Why isn't my Blackberry Jam Cake in your gathering of recipes, Arlene? Just give me one good reason. Grumble #1 for nap. Grumble #2 for TLC. http://allthingsplants.com/ Art And Artists * Blue Gardens * Writers and Words Quote | Post #609791 (9)

Guess I'll go look for the recipe. We have had many from out of state over the years. . . . Texas, Arizona, North Dakota, Missouri, Wisconsin, Illinois. . . can't remember all of them.

If you don't know Moby and Dave . . . well . . . you gotta love them. They are so much fun. I wish I could share that pic of you with the light on your head where you were ready to go pilfer out of someone elses garden. DON'T give Moby where you live.

That's right! I stole your Dimention, didn't I? It told me it wanted to come live with me, so what else could I do? I'll try to behave, we wouldn't want to scare Sharon away. Where are we going, and why am I in this hand-basket? Quote | Post #613549 (19)
