What Variety is a True Violet Color, and can I grow it outside?
I am new to this forum. I would love to grow a few violets with that really violet color. Why? Because I wish to candy them for garnish, and infuse liqueur with the non-candied ones along with some purple figs... Yummmmmm!
I have horror stories with fungus gnats invading house plants, so I hesitate.
I do keep fresh produce like fruit/tomatoes on a plate in the kitchen, and also have a little compost bowl. The gnats find a way.
I lost a forest of baby figs grown from cuttings due to those gnats, so here are the questions:
1. I have a pot shelf on a north facing wall. It is always in the shade, even in late afternoon due to the roof overhang. Would that be a good spot to grow a few plants?
2. What variety is just true simple purple? Not looking for double fancy here. Just a plain little violet.
3. Where do I buy it?
I believe you are not looking for Saintpaulias (african violets) but for the sweet violet, a member of the pansy family.
Here's a link I found when I was checking. I love those violets too but they froze out here.
I think there are other forums that could help you.
Let us know if you really wanted to candy African violets.
Here you go. There is a forum here for violets (the viola kind that is what people candy and eat).

First, you need to find out if they are safe for human consumption. Chemically, they are mostly sugar and water. Next, send for a packet of seeds from Parks or Nadeau and raise your own organically. One packet will
hundreds for just a few dollars.
Thanks for the answers. I am clueless on violets. Ask me about wine grapes, I got all the answers!! But I didn't even know Africans were not the same as sweet violets.
I shall purchase some seeds, and do my thing. Thanks so much for your help!
Hi Suzi The seeds I mentioned are for African Violets, not the wild sugar violets you grow outdoors in the garden, like a crop. So, I don't think the Park's or Nadeau seeds are what you are looking for. Hopefully, you will be able to find some wild violet seeds to sew outdoors or in a window garden.
You are in Southern California. I doubt violas or violets will grow outside, maybe in the winter.
I plant viola seeds or started plants in September.
I put the seeds or plants in a plastic coffee can with holes punched in the bottom for drainage.
I put that in a pretty cache pot
I place the seedlings or started plants in front of a Very Sunny window on a table in the living room.
I always have bowl full of viola blossoms cascading down by Christmas
I enjoy them all winter long until about April when it starts getting too warm. When the plants get scruffy looking in the late spring, I toss them. Start over the next September
I plan to grow them in winter. Bought some Viola Odorata Queen Charolotte seeds on Ebay... 70 seeds. I'll start em in Oct. We have pine groves, and a lot of trees, so I'll put them in partial shade on drip systems, and try a few in pots.
I want to try these sweet edibles.
Should be fun. A little experiment!
Fungus gnats are only an issue in very moist organic soils. Moderating your watering practices or adjusting your media may help.
All in all, fungus gnats are quite easy to control.
STEP 1: Go to your local BBS and by a package of mosquito dunks (they look like little donuts).
STEP 2: Break off a 1/4 of a donut and put it in a plastic gallon milk jug.
STEP 3: Fill jug with water and let sit for a couple days.
STEP 4: Shake/agitate the water in the jug a bit and then water your plants with the dunk water. (Leave the dunk chunk in the jug.)
STEP 5: Refill jug and repeat the next time you water.
Eventually the chunk will completely disintegrate, at which point you put a new piece in. NOTE: This is not an instant fix. It will take a week or two.

Welcome, Dylan Thompson
Look up evolution in the dictionary and you'll see: "a process of change in a certain direction."
Nothing better represents that commitment to change and progression than the Park City All Stars and the manner in which these athletes push the envelope of creativity in film and competition. Today the "I Ride Park City" team continues to evolve with the announcement of its newest All Star: Dylan Thompson.
"I have enjoyed riding Park City since I first moved out to Utah and to be joining such a sick team feels really good," Dylan told us about joining up with the All Stars. We're glad he's here.
If you don't know Dylan's riding, we look forward to introducing him to you in the edits to come this season. If you do, you know you have a great new reason to stay dialed into the blog.
Dylan's reputation for versatility distinguishes him as a rider, and the man backs up the rep. "I like riding everything," he told us. "I mostly film on urban type stuff. I love riding pow and I would like to spend more time filming it in the future. I also ride as much park as I can in between trips."
Fellow All Star Dan Brisse knows there's a lot to love about Dylan's riding, "This kid's got so much talent he can pretty much do anything. His urban riding is top notch and I look forward to watching him in years to come."
Get ready to see a lot of Dylan here this season. Evolution.

News for tag: Italy
Tonight the Italian Song Contest, the popular Festival di Sanremo, came to the end of its 65th edition. with the announcement of the new winner: the group Il Volo!! They will sing Grande Amore for Italy at the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna.
It's been a week full of emotions, fashion and, of course, music in Italy as their popular song contest has been taking place in Sanremo. It all comes to an exciting end tonight when the winner of this 65th edition will be announced. You can watch the show with us starting at 20:50 CET!
Back in October the Italian broadcaster RAI confirmed that the winner of the Festival di Sanremo 2015 will have the right to represent Italy at the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest in Austria. Tonight, and for the following four evenings the Festival takes place in Sanremo and you can watch it live on Sanremo's site, on Rai.tv as well as with the Rai app.
The 20 acts that will participate in the "CAMPIONI" (established artists) category at the next edition of the Italian Song Contest, Sanremo 2015, are now confirmed. The winner of this section of the contest will have the right to represent Italy at the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna.
In the last few minutes Italy has won the 2014 Junior Eurovision Song Contest, with the song Tu Primo Grande Amore sung by Vincenzo Cantiello
The Sanremo Festival was organized for the first time in 1951 and was the main inspiration for the Eurovision Song Contest five years later. Many Sanremo winners went on to represent Italy in Eurovision and, as its rules state, this might be the case in 2015 again.
The Eurovision Song Contest unites people. Dilara from Azerbaijan, Emma from Italy and the French TWIN TWIN are a very good example for it. The singers had a lot of fun racing for the Eurovision Song Contest trophy. Whatch the video about their excitement of being the winner of the biggest music TV show and holding the trophy, well, not the original one but a well-produced copy of it.
The live show for the Final takes place tomorrow evening, when viewers in 37 countries will have their opportunity to vote to decide the winner. It is worth remembering that this evening's dress rehearsal is of equal significance, as this is the rehearsal that the professional juries will be watching and voting on, and they are responsible for 50% of the votes.
During her first press conference earlier this week, Italy's Emma confessed that she was a bit tired and needed to improve some details in her performance. That has changed now: "today I'm feeling good because the first rehearsal today was better but in the second rehearsal, I will be like perfect!"
Just a bit after noon Emma was ready on stage, for the second rehearsal of Italy at the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest, dressed in a Bowie-inspired white, silver and golden mini dress. But it is the white cape on her shoulders and the laurel wreath on her head which makes her look like a goddess.
There are so many superlatives that we could say about Emma from Italy. A story about her amazing career started in early 2000 in Salento and it turned into a huge success just in a few years. Many circumstances led her to Rome. However, an invitation to represent Italy at Eurovision Song Contest came after some bestselling albums and many outstanding projects.
Many visitors to this site will recall the last time Copenhagen staged the Eurovision Song Contest in 2001 in the huge Parken Stadium. However fewer will recall the first time that Denmark hosted the contest, way back on the 21st of March, 1964. Today we recall the 50th anniversary of that contest.
Some days ago we announced that Italian top star Emma Marrone will represent her country at the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest. We can now confirm that the song she will sing in Copenhagen is La Mia Città.
The Italian broadcaster RAI just made the official confirmation that Italy will be represented in the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest by one of their most popular artists, Emma. She has been the biggest selling female artist in her country in 2013.
MTV European Music Awards are to be held tonight in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Among others, two Eurovision Song Contest artists are in the game - Lena and Marco Mengoni!

excess ammonia can cause fainting so i didn't think it was the case with myself , that my symptoms could stay the same for so long without any fainting attacks.
Excess ammonia can cause coma and death. That is why the body converts ammonia in to uric acid, which is hydrolyzed in to urea and passed off as urine. Ammonia is also excreted through the skin, which is why sweat can smell so bad.

From Seattle to Orlando, gardening a whole new ballgame
Hi friends, We're thinking about moving away from our island outside of Seattle and retiring just south of Orlando. From 8b to 9b, not much change in low temp, but a world of difference in the garden!
Nematodes! Late freezes! Too hot, too cold, cockroaches! (We'll get chickens for that problem), but whew! reading this forum makes me realize that my 40 years of organic gardening in the northern tier states mean nothing, NOTHING!
Please help me out here. Can I grow cool veg like lettuce, kohlrabi, radishes, turnips, spinach? The low temps make me think I can't in the winter, too hot in the summer. I know you have spring and fall seasons, is that what we're talking about here?
And please define spring! fall!
There's a similar amount of rainfall, but Seattle drizzles it out over nine months and then presents us with a drought in July, August, Sept. But your rainfall looks like it's mostly in the summer and I'm wondering how hard it is - does it tear your plants to shreds?
Oh, yeah, and what about warm weather veg like tomatoes, eggplant, sweet potatoes, cukes. I read about having to tear out toms because of mildew, and here I was thinking I could finally grow them because our cool maritime climate in Puget Sound made me give up on those crops years ago. But can you grow them and when?
Well, I've got amillion questions but I'll stop here. Spring is coming for us. Do you have spring? Thanks!!!
Hi Buzzy
Welcome to the Florida garden forum! there is another garden friend that comes from Seattle and is gardening in Florida now, maybe he can share his experience here.
All the crops that you listed above can be grown here at the proper time. Right now we are in transition harvesting cold crops and planting warm season crops.
This morning small harvest for lunch, the eggplants were planted last spring, I succession plant carrots, beets, radish.
A bed planted with spinach, radishes and lettuce
Tomatoes are ready to be planted in the garden now.
Wow, that IS a big change!
Lettuces and other greens grow well here over winter, as well as radishes and onions/garlic.
My tomatoes produced like gangbusters early. May through late August, but then I started seeing a lot of hornworms and my husband wanted to move the garden, so I tore them out. I'm sure they would have produced another two months had it not been for those two things. My bell and jalepeno peppers did well all summer. Cukes did beautifully until the rainy season hit in July and then they mildewed. We had an especially rainy summer here in northwest Florida. It can rain very hard, but I didn't have any problems with plants being torn up.
I'm abot 6 hours north of Orlando, so my experience does not directly translate, but generally you can grow all the things you mentioned, it just may have to be during a time you are not accustomed to.
Thank you Floridians! I don't have to despair of my salads. The pix are gorgeous, healthy roots, beautiful colors, looks like a fabulous lunch!
So is it possible to have: a tropical garden with plumeria, bananas, mandevilla, jasmine, cherimoya, coffee, tea, etc.
in one corner of the acre, and: English cottage garden with roses, lilies, lavender, primroses, dianthus, daisies, campanula, hollyhocks, to name a few I see out the window in another corner, and...
Vegie garden with hots: peppers, toms, cukes, and...
Cools: lettuce, spinach, brassicas
whgille gave me proof of the latter.
So is it Florida or is it Heaven?
Not sure about primroses and campanula growing here. I only see primroses for sale in the supermarkets. I too had to transition from upstate Pa to Philadelphia and then to Vero Beach, Fl and now SE Ga. Your gardening knowledge won't be wasted you just need to learn the seasons. Sometimes spring and fall go by quickly. Up here above Jacksonville we usually have a long spring and fall. I suggest you visit the local ag center to get some free gardening pamphlets and expert advice.
Central/north florida grows better brassicas than the rest of the east coast, excepting the very far north where winters are cold enough that cabbage moth does not exist; conversely cabbage moth cannot survive the very long hot summer of florida. I just cut a wonderful dense head of red cabbage yesterday, not a mark, a spot, a bite on it. Clean as a whistle without any control efforts whatsoever. At home I can't grow a head of cabbage, hardly.
The major change you will experience, and it is very major, is getting used to having essentially no octane in the soil. In addition to severely low nutrients florida sand - unamended - does not hold moisture. The solution to both of course is to add a lot of OM. As well it advisable to add some broad spectrum minerals, whether in synthetic form, organic or rock powder of some kind. Most patches of well-drained sand will benefit from lime initially for common garden crops.
A lot of gardeners in florida use containers with bought soils to avoid nematodes, and that more or less works, but it's expensive and considerably limits plant growth, plus fertility wears out quickly and ph goes up from the high irrigation requirement. We've had very good results in the last few years growing in the ground after considerable amendment, and using rainwater for irrigation to avoid driving up the ph (florida groundwater is alkaline) as well as avoiding the plant-unfriendly compounds in municipal water or even in lake water. We recently switched a garden from lake water to all rainwater and the improvement over six weeks has been marked.
Welcome, buzzy. You might find this older thread interesting:
Here is a link that might be useful: What doesn't grow here
Also, for planning purposes, check out the link below.
If you scroll down the document, you'll see a chart with recommended planting dates for vegetables in each section of the state: North, Central, and South. Orlando is in the Central section.
IFAS also publishes a lot of other articles for home gardeners, including articles recommending cultivars of fruit trees, bushes, and vines for each part of the state. (There is a lot of good reading at the IFAS site.)
You should also pay heed to posts by Silvia (whgille, who posted above). She has a terrific year-round Orlando vegetable garden, plus bananas, fruit trees, berry bushes, an avocado tree, and probably a bunch of other edibles I'm forgetting.
Here is a link that might be useful: UF/IFAS Vegetable Gardening Guide
Thank you Laura, the good thing about having an edible garden in Florida is the convenience to have fresh produce for our daily meals, there is always something ready for the picking, flavor and nutrition is the best!
Thanks for all the good info. You are a kind and generous bunch.
I'm still a little concerned about the nematodes because they sound extremely difficult to eradicate, and I'm not crazy about growing in containers because I am hoping to grow a substantial amount of our food and just don't want to deal with that many containers.
What are good Florida sources of organic matter free or cheap? Or is that a closely guarded secret, like the good mushroom hunting grounds are up here?
Can you grow bananas, cherimoya, citrus, in St Cloud, just south of Orlando?
thanks again to everyone!
Like other places the municipalities are the best bet for free OM. IME, nematodes are controlled by best practice, not eradicated. We have only had nematode problems when growing the same crop in the same ground several seasons running without substantial amendments. Crop rotation is the key.

O'Tooles sale
Last year Aloha was kind enough to let us know about a great sale O'Toole's was having and it's back. Regularly $7.99 quart sized perennials are 99 cents, 4" pots are 50 cents, although this size went down to 25 cents last year, the clerk doesn't think they'll go that low this year. The 50 centers are on the east side of the building.
I snagged 50 cent iceplant, cobweb sempervivens, turkish veronica, ajuga and 99 cent catmint, salvia and ajuga.
$30 roses are $9.99. They have Knockouts, Zephirine Drouhin, Francis Meidiland, New Dawn and others..
Trees and shrubs are half off. They have 3 locations in the Denver area. I went to the one in Westminster.
Happy bargain shopping!
Thanks Treebarb for your message again; and I posted to your thread instead of sending you a private message; and I can't delete this post? so I will leave it here even though it isn't on topic.
Thanks again for the message, it looks the person in CO was happy with his mulberry this year. My problem is too many young (25 ft ish) trees in my small yard, I love them all but I want to cut some of them back/take them out before they get too big especially the cottonwoods.
I hadn't heard of the peashrub I will take a look and I will be sure to wrap my tiny zelkova very soon
This post was edited by olreader on Tue, Nov 19, 13 at 10:16
No problem posting here, I was hoping you'd find this forum since it's specific to our area. You can edit your profile on GW to include your email so that you can send and receive emails if you want to, but it's up to you. Not everyone wants to share to that extent.
I am not a fan of cottonwoods in residential yards. They can be a splendid tree in open areas, but in a neighborhood they are thugs, sending roots into other people yards. Since they are weak wooded, in storms they drop limbs. They can be very hard to get rid of, too, as they can sucker along the roots. I'd take them down while they're still small enough for you to do yourself. Tree services can get quite expensive!
It might help to look at it a different way. Instead of trying to prune a tree into fitting in the space, why not pick trees that will fit the space at maturity?
For example, your Zelkova at maturity will get 50 - 80 feet tall and be 40 - 50 feet wide. Have you given it enough room to do that? I would take down any tree within 20 feet of the Zelkova so it has room to grow naturally. You don't have to take them all down now as it's a baby and you don't know if it'll make it yet. But start planning for the ultimate size and spread of these trees. I hope I'm not sounding harsh, I want to encourage you! I'm guilty of overplanting myself and I'm gradually fixing my mistakes by making choices about which trees to keep. I hope this helps!
My 55'x55' back yard has 20 trees almost all in the 25'-35' tall range (only 13 trees if you count the 11 aspen/cottonwoods as 4 individuals). I didn't plant any of them. The yard is to the east.
On the south no trees but the neighbor's house is about 30 feet away. Both houses two stories. The neighbor has a 15' crabapple about 20 ft from our south wall. And a norway? maple about 20' high about 40' away. The crabapple gives us some shade.
The zelkova is SW of our house in the strip between our driveway and our neighbors lawn. It's about 15 ft from our garage and 25+ ft from the crabapple and not close to any other trees or buildings
Treebarb, thanks for the acknowledgement.
I totally forgot to go "one last time" before the winter set in. I did manage to snag 3 of the knock out rose bushes when they had just marked them down. They hadn't marked the other items down much so I figured I'd sit tight and wait. The trouble is I forgot altogether :(. I'm not sure what I would have gotten though, but as a gardener, it's hard to resist at full price let alone when they're highly discounted.
I too shop at the O'Tooles in Westminster.

Post Content
From taking our vital signs to conducting patient education and case management, nurses are the jack-of-all-trades in the medical field. Celebrated May 6-12, National Nurses Week is a time to recognize the contributions of the providers at the heart of our health care system. Concluding on the birthday of Florence Nightingale – the founder of modern nursing – it's also the perfect week to learn more about the profession or even consider joining the ranks of dedicated nurses.
Become a nurse in Massachusetts
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) outlines the process for becoming a board-certified nurse in the Commonwealth through specific nursing education programs. Once you've completed the necessary education, guidance for obtaining the proper licensing can also be found at the EOHHS website. Health care professionals practicing in Massachusetts may also be eligible for a special loan repayment program. Additional online nursing services include license registration, renewal, and verification.
The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Nursing regulates the rules and statutes related to both the practice and education standards of nursing in the Commonwealth. Read the board's annual newsletter to stay current with nursing topics and events. For more information on nursing regulations and organizations, visit EOHHS' nursing webpage and the Massachusetts Nurses Association website.
Speak up to improve our health care system
Nurses – and doctors – want you to be as healthy and happy as possible, so don't hesitate to ask them questions at your appointments and well visits. Give feedback to your providers about how a visit goes. If you have a particularly unsatisfying experience with a provider, file a complaint to help improve future encounters for everyone.
Nurses support us in various ways – they answer our last-minute questions, teach us how to administer medications, and assist staff during medical procedures. They help make our doctor and hospital visits go as smoothly as possible, and their incredible contributions to health care deserve a round of applause. Let's hear it for all the nurses across the nation!
We want to know about your experiences as a nurse or with the nurses in your life. Share your stories in the comments below or tweet us, @MassGov.

Turkey and tomato on wheat. Whole-grain pasta. Healthy, right? Maybe. But more and more people believe these foods are parts of a potentially disastrous trap. They claim that sluggishness and weight gain can be blamed on an insidious substance hiding in wheat and many other common grains: gluten.
Avoiding gluten has become big business. Sales of gluten-free products grew about 30 percent a year from 2006 to 2010, and will hit $3.9 billion by next year, according to the market research company Packaged Facts. Supermarket shelves are filled with gluten-free breads, soups, and cake mixes—even gluten-free ketchup and soy sauce. According to market research firm Mintel, 10 percent of new foods launched in 2010 featured a "gluten-free" claim, up from only 2 percent 5 years earlier.
NFL quarterback Drew Brees won a Super Bowl while on a gluten-free diet. Cyclist Tom Danielson, a record-breaking member of the Garmin-Transitions team, says his training and racing have improved since he and his teammates went gluten-free over a year ago.
Have most common whole grains been acting as insidious nutritional double agents all these years? Or are they essential components of a healthy diet? Let's separate the wheat from the chaff.
What is gluten, anyway? How does it affect the body?
Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, as well as in many common food additives. It's what gives dough its elasticity and baked goods their satisfying chewiness. But for people with celiac disease—a type of autoimmune disorder—eating foods that contain gluten can lead to a cascade of nasty reactions, including damage to the small intestine, poor nutrient absorption, diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, anemia, and fatigue. Celiac disease is surprisingly common, affecting about one in every 133 people, according to an often-cited 2003 study from the University of Maryland center for celiac research. There is no cure for celiac disease and no drugs that can treat it; you can only manage the condition, by sticking to a gluten-free diet for the rest of your life.
Even if you don't have celiac disease, gluten may still be bad for you, says Lara Field, M.S., R.D., a dietitian at the University of Chicago's celiac disease center. A rising percentage of people in the United States consider themselves "gluten-sensitive." "These people may have a food intolerance or experience many celiac-type symptoms after consuming foods that contain gluten," says Field. Some may have a form of wheat allergy. If you think you may have symptoms of a gluten intolerance, you can ask your doctor about scheduling a blood test to find out for sure. You can also check out The Gluten Connection, which has a simple self-test that can help you identify gluten intolerance, along with a complete eating plan that'll help you go gluten-free with ease.
Should I avoid eating gluten even if I don't have problems with it?
Gluten is also shunned by another group: People who simply think gluten encourages weight gain and who claim to feel more energetic when they don't consume it. They say humans didn't evolve the ability to digest certain domesticated grains containing gluten, and that avoiding gluten leads to more energy, better absorption of nutrients, and loss of excess weight.
Allen Lim, Ph.D., a former exercise physiologist for Garmin-Transitions, believes that going gluten-free has helped his team perform at a higher level. So does Danielson, who, like any competitive cyclist, burns—and eats—an immense number of calories and pays close attention to what seems to work. "After I started the diet, I had better results. I didn't feel as fatigued, and my recovery period was quicker," says Danielson, who puts in 6-plus hours during a typical training session.
But this is anecdotal evidence; mainstream research still hasn't substantiated the claims of those who believe gluten is bad for everyone. "There is no strong scientific evidence to support the assertion that avoiding gluten leads to benefits for the general population," says Tricia Thompson, M.S., R.D., author of The Gluten-Free Nutrition Guide and the website glutenfreedietitian.com.
Still, cutting out gluten can lead to weight loss—but not for the reason gluten-free advocates think. A strict gluten-free diet forces you to stay away from some refined carbohydrates that can lead to weight gain, Field explains. And that, she says, is where the weight-loss secret lies.
Gluten is found in many of the familiar weight-gain culprits: pizza, beer, burgers, pancakes. "Gluten itself probably isn't the reason you've packed on pounds," says Field.
"Eating too many refined carbohydrates is what expands your waistline." Commit to staying gluten-free and your food choices can become a snapshot of healthy eating—fruits, vegetables, brown rice, seeds and nuts, along with meat, fish, eggs, and milk products.
Avoiding gluten also means you're likely to adopt other whole grains and flours that lack gluten, such as buckwheat, quinoa, millet, teff, sorghum, and wild rice (which is not related to white rice). These aren't necessarily healthier options than gluten-rich wheat, barley, or rye, but consuming a wider range of grains gives you even more nutritional variety in your diet. (See "The New Power Grains," on the next page.) That's another good thing.
I need to drop pounds. Is a gluten-free diet worth a shot?
A gluten-free diet can work, but dealing with the diet's restrictions can be daunting. "You have to commit to a true lifestyle change, and that can be tough," says Edward Abramson, Ph.D., a professor emeritus at California State University at Chico and the author of Emotional Eating. "Men might be able to follow gluten-free for a short time," he says, "but without a real medical need, they might have a rough time sticking to it."
But the notion of a panacea for excess weight remains seductive, and that may be part of the appeal of the gluten-free movement, says Michael R. Lowe, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at Drexel University who specializes in nutritional approaches to weight loss. It sounds simple: If I do this one thing, then I will see the results I'm after. "That's the driving appeal of elimination diets," Lowe says.
Ironically, the boom in gluten-free products isn't necessarily helpful to those looking to lose weight. "You can buy gluten-free versions of practically every type of wheat-based food—pizza, pasta, cookies, you name it," Thompson says. But here's the catch: Healthy-sounding gluten-free items often contain just as many calories as the originals. People might overindulge in gluten-free options because they seem like "safe" foods, says Field. "People see 'gluten- free' and think they can down an entire box of gluten-free cookies with no repercussions."
So even if you stick to a gluten-free diet, it can actually lead to weight gain. A 2006 study in the American Journal of Gastroenterology followed 188 people with celiac disease (half of whom were overweight or obese) on a gluten-free diet for 2 years and discovered that 81 percent of them gained weight.
If you do give up gluten, use your new eating plan as a lens to reexamine your diet—and your life. Cyclist Danielson says, "I don't know if it was directly tied to the food, but I found that by having to pay more attention to my daily diet, I became more focused on my cycling."
Avoiding gluten takes constant monitoring—the same attention to detail you need to excel in your workouts. "I became more dedicated and took a more professional approach to my training when I went gluten-free," Danielson says. "I couldn't get lazy and down whole pizzas and bowls of pasta. I had to focus on putting better food in my body, and this made me realize how much my eating habits off the bike affected my performance on it." Mindful eating is key. After all, "you don't need to go gluten-free to avoid refined processed carbs," says Thompson. However, if you're truly concerned about gluten and your weight, find out everything you need to know by reading The Gluten Connection.

using old window frames in the garden
I've just found a source for old window frames--$5 without the glass, $10 with the glass panes intact.
How can I use these in the garden? I know I've seen some cool stuff done with them, but am not having any luck with googling for ideas.
I am looking for some to make a cold frame. Without the panes you could brush on a coat of outdoor polyurethane and make a trellis. If they are large enough you could make a folding screen. Hang one horizontally in your potting shed to use as a "pot-rack" to hold garden tools, etc. Or hang one in a porch or over your deck in the same fashoin for hanging baskets...
Thanks for the ideas! Now I am trying to formulate a way to make one into an outdoor table top...
Here is a link that might be useful: Ideas for old windows
I use frames all the time to do just that- frame something. On the side of a garden shed I will put a nice rustic wall planter and them an empty frame around it. I size the frame appropriate to the size of the planter, so the shed siding acts as the matting.
A frame placed down into the garden beds works nicely too. I have some tall grasses that a well placed frame will let the grass flow from the back through to the front of the frame.
Just play around and you'll find even more uses. I have even seem them hung between branches in trees to frame something in the background or just the blue sky.
Maybe a stained glass hung up in the trees would work too?
great ideas, all! I think I am going to use one or two as a garden gate! I'll post the pic when it's done.
Pam, I am quite a ways north of you, but if you are ever up this way, my source is at the Waldo flea market. When you pull in, you will see that there is a building with antiques (ignore that) and then several rows of booths, inside the fence. Facing the flea market as you drive in, to the left of the first two rows is a collection of junk galore. Tubs, toilets, pieces of fence, etc. When you go up to it, you will discover that it goes way, way back and there are literal tunnels of junk. This dude has some good stuff. Old lawn furniture, wooden columns, mantels, windows, doors, old doorknobs, fixtures, mirrors, etc., etc.
becca62, Thanks, I will take you up on that offer. I moved here last fall from Chicago area and I find it incredible how *few* nurseries there are here -- I guess there must be fewer serious gardeners (?). I'm sooo happy I found the Florida Gardening website to get educated and meet other gardeners who love playing in the dirt. :-))
I get my windows from the local county dump...they have a site with all the good usable stuff brought in and post pics..I've made several trips for various things. Also have gotten a few from Freecycle...I love the link you posted wanderer..talk about great ideas!!!
Here's what I did with 3 old windows. I posted them in the Garden Junk forum under Today's Project.
Here is a link that might be useful: garden windows
Wonderful ideas, everybody! I finally purchased an old wooden door for $15. The bottom half is 3 rows of 3 panes of glass, and the top is empty/open (used to be paned, as well). I'm making it into a garden gate to go under an arbor. I'll post more details later, as the project progresses.
Theresa, some other places near Waldo to visit are the Blue Star Nursery in Hawthorne (352-481-3300), south of Waldo on 301, and the Breezy Oaks Nursery (352-481-3795) outside of Hawthorne, a couple miles east of the intersection of 301 and Hwy 20, on Hwy 20. Both are lovely nurseries, but very different. Also near Waldo is the Herb Garden nursery in Melrose on Hwy 26, but I'm not sure what their hours are. You can call them at (352) 475-5475. There is also the Greathouse Butterfly Farm on Hwy 26, between Melrose and Orange Heights. http://www.greathousebutterflyfarm.com/contact.htm
Another wonderful place to visit in the area is Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' old home place, which is now a state park on Orange Lake in Cross Creek. http://abfla.com/parks/MarjorieKinnanRawlings/marjoriekinnanrawlings.html
The restaurant The Yearling in Cross Creek is absolutely stellar ( http://www.florida-secrets.com/Restaurants/ENW/Yearling.htm ), as is the Blue Water Bay Restaurant in Melrose ( http://thebluewaterbay.com/ ), where they grow their own herbs! The Friday night seafood buffet is just unbelievable. I am a very picky restuarant goer (because it is rare I find a place that can cook better than I do), and I am telling you, I've had company from Seattle and Chicago who were very impressed with the cuisine at both these places.
All these places are in east Alachua County or just over the county line in Putnam County. You wouldn't even have to go through Gainesville. If you wanted to make a weekend of it, you could find a bed and breakfast in Micanopy http://www.lanierbb.com/inns/bb7562.html or Melrose http://bed.florida-2.us/profile/FL/Melrose/4746 . Micanopy is famous for its antique shops, but I find it pricey. Quaint little town, though. Oh yeah, Crone's Cradle Conserve is in Citra, just south of Alachua County and Cross Creek, in Marion County http://www.cronescradleconserve.com/
If you wanted to make a weekend of it, and also go into G-ville, there is the Kanapaha Gardens there http://www.kanapaha.org/, and to the west, in Newberry, is Dudley Farm State Park http://www.floridastateparks.org/dudleyfarm/default.cfm , which I HIGHLY recommend! Also, a very nice B&B in G-ville, the Sweetwater Branch Inn http://www.sweetwaterinn.com/inn.html, where I used to have the most delicious lunches, until they quit opening to the public.
Have fun! (If you were to check out everything I've suggested, you'd need 3-5 days, at least!) It's a lovely area of Florida.
I don't know what your internet search skills are, and don't mean to be condescending, but if you go to yellowpages.com, you can get addresses for all these places, and then go to mapquest.com and put in those addresses and get the mileage between them.
Hope this isn't too off-topic for everyone, but also hope if anyone is ever planning a trip to Florida, it will enrich your experience.
Just wanted to share a window we did. The top panes were broken out, but the bottom panes were still in. I put screen wire behind the window and we painted the bottom panes, and I have hung it by the back door in place of a wreath. Have had lots of compliments.
