I could swear I already posted this earlier but do not see it: we bought and planted a magnolia tree last week. I look forward to it being big enough in a couple of years for me to cut out leaf clusters to use in Holiday floral designs.

Thanks for the encouragement! Maybe I could start a new business! Limoncello for all!! Plus lemon meringue pie...lemon squares...the list is endless...
A couple of years ago DH managed to harvest a huge juicy lemon from his lemon tree. It was huge. I made lemon chickenQuote:
