Bev, Not fun to need an electrician-- but it's nice to know that you were safe while that light fixture was doing it's thing up in the ceiling!
We always take in our hibiscus plants, the mandevilla vine, the geraniums, etc. It's sort of a mess to get all the pots situated in the house for the winter.
I baked a really sweet squash recently. I'm hoping it was a heritage variety where the seeds will produce, because I've saved them. They are drying on a towel on the dining room table. In a couple of months I'll plant them to see what happens. Any gardener here have any tips for me in this process? I usually buy packets of seeds, but I thought I'd try saving my own. It was such a tasty squash!! I want it's babies!!
