Title: Dark Town After Dark, Loose Shoes
A spoof on President Gerald Ford's Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz who thought he knew what would satisfy the "negroes." In this PC world it probably will be extremely offensive to some. I personally think it is the funniest damned video I have ever seen. It disappeared for a long time and even this version is not the original which featured three blacks spoofing an all black Cab Calloway type big band. From the movie "Loose Shoes."
Well, it's official: Shug and I (mostly Shug) have decided to give gardening a try. We've prepped the soil, tilled in the best organic cow poo, and even started a compost bin! The sun was shining on our efforts last weekend and we had aspirations to get a few hardy plants in the ground yesterday.
But, in our gardening zeal we forgot the most important aspect of a successful garden: good weather. I don't mean "good weather" as a constant temperature in the mid-80s, a few perfectly formed cumulus clouds floating by being sure to detour around the sun so as not to block its gentle beams, and a cooling breeze that kicks up only when I need to dab the ladylike glow of perspiration from my SPFed 55 brow. No. All I'm asking for, in official Spring mind you, is for the ground to quit freezing and the damned snow to stop flying!
Shug and I awoke to three inches of snow blanketing our prepped earth, with one valiant and reckless scallion plant trying to maintain its posture under the weight of a heavy cap of ice. Ruby tried to make us feel better by promptly pooping on the mound of lonely soil, letting us know ALL that digging and shoveling and tilling did NOT go to waste - its the perfect doggy potty, she seemed to communicate.
With more snow in the forecast today, Shug and I may have to postpone our planting even longer. I'll keep you posted on how the gardening battle wages.
Do you like gardening? Do you have any tips on how to get your veggies to flourish? Any organic gardening tips? I will take any and all suggestions!

Title: Garden Restaruant in Clark Philippines - Clearwater Resort Garden Cafe in Clark Freeport
This is exactly the kind of places that people talk about but nobody can find it when they set out to look for it. That's why I am writing to review, not only to tell you that such a place exists north of Manila but why you should not give up trying to find it whenever you find yourself in Angeles, Subic or Clark.
First of all, why is it worth the search? Well if breakfast (or lunch for that matter) is a little more than just filling up with food and coffee then you are one of those who prefers to start a day properly. There is no better way to do that then to implant a picture of green and blue in your mind. That's the view from the Clearwater Garden Cafe a.k.a. Clearwater Breakfast Garden. Presented to us is the view of the lake of Clearwater Resort & country Club, a glimpse of the white-sand beach, the idyllic lakeside lodge across the lake and to the right the fabulous Frolic garden which is laced with age-old Acacia trees.
The food is standard fare, nothing that would challenge grandma or even her yayas culinary skills. Portions are fairly large but not excessive so for a fair-size human being not on a silly diet all the time, it is finish-able. I ordered the English breakfast while my companions stuck to local versions. I kinda like the bangers and the grilled tomatoes also. My friends said the Tocino was nice but I have to suspect that these were bought from somewhere and not homemade. Anyway who cares, as long as it tastes good, right?
Before we arrived, we were worried about two young children we brought along, age 3 and 5.5. To our (very pleasant) surprise and relief, we found out that there was a kiddie playground adjoining the Clearwater Garden Cafe. How thoughtful? Later I was told that members of the Clearwater Country Club which owns the cafe by the way, bring their kids over to enjoy the playground every weekend. Our kids loved it and that meant the adults could relax and enjoy the breakfast while reading newspapers also. Talking about reading, they had nice magazines too - Wine Enthusiasts! right up my alley, and Home and Garden for the better halves.
Now, getting there was not as easy as I expected. Working in my favor was the fact that I already knew of its existence from a friend who stayed in the resort several months ago. I drove in from Manila so I entered Clark the usual way, from Dau Angeles. I followed instructions well and just drove straight without making a single turn. There was a tricky fork but I was already told to bear right when in doubt. I was in doubt so I did not take the left. I past Mimosa to my left and continued on for another 100m or so and got to a big intersection. The directional signs painted on the road misled me. You see, there were two lanes on the road and painted on one was a left-turn arrow and the other a right-turn which would suggest that going straight was not an option. Well, that costed me 5 minutes. You guessed it. The correct way was to go straight! Clearwater Resort is just 150m past that big intersection and entrance is on the right.
I got their web site for you. It is www.YatsLeisure.com. I think you can google them with Clearwater Country Club or Clearwater Resort Philippines.
not being a member of Clearwater Country Club I could only enjoy the Garden cafe which is open to the public daily 7am to 7pm. I looked at the lunch menu and it was simple and inexpensive. I think this place is not about gourmet fine-dining but more about style and ambience. I have to admit, I loved it despite a light drizzle ended my stay a little prematurely. We had to retreat back to the indoor portion of the cafe after that. Maybe you'd have better luck with the weather when you visit them.
Don't miss it whenever you have made it that far, to Angeles or Clark or even if you are coming in from Subic. This place makes you feel good and to me, that's priceless.

Title: Rose Garden (Nick Jonas love story) Chapter 1
NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED!!!!! just to let you know... ________________________________________________________________
Chapter 1! woot!
I start my day off at the shop, just like every other day. I walk into the part of the store where the window is and put my
apron on. I quietly humm the song 'Rose Garden' by Nick Jonas and the Administration. That song is, I swear, based on my life.
I start to clip some roses for the window display. I take out my clippers and then start to walk over to the fresh roses.
But, me being me, I tripped and of course the clippers went straight into the palm of my left hand. luckily they didn't go
through my whole hand, but the pain felt unbearable. I scream in pain once I fully realize what happened. I quickly rip the clippers out of my hand, causing more pain. Someone comes running over to me, my mom, to see what was happening. I clutch my left hand in my right. My mom just scoffs and starts walking away.
"Get outside, I don't want to have to clean up blood." She says over her shoulder and goes back to the register.
Crying, I walk outside and lean against the brick wall. I slide down the wall, the bricks scraping my back as my shirt
slowly rides up back. Once I reach the ground I pull the back of my shirt down, getting blood on it. I then clutch my hand
again. I whimper as I accidentally touch the large slice in my hand.
I continue to cry. No one has walked by yet because we don't start selling for another few minutes and 'cause there are no other shops on this street.
It's been about 10 minutes and I'm still crying, when someone comes running towards our store. It's just a blurry figure to me because they're to far away. But, before the person could get here, my mom comes out. She stands next to me and looks down at me. I look up at her. "What?" I ask harshly, but in a whisper.
"You have to be back in there now, we're openning. Here's a rag." She says and throws a rag over my face. I grab it off my
face, stand up, and tie the rag tightly around my left hand. The bleeding has almost sub-sided so I walk in the store and get back to my job of clipping the roses and putting them in a vase and in the window. Then suddenly a boy, looking my age, comes running through the open door. He turns around.
"I win! You're buying Joe!" He yells at someone running down the street across from the store trying not to trip. I giggle slightly, ignoring the pain in my hand. The boy turns to look at me and walks over to me I quickly look away, blushing, and get back to my job. "Hey, what kind of flowers do you sell here?" He asks, still walking over to me.
"Well, we've got tulips, dasies, roses, and a few others. But mostly roses, because this is a rose garden." I say still
clipping the roses and putting them in vases.
"Hmmm, do you sell chrysanthemums?" He asks, walking closer to me. I think for a second.
"Yes. Are you looking for a bouqet of some sort?" I ask looking at him now.
"Yes, actually, I need tulips, chrysanthemums, and roses. What color roses do you have?" He asks and looks slightly
confused.
"We have blue, red, pink, tinted purple, and lime green. Any color imparticular?" I ask and peek at the front desk behind
him. I can clearly see a sticky note from my mom. She probably left me here for the day and to close up tonight.
"Well, it's my mom's birthday and umm... I actually don't know her favorite color." He admits, his face tinting scarlet. I giggle and walk over to the roses.
"Come over here." I say and he walks over. "Well you see, what we could do is get her a few of all the colors and add some tulips and chrysanthemum around the edges." I say while grabbing two of each color of roses. I then walk over to the tulips and he folows me. "Now we add the tulips." I say and space them out around the roses, to fit the chrysanthemums in.
I then take him over to the chrysanthemums and put a few of them in the spaces between the tulips. I grab a few pieces of plastic colorful paper and securely wrap it around the flowers so it stays. I hand it to the boy. "And walla!" I say as he takes them out of my hand.
"It's beautiful, thank you so much." He says, the biggest smile on his face. I giggle again. God what's wrong with me today?
"How much do you want for it?" He asks looking at me.
"On the house." I says turning to walk away. But he stops me.
While you won't usually see this flower predominating an arrangement or bouquet, the yellow billy ball is a great add-on to give any floral piece that perfect summery touch. It's bulbous, globe-like shape and vibrant yellow color make this flower stand out as and interesting and unique find. Here at the Hidden Garden we've added great texture and interesting variation to many of our floral designs with the help of the billy ball.
Firstly I think I'd like to share with you our original thoughts and inspiration behind this exquisitely beautiful, authentically autumnal wedding day...
Wuthering Heights:
Key words: Dreamy, Candle lit Romance, Earthy tones, Soft mosses, Nutmeg and Cinnamon, Romantic Heroine, Windswept, Natural, Simplicity in terms of structure. Colours: Ochre, Champagne, Crème, Ivory, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, highlights in gold. Flowers: Poppy and lotus seed heads, Brassica, Rose hips, Grasses, Lichen branches, Roses, Viburnum Tinnus, Oak leaves, Rosemary for remembrance, Ivy trails and berries, Mosses, Heather, English Orchids such as a ladies slipper orchid. Sundries: Slate, Granite, Wood, Candles, Nutmeg and Cinnamon Sticks. Shapes: Wild, Natural and Spontaneous Designs: Simply tied no voiles, Natural uncomplicated designs Senses heightened by: Fragrance, Colour, Taste and Texture.
Baring in mind your chosen venue along side the time of year your wedding takes place we get an overwhelming sense of rustic opulence. Hoghton Tower in all its grey grandeur stands proudly against a backdrop of country moors, a scene that ensures that we cannot help but think of the windswept, bucolic setting of Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights. A tale of passion, love swept along with natural imagery. We would begin to create this look using subtle autumnal tones; slate greys turned aubergine by autumnal showers, leaf browns and clotted creams interspersed with subtle hints of rusted berries, nuts and mossy greens. We will use a combination of substantial and beautiful materials not necessarily conventional flowers, moreover materials with lots of texture and objects such as nuts berries, granite, gnarled lichen engorged branches, slate and moss to create an overall picture of total unsuperficiality. The raw, natural materials will be set perfectly against the rustic, historic masculinity of Hoghton Tower. I intend to use fauna which will be representative of new beginnings, both nature and marriage symbolise renaissance. A balance between rustic and romance, in terms of colour and design is necessary and following this theme ensures this specifically with the bridesmaid’s gowns in mind. Highlighting the whole day with the romantic twinkle of clustered candle light will complete an extremely romantic look... those were my thoughts, my hopes and this is the realisation enjoy......
After delivering Caroline's Bridal Bouquets to the family home here in Lytham St Annes, we arrived at Holy Trinity Church, Hoghton nice and early to meet the Groom Matthew (I do hope you can see the romantic hero in him!) and his Groom's Men, the Boutonniere I designed for Matthew focused on the very wild "Ladies Slipper Orchid" (Paphiopedilum) together with a sprig of Lily of the Valley, Crocosmia & Hypericum Berries all which were used in his Bride's Bridal Bouquet. We arranged huge hurricane lamps on stone pillars, with Gingers, Nerines, Hazel, Banksias and Golden Hornet surrounding the lamp. The Groom's Men's Boutonniere'd were a collection of berries; Crocosmia, Albiflora, Hypericum and Rosemary & Ivy.
The very beautiful Bridsmaid's arrived wearing burnt Ochre, autumnal coloured gowns with a black wrap.
THE BRIDAL BOUQUET
The bouquet I created for Caroline was in a “Flower Design” hand tied style with Lily of the Valley, Schwartzwalder Calla Lilies, Ivory Nerines, Rose Amnesia & Sahara, Cardifolium Leucospernum, Grasses, Lichen branches, Roses, Viburnum Tinnus, Oak leaves, Rosemary for remembrance, Ivy trails and berries, Mosses, Heather, Ladies slipper & Oncidium orchids.
The Bridesmaids Bouquets
I used Schwartzwalder & Mango Callas, Oncidium & Paphiopedilum Orchids, Skimmea, Lily of the Valley, Oak Leaf (Quercus) and Roses Amnesia, Hypnose & Sahara.
I love the colours throughout this wedding I think they reflect the season beautifully.
On the end of each pew I tied a simple nosegay of Crocosmia (Monbretia), Callas, Roses &Hypericum tied with some rough raffia
So many congratulations to this fabulous couple
The Brides parents, Janet, Bride's Mum is wearing a simple corsage of Amnesia Rose & Rolled Petals with some sprigs of fragrant Lily of the Valley.
Then to the spectacular reception venue Hoghton Tower
The entertainment was provided by the adorable Mr Paul Dobie
In the parlour we'd dressed the windowsills with mosses and candles
In the most atmospheric Banqueting Hall in Lancashire we'd gone all out with these fabulous "Living Sculptures" each table was dressed with its own individual design surrounding a plethora of chapel candles. Chairs were covered by Dawn from Creative Cover Hire
The Top Table, which is incidentally steeped in history, it's the original table where the piece of beef was knighted to become "Sir Loin"
The cake
I dressed it with complimentary co-ordinating flowers including a top section and then a swag that trailed around the cake.
Rowley's were the wonderful caterers and our great friends, they are truly superb caterers specialising in creating something seriously individual and totally delicious
These final three images were taken by professional photographer Martyn Pearson, many thanks to him for providing them.
At the end of the evening Caroline lined up her friends and the wedding bouquet took flight!
This was the most elegant and beautiful wedding, a fabulous family who were an absolute joy to work with.

So many live only for the moment
Your scent bewilders my sins
Your eyes slay my mind
My thoughts always near you
The fire of passion burns like the loneliness
without you
