Just returned from UP NORTH where all was November awesome as I heard weather here was too. Let's hope it continues!<br /><br />Thanks Donna. Yes, I too find FB so easy to connect with and often fall short visiting blogs where input is so much more involved and should be viewed as a gift. All about time crunch for all ... so when it happens, it's a good thing :)<br /><br />Thanks, dear Kala ... how kind. This is a 'somewhat' healthier version of those 'deep fried' in restaurants. Good flavor ... <br /><br />Again an interesting observation, Jewel, and thanks ... always a delight sharing with you.joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-66199275560167317662011-11-06T20:15:59.382-05:002011-11-06T20:15:59.382-05:00I've learned to appreciate chrysanthemum more ...I've learned to appreciate chrysanthemum more in the past several years. I can remember when my mother and I used to go to a farm where they grew and they would dig the one we wanted... then the work began because they had to be planted right away! I don't miss that!! I also didn't realize they were tied to the "dead" until yesterday. Nice to learn something new every day. :) Anyway... enough of that... the photographs are brilliant in every way!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-38538806737605978502011-11-06T00:29:50.596-04:002011-11-06T00:29:50.596-04:00I have seen these onion blossoms in restaurants, b...I have seen these onion blossoms in restaurants, but never tasted them!

I love mums and use them in prayers, floral baths to cleanse the body and I also like to drink chrysanthemum tea. We buy dried chrysanthemum flowers and make an infusion for drinking, suppose to be good for the eyesight. We also boil the dried chrysanthemum flowers with/without sugar to make herbal drinks. Sweet chrysanthemum herbal drinks are sold in eateries and off the supermarket shelf. Fresh flowers of some varieties are edible too. <br /><br />Happy Birthday!Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-8796248299474281452011-11-04T01:34:23.392-04:002011-11-04T01:34:23.392-04:00Hi birthday buddy, Andrea :) Yes, this is my birth...Hi birthday buddy, Andrea :) Yes, this is my birthday month too so I am partial to November (especially the 13th) ... so when is yours?

I thought at first that you will be cooking mums with onions! Are you born in November? I am, so mine is topaz, which i also don't like much. I like how the mums in spray looks like but like you, I also don't like their scents. I've long been wanting to plant mums in time for the short days but haven't done it!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-23192187206463857922011-11-04T00:08:55.676-04:002011-11-04T00:08:55.676-04:00Thank you, Rick, and very interesting.

I don't know why it is that people dislike mums. Perhaps it is because they are often used poorly. I happen to like them.
