Day lilies here are all over. I bought my first to try last year, and doing well. My neighbors have lots, and we have a screen front porch, so sitting out there last week, it was all I could smell. My husband thought me silly, as all that came from my mouth was, mmmmmm!! |

I'm actually not that surprised about your cactus Baldur. My grandma brought a cactus back from Arizona in her suitcase (quite illegal - my grandma is a customs thrill seeker!) and proceeded to plant it in her garden in Darlingford Manitoba. It thrived despite the 5 feet of snow piled on it pretty much every winter. Wonders never cease! |

Baldur still lives! The wound is still quite gross, but rather less gross than yesterday. |

This morning after emptying the bed of my pick-up truck of it's load of horse manure Baldur went to work on a project in his garage. |

I bought a small wooden plaque at the craft store and stained it a dark brown color, |

Now when the bark stops sizzling and the clouds of stench recede Baldur will use his hot-melt glue gun and attach it to the plaque |

Well the planter is now assembled and hanging above the stairwell in the foyer at Chez Baldur. It still needs some tinkering though. |

I'm intrigued by this planter. What do you have to catch the water that drains off so it doesn't drench your foyer floor? |

Dragon, I never water it in the foyer. The fern gets taken outside or put into the shower where it remains until the dripping stops. Baldur only waters it once a week so this is not a huge issue. |

Aaah, I see. That makes sense, and save you from having to add an unsightly water catching device to such a natural seeming planter. I really must see Chez Baldur sometime. Sounds like a facinating place to visit! |

At times the living room is ablaze with candles. |

Other than in the blistering heat of summer Baldur endeavors to have at least a small blaze going in the fireplace when guests are expected. |

I had a uncle who married a woman from Ireland, and visits to their house was always my favorite! They had eleven children, and lived in a Irish neighborhood called the "Bloody Fifth". |

My house does not have a parlor, though I have two special areas to sit. I hate going to some ones house and there it is in the living room, the TV, and worse, it's on!! Years ago, if you visited some one, they would gladly turn it off, when you arrived!! Homes need a special place for our visitors, and a parlor, seems so right!! |
