We used to dry gourds, hollow them out and carry them as water flasks for centuries. We didn't usually paint them, though. I like to eat the Chinese cabbage too. Yours look fresh and delicious!

It has snowed for the best part of 4 days here and I bet we have over a foot of fluffy pristine snow. It sure is pretty right now since I can't remember when we have had this much snow. Since it is nearly 40 degrees here on the coast it will not stay long so my window scene is awesome right now.<br /><br />So sorry the veggies Jean Merrimanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10135474696468199060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-37231502087980577192010-01-20T09:26:06.995-06:002010-01-20T09:26:06.995-06:00I must plant something.I must plant something.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-78935128990383292332010-01-20T09:12:23.258-06:002010-01-20T09:12:23.258-06:00WOW!!1 Tina....

Here the earliest I might even think about the veggie garden is March, and usually it's much later than that before I can really work the ground. I don't start seedlings for the vegetable garden either; the tomato and pepper plants I can buy at the garden center do so much better for me than anything I'veRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-91712172945476282162010-01-20T08:39:57.256-06:002010-01-20T08:39:57.256-06:00Good morning everyone!
