Sheela, my dish is kind of a hearty soup / porridge, but vegetarian, with kale, sweet potatoes, rice. I combine the Sumatran curry with rice porridge of Sulawesi /Celebes. I can change it to just the kale curry, then I should also bring rice to eat it with. That is what I would like to introduce, because it is one of my favorite Indonesian dish. It is a little bit spicy---. Originally it is made with leaves of the cassava plant. Now in Indonesia they are also making it with kale, that they planted because it is being advertised as super healthy! Then you can bring your hearty soup dish with meat!

Jill, today is the 8th, is it too late to order Trillium for me? White is fine, or any color!

Got your tree-mail, Francne. I didn't get a chance to finalize my order yet, so there's still time for anybody else to jump in also. They have 15 rose scented geranium vareties, 9 species of trillium, so be specific please. Green Grin!

I really do not know what I want. Too complicated, maybe another time.

Thanks Francine, you're too kind, but I would like you to make what you want, your first dish is fine and I can revise mine, there's plenty of time for me to figure out what to bring after I see the list of who's bringing what, I'll try to fill in the gap with what is needed.

not sure what I'll bring yet, looks like we could use pasta salad or fruit... I'll check the list the week before and fill some perceived gap!

Sally, no your dumplings don't get old! Neither do Terr's deviled eggs. Whistling

Potted some mother of thousands volunteers and a persicaria that was growing n the wrong spot, will add them to the list.

I'm sorry you can't switch shifts with somebody, Sally, but this time of year might be tough with graduation events and Memorial Day family plans.

Sally, if you want any plants from the tradelist, I'll be your "plant fairy."

I just added 1 more of each lotus to the tradelist.

“Little girl, why are you doing this? You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!” After a few moments thought, she bent down, picked up another starfish & hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied, “Well, I made a difference to that one!” Be the change you wish to see in the world. http://www.stillsthatspeak.com...
