Awwww. Catnap seed.

I've done quite a bit of shopping today so make sure to check your dibs.

I'm literally feeling fat, lol. I got every single one of my top 30 or so items and 90% of everything else I wanted, too. Now I'm lazily picking off stuff I know I'm not going to be able to work off (i.e. plant) within the next couple of years. Somebody stop me, this is getting gross, lol!

On another note, I sold very nearly three times as many seeds as I've bought, so THANK YOU ALL for taking all these off my hands while replacing them with so many wonderful new pretties and veggies!

Another like for this one-day swap, thing, too, Libby. I did have a couple very brief hiccups with the page timing out probably due to all the activity, but none stopped me from getting my most wanteds. I do think we could have a more severe crash if we had a much bigger party of swappers with 100+ tickets apiece...

Wow. There are still a lot of good seeds left. I just came across some that I had somehow missed the first time around and were amazingly still available.

Leslie - LoL! Catnap seed--I love it!

Kelli - you're making me want to go back in and dib on more. I have only sold a few more than I purchased, and I promised myself I wasn't going to dib on many this time around. But those pictures...so pretty....trying to resist dibbing on more........and failing D'Oh!

Taquiyyah - I had some hiccups, too. It will be curious to see what happens when there are more people in future lightning rounds. I had a max on this one of 35 people, so that probably wouldn't have been too bad if we maxed out, but I know there were probably about 8-10 times where I clicked on something and it gave me a message saying that I had already claimed dibs on it, even though I hadn't. I had to go back in later to claim those seeds. Fortunately, I don't think I lost out on any of them despite the delay (probably about 10 minutes?) between when I tried dibbing the first time and when I went back in to clam those that hadn't actually gone through.

Maybe one thing we learned from this first zap swap is to keep the number of participants lower than the regular ones. Please make sure and tell us first when you organize another one. Hilarious!

I sold 60 more than I bought. Today it's been hard to find anything to use my tickets on. I was able to offer lots of packets of many of the varieties because they came with so many seeds.

Anyone else out there having the Arctic blast that we are having in Boston? This is a photo of my thermometer a little while ago. Yes, that says -2.1 degrees! This is usually 5 degrees warmer than the actual outdoor temp. due to where the air probe is placed outdoors....brrrrr.....
