Thanks for the recipe as I do have some fresh cherries to use and soon some figs too. <br /><br />Say, have you ever posted the 'garden prints' (or blue prints) to your garden design.. showing what type of flowers are where and what goes well with others? I'd love to pick up some very good tips as I am growing tired of moving spring and fall the plants from here to there due to sun, flowers and other issues. <br /><br />Please please pretty please?? <br /><br />I would be most thankful, which I am every time I come to 'roost' for a spell. <br /><br />with much love, <br />Cotton PeonyCotton Peonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05827281245777703856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4245215492918574322.post-87372222721236674762012-08-07T17:19:09.384-03:002012-08-07T17:19:09.384-03:00Hi Carolyn,
