Duck is a wonderful substitute. Messy to cook, but so tasty.

It took 22 months to post 10,000, I wonder if we will hit 20,000 In September 2018?

My Garden and a warm fall (more weeds) have kept me busier than usual so I have been absent for awhile from the chatting but you all have not been far from my mind. Sometimes when I am out in my garden I think about the forum as I remember bits of wisdom here and there I learned from folks out on this forum. Anyway, I wanted to wish everyone a nice Thanksgiving break and especially to let you know..... Winterberry has their 2017 Intros on their website.

Happy and belated Thanks Giving everyone! I've been busy judging the photos in the NGA photo contest and missed it. We don't celebrate Thanks Giving in Australia but we have started having the Black Friday sales which I am enjoying Big Grin .

Thanks for asking Robin. Unfortunately he died yesterday. Scully and I both keep expecting him to show up still. He had a rough and very short life but went peacefully.
