April 18, 2012 -- a handful of flowers

This is one of those days when I just picked a handfull of flowers and dropped them directly into a vase. (I did take a minute to choose a vase of the right size.) The picking started when I inadvertently snapped off a good pansy flower while deadheading some spent ones. That flower drove everything else I picked--first some yellow mustard flowers, then some wild blue forget-me-nots, then a stem of purple of Ajuga, a couple of lavendar Chinese temple bells, and a purplish leaf. I can't remember the name of the plant with the purplish leaf. It's a very aromatic Vietnamese herb, begins with an H, and is a bit invasive. Help anyone? I know I once called it "Hootennany plant" to help myself remember it's botanical name, but now all I can remember is "Hootennany plant"!

    Does гunning a ωеll-estаblished blog such as youгs
    require a large amount of woгκ? I am brand new
    to running a blog however I do write in my journal on a daily
    basis. Ι'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my own experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

  10. Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up.

    The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Ie.
    I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I'd post
    to let you know. The style and design look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed
    soon. Thanks
