Hi All,


It has been raining for a couple of days. Supposed to stop tomorrow by noon. Lucy's farm is mostly grass and the drive has road base. So,we plan to have the swap on Saturday as scheduled! Can't wait to see you all.

    Good news. We've had about 5 inches of rain so far since Wednesday evening here in Westminster.

    Great to hear the swap is still on. The plants are ready to find new homes, though a few are still pretty small.

    Thank you Camille and Lucy for your hospitality! The food was wonderful, the rain waited and there really was a nice batch of plants. It was a great swap. I enjoyed catching up with the regulars and meeting some new gardeners.

    Lucy and I have talked about it a lot along with friends and family. What a great swap it was! We both put in some plants yesterday... in the drizzle... and it was fun! I am always humbled by how much garden information you all know and I am fortunate to now know you all! Hope someone wants to host a fall swap! Lucy is already talking about considering having another spring swap next year! Thank you all again! Arbor Wolf (Camille)

    Thank you everyone for a great swap and wonderful plants and people! Here (finally, sorry for the delay) is my cream cheese veggie pizza recipe!

    First cook and cool any pizza crust you want to use.

    SeSecond finely chop the veggies you want to use or put them through a food processor. I usually use broccoli carrots and mushrooms.

    Third, prepare the cream cheese. I usually leave it out for a few minutes so it will soften up. That way it is easier to spread. You can buy the veggie cream cheese or you can add your own herbs. I usually put basil parsley and garlic salt and pepper.

    Next spread the cream cheese on the pizza crust. Top with the veggies and then finally shredded cheese. I usually push the veggies and creaminto cheese down intointo before I cut it so it all stays together better.


    The last sentence is why it always takes me forever to post anything on Houzz. If I make any kind of error it is impossible to correct the text. Does anyone else have this problem? If I go back and try to delete or correct one of those words it will just automatically repeat them and make me crazy! I have tried using my tablet also. And I have tried correcting my keyboards. Nothing just frustration... Anyway thanks for all the plans everyone and enjoy the upcoming sunshine!

    yEs!


    I usually just try to post later.


    The answer to how to post easily and successfully hasn't occurred to me. I DO NOT want to rant about the problems (& they have been going on for years). I DO NOT want to see the Rocky Mountain forum fold up and be abandoned. But, Cat', you aren't alone with having that problem.

    Thanks. I am not that smooth with technology so I thought it was user error! d tried to post that recipe about three other times and kept getting frustrated and not having the time for patients to get it done

    Something that you might want to do - maybe if you are trying for something fairly exact, like a recipe - is to type out the note in a different app.


    Copy and Paste. Done. Submit.


    I don't know much about technology. What I think one could say is that the forums have problems syncing with our keyboards.
