1) Can stop and ask for directions when lost.
OK, who's next?:...

Not only will I stop and ask... but I normally have a map and I know how to use it.

Does Chicken Paramagne (sp?) count? I even make the sauce from scratch. Normally takes me around an hour to get everything prepaired.

I claim to be crazy... not stoooopid. I'm kinda partial to quality time... and that's a good way to make it go away.

Hey they were on SALE!

Sounds like a fun outing to me...but dont get mad if I come home with more flowers than I have beds for.

How about finding a guy who would actually take a whole day to help mulch the gardens?

Will be adding a fresh coat of mulch in the spring... who wants to help me. Gotta build some new beds too.

As far as the man spending all day mulching....heck, I'd just be happy if he didn't "accidentally" MOW flowers and turn THEM into mulch!!!

ooops... done this before... but they spouted thier heads outside of the beds.

Had one of those once, but I couldn't afford to keep him and he screwed around on me.......

Sounds like fun... and I'd probably be broke afterwards.
