The critters eat my crocuses (thank goodness I posted on facebook, since that was the only twenty-four hours they were up!) and grape hyacinth, even though they're not supposed to. But they don't eat any of my alliums, although I don't have those this year, FAIL, and last year I tried daffodils and irises, both of which grew to fruition. So more of those next fall. But right now, there's nothing. Which, okay, yes, snow.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Mmm, Methos. I'll have to see if Hulu still has all the eps up.
My iris and dogwood are in bloom, but, well, Georgia.
Things are starting to bloom here, but... there's snow today and a freeze warning for this weekend.
We're getting toward the end of daffodils and forsythia here (NC), but my cranesbill geranium has buds on it and the redbud is blooming like crazy.
I know we'll get a series of 80-90F days in a week or so, so I'm restraining myself from buying pansies for my front planters. I just have to wait until mid-April for the torenia, and that'll look good all the way to the end of fall.
Yesterday I saw what I think may be daffodils starting to form buds. I can see buds starting on trees, too.
Now if we'd just get some shirtsleeve weather I'd be good....

Good stuff!
Hookers and blow, y'all!
Seems an appropriate greeting for a Friday.
Just saw the recommendation of Elizabeth Taylor movies. I have to add Suddenly Last Summer. A film version of a Tennessee Williams play starring Taylor, Katharine Hepburn, and Montgomery Clift. So, movie magic even if the story is very, very badly dated. (On the other hand, it's really much more Hepburn's movie than Taylor's or Clift's.)
