Some of them are actually as large as cars! No kidding, they can be. People stack three together, spray them white, and make tumbleweed "snowmen." I've also seen them used as Christmas trees but I wouldn't want one. They are 'stickery'and one must wear gloves to handle them.limpingalonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15503122972212917173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-16967751697529573012008-03-01T00:33:00.000+11:002008-03-01T00:33:00.000+11:00I baked a lot of those cookies in the past, love t...I baked a lot of those cookies in the past, love them.

I can't even deal with the wolf spiders that hang out by my outdoor faucet! They can jump!<BR/><BR/>Is there any truth to the idea of leave it lay and it won't bother to kill you? Americans believe that everything over there wants to and will kill you!! I still dream of visiting someday though, lol...silly me.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953124220818985910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-26703771423633819862008-02-26T08:19:00.000+11:002008-02-26T08:19:00.000+11:00Aaaack!

We've had our first real report from him and I think his orientation included lessons on all sorts of really bad critters that you have there -- hoping he won't run into any of those snakes! He also said it's really hot -- he loves hot climates but was glad for the storm that went through and cooled things off. Those cookies look fantastic -- as does that treat from your last post -- I love cornflakes!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-37679173228908073262008-02-26T07:42:00.000+11:002008-02-26T07:42:00.000+11:00Yikes-that snake was just too close for comfort.

I would first eat the yummy dough and then the warm cookies and my DH would just have to believe I’m great in baking cookies, because there would not be anything left!<BR/>They look great though. <BR/>I never visit food blogs, too tempting.dutchcomforthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986021480546345435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-60078035534077921502008-02-25T23:07:00.000+11:002008-02-25T23:07:00.000+11:00Hi.
