A friend thought my lizard was a frog, and before long she was gifting me with frogs for the garden. About that time, I would lose my cactus plants each summer (due to a zealous overwatering by a neighbor)so, having had a few frogs given to me, I started "planting" the frogs' butts on rocks in the garden to replace dead cacti! Of course, that started friends and family on a frog buying frenzy. Now I have frog gardens ;-)Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-20231570155500599152009-07-06T18:44:43.867-07:002009-07-06T18:44:43.867-07:00One summer, we were infested with frogs in Atlanta...One summer, we were infested with frogs in Atlanta. I remember coming home from a party and the sound of mating bullfrogs was all over. Then a bullfrog greeted us at the door and wouldn't let us get by. We stayed outside for a good half and hour staring down this bulging-eyed frog. Finally he got bored and leapt out of the way. Long story short, I see a frog, I just give them space.Kalena Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199232894763467920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-12930226645210449492009-07-06T14:18:13.446-07:002009-07-06T14:18:13.446-07:00Thank you!

It's ready to rise in less than five minutes. I love to bake bread that way, but I don't do it often in the summer, it's too hot here. My old Cuisenart processor died a couple of weeks ago (it was like 25 years old!)and I bought a cheaper one, so I'm not sure if it will handle the dough or not. I might have to drag out the big old bread machine again.<br /><br /><br /><b>Ribbit</b>, I LOVE cows. I have a story (true) that would turn you into a vegetarian....or at least a chikenarian.
