Subject: Re: egg,and breadcrumbs

Foxy Lady: This might be straying a little off topic, but that made me think of eggplant parmesan. That is my favorite! Never thought about growing the eggplants though.

(Its really bad when you have to run to the pantry and find the Kraft Parmesan cheese to see how to spell Parmesan!!!)

I haven't seen any Foxy. Last year, when I moved in, these bushes were some 8 feet tall and oh so straggly! I trimmed them back a couple weeks ago to about 4 - 5 feet, and should have trimmed them more, but the weather's been so crazy here in Dallas.

oh yeah, that reminds me. I've always wanted to plant some sunflowers.

Next question, this one could be a tough one for you all. My house faces north. There are several oak trees in the yard, so it is very shady. However, there is intense sunlight in the late afternoon that hits past the trees. I want to put out some plants around the front of the house, but if I go with shady plants, the afternoon sun will totally fry them, and the rest of the day, they wouldn't get enough light for a sunny plant. Any suggestions? I had thought of something like azaleas, but I'm not sure if that will work.

Dang Texas weather! LOLOL

Subject: Cockatoos?

Modified by Eriisa (24. March 2005, 13:43:13)

Hey Bernice, I got 2 Mollocan Cocatoos! I put Oak branches (4 foot ones) in the males cage for him to chew on. One thing I've wondered is what type of plants I could grow that I could give them to eat etc.

Its going to hit 80 here in Dallas, they say. But by Saturday the high will be in the 50's.
