I wish I were so inclined. In all of my free time I just want to be in the studio. I'm not very well balanced! :-) But, I absolutely love the smell of boxwood! A lot of people don't. I was at someone's historic home once and I commented that I loved the smell of their boxwood and she said, "Oh, I thought it was cat pee I was smelling!"Barbara Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09489926298058491835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8138379892346603774.post-63803370668929732152010-04-11T22:46:46.345+02:002010-04-11T22:46:46.345+02:00Renate,

I know, they are almost impossible to kill, but he did it :( It's cloudy and gray here in California. It's supposed to rain. I can't complain too much though, since we have had several days of sunny weather.Doreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547061196358823744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8138379892346603774.post-30461477107344303472010-04-11T16:58:25.505+02:002010-04-11T16:58:25.505+02:00Lustig - ich war heut auch auf dem Flohmarkt.
