Yellow Evening Primrose
Invalid Image LinkSold
Invalid Image Link
The brownest of brown thumbs can grow this biennial (Oenothera) but it should not be grown by everyone. It is an aggressive spreader, which is why I have plants to give away, but it is easy to control by pulling up extra plants. It produces rosettes of leaves the first year and flowers the second when it blooms in May. You will get a clump of rosettes that will yield flowers. It prefers full sun but will grow in partial shade. More pictures for P14 can be found under Plants here. 1 0 000010.0 10 .00005E7 5

Vegan with A Vengeance

When we lived in Florida, we bought a delicious vegan auction dinner from UU friends who had been (and still are) vegans for years. They told us that this was the absolute best vegan cookbook. While it might be better for our health to be vegans, it turns out that we are committed omnivores so we are ready to rehome this book. There is one recipe for tofu marinade that has a lot of Don's written notes; otherwise, the book is pristine. 1 0 000010.0 10 .00005E7 5

Digital Photo Colorization - Bring Old Images to Life
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
Offered by Kathy's husband Steve Smith:

I will digitally colorize up to 5 of your b&w vintage photos (family snapshots, historic images, etc.), using a combination of artificial intelligence and Photoshop skills honed over months of lockdown.

Photos should be provided to me as jpeg files. The better the originals the better the results: sharpness and good contrast are the most important factors. Clothing colors will be a guess on my part unless you have knowledge of such that you can provide with the photos. The colorized jpegs I return to you will be the same size and resolution as the B&W's you send me.

See before/after examples in photo (view larger versions by looking for S14 under Services here) and see more at my website.

"repast" by Danny Gotham

repast is a double CD. I spent about two years on it; it is a special project to commemorate turning sixty and being (more or less) in one piece. I have a huge supporting cast, and the music reflects my eclectic tastes: An original mandolin waltz, a Puerto Rican cuatro piece, Count Basie's "Down for Double", a solo ukulele rendition of "Something", you name it. The one real departure for me on this album are the tracks featuring some good friends doing lead vocals. Thirty-two tracks; about an hour and forty three minutes of music. If "Guitarheel" was my magnum opus, this is a double. A very filling "meal"....Guaranteed. 1 0 000025.0 25 .00025E7 25

Stuffie Sleepover at Church
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
Is your child missing church? On Saturday Nov 14, Religious Education will host a stuffed animal sleepover at church. Each winner will drop off one special stuffed animal to represent one special child at this sleepover. The stuffed animals will drink tea, play sardines, and probably run on the pews (shoes off of course). Imagine what fun your child's stuffed animal will have playing with other stuffies while the church is empty. Each winner will get a video of the entire event. 30 19 000010.0 10 .0001E7 10 11/14/20 12:00 PM

You can choose a flavor for your batter and whether you want vegan or regular mix. We will convene at 3pm on a ZOOM call to learn how to prepare truffle batter and then we will roll truffles using the pre-made batter. This is a fun activity for adults doing it alone or with children of any ages. Eat your truffes off line on or before Valentines Day. I will provide the recipe in advance so if you want you can gather the ingredients to prepare another batch of truffle batter during the ZOOM call and roll them the next day.

Purchasers will receive the Zoom code the morning of the event. One place = one computer/household. From the airbnb experience website: "Step back into time and virtually experience the empty streets of Prague during the Black Death and plagues of the 17th and 18th centuries. Through video, we'll follow the footsteps of Dr. Alexander Schamsky, an unknown Czech hero who fought the plague in 1713. From the “personal protective equipment” of the time to the deserted landmarks of the city, you’ll immerse yourself in the forgotten history of the pneumonic and bubonic plagues. The movie was shot with a professional movie camera during times of quarantine and shows the abandoned old town. A map is included to track our journey." 25 11 000020.0 20 .0002E7 20 12/12/20 3:00 PM

This year’s new skill is called French randing and adds a multicolored Band around the center of the basket. And what can be better than the addition of a Katie Donovan lunch!

Instructions for mounting and caring for the nest box is included. 2 0 000025.0 25 .00015E7 15

Cheeseburgers in (Post-Pandemic?) Paradise
Invalid Image LinkSold
Invalid Image Link
We've lived in Florida and been to Key West but paradise for us is cheeseburgers on the deck with friends right here in North Carolina. Come enjoy both of them (the cheese is optional) as the weather (hopefully) begins to turn from summer to fall. We'll have appetizers, grass-fed ground beef burgers and trimmings, Waldorf salad, some veggie concoction, and a delicious chocolate dessert. Beer, wine, and sparkling water will be available. Our deck is large enough to be "socially distanced" if required. The picture is from this year's dinner. Check BLD1 under Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner Events here to see more pictures of the September 2020 dinner. Rain date is the next day, Sunday, September 26, 2021. 6 0 000040.0 40 .0002E7 20 9/25/21 5:00 PM
