Thursday Trios – I Love Gnomes

Posted on November 30, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…on time this week and early

On Monday, this week I went to the One of a Kind Show here in Toronto. There was so much to see and so many interesting people to talk with that we barely saw half the show. I may have to go back.

I love gnomes…garden gnomes, toy gnomes, Christmas gnomes, etc.. I recently purchased a knitting pattern for a gnome. If I ever get around to making one, I’ll post it here.

If you have any trios to share, I’d love to see them. Just copy my link and paste it into your post. This way I’ll get a pingback so I can find your post. Have fun!

New Flower (November 28, 2023) – Not a Christmas Cactus

Posted on November 29, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…did you know that there are Thanksgiving Cacti?

You can tell the difference from the shape of the greenery. This is definitely of the Thanksgiving variety.

Thursday Trios from Last Week

Posted on November 29, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…there’s always something that keeps me from posting

Last week I couldn’t upload my new photos. It had to do with a password problem that took days to resolve. On Friday I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens and was delighted to see so many roses in varying stages of development and decay.
