Pretty enough to eat
Jaz sent me a photo of her latest creation: a 2-layer strawberry cake with vanilla frosting in the middle and a layer of strawberry preserve. She called it her “First Semi-Professional Birthday Cake!” I call it a beautiful, professional job! Pass me a fork! -
New salvia coming soon
I received an email today regarding my Salvia chamaedryoides order from Lazy S’S Farm Nursery. The 2 plants I ordered should be arriving the week of Sept 17. Incidentally, the bill totaled 34.18, shipping charges exceeded the price of the two plants. 🙁

Replacing irises and another salvia purchase
My replacement irises arrived yesterday, and I was happy to receive two Zzzanzibars from Brad and Kathie. With Dash wreaking destruction on the iris bed, the replacements arrived just as I assessed the damage. It appears one of the Blueberry Fillies got partially chewed, and an Alpha Gnu got dislodged. I replanted everything and put the Zzzanzibars in their new homes.
Also yesterday, I put in an order for 2 Salvia chamaedryoides from Lazy S’S Farm online store. I can’t wait to get these in my yard.

Playing with fonts…and setting up a new site
I found this post on web fonts and embedded fonts very illuminating. It illustrates the various browser issues that web surfers and designers have to deal with on a daily basis.
Meanwhile, RichardandMeghan.com is up and running. Take a look! More work ahead. At the moment, I’m exploring ways of embedding live video chat/conferencing on the site, but it appears that free options are limited. I found some net info on the subject, but I was hoping to use an existing platform like Yahoo Messenger to host video chat directly on the blog. Doesn’t look like there are any ways to embed YIM’s webcam into a site yet.
