    you can use to put the food into the bowl and the fish go into it to feed. I made mine from a large glass bowl my sis found for me just fill with water turn upside down on a rack under the water and the fish will find it as soon as you put food into it

  • Lamps shades:  I'm in hot pursuit, please help me find them! 8

Design & Décor: Looking for this lamp shade - need 2

I found the lamps on sale at Kirkland's, but the lamp shades are from a lamp sold at Pier 1 and are no longer available. Anyone have a source for this color and style lamp shade? I've Google searched for them for 5 hours last night, and come up with almost nothing -- sadly, the Pottery Barn version is sold out. Thanks for helping!

What is your best guess about the size of these oil jars. No picking on the web site, give it your best shot.

  • This was the pic I posted last fall.
  • And here are the first flowers!  Pretty! 2

My mystery plant has flowers... :D

Last fall I posted a pic of some bulbs that had shoots coming up in November. While we had many suggestions on what they may be, we decided we would have to wait to see if/when they ...»
flowered. The leaves went dormant through our mild winter and continued growing again as spring approached. Now we have flowers, finally. I am sure many of our knowledgeable gardeners here will be able to easily identify it for me. In addition to identifying, I would like to know if their appearance in the fall with flowers in the spring is normal or did they somehow come up at the wrong time?
