly a swell place wish i could have paraded in with you on my arm just as i see the swells do last night the women nearly all had real low necked dresses showing their busts while the men were all dressed in black dress suits with white vests the dinner cost 2 50 per plate so barry i did not stay for it there were flowers galore music in 2 or 3 different places in the lobby tis the swellest hotel i was ever in or ever saw in my life honey it made me feel blue to see other men there with their wives sweet hearts when mine was so far away so i barry left there at 7 30 p m you sweet little woman i would give a month s salary now if you were here so i could hug kiss you as of yore hope sister will come out with you then we will have a good time bring the graphaphone etc with

will take a fall out of her if i catch her in my room gee won t she squeal boy darling that picture which was in your letter is a good one will keep it near my heart as for the card enclosed hustling for business will say that it truly represents one of the male genii in pursuit of something which every male loves i had some fun with that card showing it to the boys at the court house lou smith said he never once thought that i was inclined that way so i told him to try me with some pretty plump maiden see if she would not develop a watermelon dear sister thinks no doubt that i am a bad pill

exactly looking forward to the nearly three hour drive although it s beautiful going up i575 and hwy 5 through north georgia into the mountains it can also be mind numbingly boring if you re by yourself much to my surprise the roadsides and often the median from atlanta all the way up to just past blue ridge where i turn off were filled to the brim with one of my most favorite flowers queen anne s lace imagine mile after mile of ethereal white flowers sometimes looking like snow there were so many of them sometimes with a wide patch of black eyed susans intermingled with them it was simply breath taking and me without a pair of scissors although it may be against the law to cut wildflowers in georgia i ll have to look that one up although many refer to queen anne s lace as a noxious weed i absolutely prefer to call it a wildflower it is indigenous to europe but traveled to the united states in the colonial era and has taken a foothold in nearly all the states botanical name daucus carota common name wild carrot its subspecies sativa is the common edible carrot physical characteristics daucus carota is a biennial plant with small white flowers that form an umbrella like head with a hairy stem and leaves that resemble ferns plant properties various parts are used as a diuretic and laxative and for menstrual problems indigestion gout and edema cultivation and harvest daucus thrives in well drained alkaline soil in sun or slight shade the entire plant is harvested in the summer if using the roots for food they should be picked when young in the spring seeds are gathered in the fall there are several legends associated with it one is that queen anne of england pricked her finger while making lace and stained it with blood this refers to the slight reddish purple hue in the middle of each small floret contained within the flower head the flower tops retain their lacy appearance when pressed and can be used on greeting cards scrapbooking and other paper crafts they make a beautiful addition to a wildflower wedding bouquet but loo...
