Zuzu - read your blog.. thank you for it being so informative to new people like me! You should post it & sticky it so us who are new(er) to ordering & gardening will know what to expect from what companies. Smiling Word of Mouth = Best source of info.

Make my personal blog a sticky? OMG, Toni, that would be so arrogant! Hilarious! Those are just my personal opinions and observations and shouldn't be used as a firm guide by anyone. Besides, leaving them somewhat hidden away in my blog absolves Trish and Dave of any legal liability they might potentially face for my criticism of certain businesses.

Then put a disclaimer that these are your own personal words, feelings, impressions, etc and ATP has no correlations or responsibility of your words. That way we can *see* that it's *your* words & pictures and we can take them for the value that they present to us. Kinda like how in almost every single DVD movie out there that has a commentary section there's always the disclaimer in the beginning that states that "X" studio takes no responsibility of whatever comments or impressions the following commentary may give, blahblahblah.

And *I* find your information way more valuable than what I can find on the business' website. For instance (not trying to hijack this thread, sorry), check out this site here:

http://www.alphaila.com/articl...

It shows reality vs. false advertising, which what I feel most advertisements are: false.

Even with a disclaimer it would still be too arrogant. I'm not against people reading the blog, just against making it a sticky. Smiling

Going to that link made me hungry for tacos. Green Grin!

Thanks so much for the greeting and for the lovely photo. As for the best ever, I think those days are gone forever. Crying I think my 19th must have been my best because that age sticks in my mind. If someone were to wake me from a deep sleep and demand to know my age, I'd say I was 19. It must have been a good year. Green Grin!
