But this is no rose....

Still, I can't help but think of roses when these bright and cheery camellia blooms lighten the garden....so very much during these drab, cold and dreary days of late fall.

Everyone have a fabulous Thanksgiving and take time to really appreciate the little things in life....in the garden.

  12. Hi Mom, Good morning! We are going to Vonna's (Christine too) so I'm not cooking. No turkeys here this year probably not even for Christmas. Mr. Fix-it won a country ham so I suppose I might cook that. The next time I do cook a turkey it will be the paper bag method though-I loved that turkey. You have a good one too. I hope Bri makes it down and all the family is there. So glad Dawn is out of the hospital!
