Sometimes with blogging topics, I find they sit for a while and you lose interest. that's no fun for the blogger at all, right? This was really funny that you did this. i love it!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04232693432045335251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-32783661405481928882011-11-26T22:12:07.023+11:002011-11-26T22:12:07.023+11:00Dear Hanna, that is an interesting comment, I supp...Dear Hanna, that is an interesting comment, I suppose creativity is holistic, and multidirectional, I never thought how music might inspire gardens, only the opposite.

But I’ve actually been trying to find the exact opposite. In other words, I’ve been trying to find information about gardens that were inspired by music and some other performing arts.<br /><br />It is my opinion that gardens, even in times of silence, are ever so lyrical. Therefore it goes without saying that gardens and music go hand in hand.Hanna at Orchid Carehttp://orchidcare.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-75280507511166996412011-11-25T23:31:21.035+11:002011-11-25T23:31:21.035+11:00Dear Pauline, i am quite shocked that you show suc...Dear Pauline, i am quite shocked that you show such disregard for the joys of snail farming and eating lol.<br /><br />Dear Darla, thank you for your comment and visit.<br /><br />cheers, catmintSue Catminthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14242341696447975933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-21944098157722034072011-11-22T22:07:33.018+11:002011-11-22T22:07:33.018+11:00I can see why these topics are gnawing at you....t...I can see why these topics are gnawing at you....they sound most interesting.Darlahttp://hundredsofideas.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-13722517915359973552011-11-22T20:27:21.854+11:002011-11-22T20:27:21.854+11:00There are so many subjects here that I would love ...There are so many subjects here that I would love you to write about - please don't get rid of them - although i can do without snail farming !Paulinehttp://leadupthegardenpath.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-52821347014156946632011-11-20T21:39:40.057+11:002011-11-20T21:39:40.057+11:00thanks Faisal, I would love to tell you more, even...thanks Faisal, I would love to tell you more, even if it's only a list of topics.<br /><br />Dear One, I love your blog, and will check out the coffee grounds post.<br /><br />Dear Hermes, thanks for the comment.<br /><br />Dear TVF, that topic is very interesting.

I guess a succulent like portulacca would also quench your thirst?<br /><br />Hi Tina, it fascinates me too.<br /><br />Hi Lyn, thanks for the good laugh.<br /><br />cheers, catmintSue Catminthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14242341696447975933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-9661659354443059182011-11-20T15:30:48.357+11:002011-11-20T15:30:48.357+11:00I couldn't resist the title of this post!

Then I sit at the computer, trying to come up with something to write about. I think the method needs work. As for Australian venomous spiders, everyone knows that all Australian spiders, like Australian snakes, are friendly and harmless and make good pets.Lynhttp://theamateurweeder.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-174929999542605112.post-64401377145609548992011-11-20T13:39:39.865+11:002011-11-20T13:39:39.865+11:00Interesting list.

So I'll schedule the write and then discover that something in the garden happened that I need to write about and then do a double post on the same day because you can't schedule the garden results at different times or people would be confused....they ask questions like , "Why is his bamboo growing in January?" LOL!!!
