<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">i l o v e camellias</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">growing up, we had a neighbor named camellia. maybe thats why. she had a high wall in her yard and if memory serves me correctly, it was covered in flowers. camellias, perhaps.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">here are some facts about alabama's state flower from </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camellia"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">wikipedia</span></a><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">:</span><br />
<ul><li><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">they are native to eastern and southern asia, from the himalaya east to korea and indonesia</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">colors of the flowers vary from white through pink colors to red, but yellow flowers are found in just a few species </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">the japanese camellia – often simply called "the camellia" – is the most prominent species in cultivation</span></li>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">some early horticultural experiences </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">my mom made (makes) the best zucchini bread in the world. i'm pretty sure she was disguising healthy food as sweets before <a href="http://www.deceptivelydelicious.com/site/">jessica seinfeld</a> was even born. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">here's the recipe:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">3 eggs</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">3 teaspoons vanilla</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1 cup vegetable oil</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1.5 c sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1 teaspoon salt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">2 cups peeled and grated zucchini, rinsed and drained</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">3 cups flour</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1 teaspoon baking soda</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1/4 teaspoon baking powder</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">1.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Preheat oven to 325 degrees. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Grease (2) 8x4 loaf pans</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Break eggs into mixing bowl and beat well</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Beat in vanilla followed by oil & sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Stir in grated zucchini.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir into egg mixture.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">[Thoroughly stir in nuts or chocolate chips]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Divide the batter between the two greased loaf pans. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Bake in preheated 325 degree-oven for 55 minutes or until done.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Allow to stand in pans 10 minutes then remove to wire racks to cool. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">By now you're exhausted, so go enjoy a cold glass of vodka lemonade</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">i love these </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/44020803/custom-family-tree-blue"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">family trees</span></a><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> from </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/cozyblue"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">cozy blue</span></a><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">.</span> <br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">when i was home recently, <a href="http://www.joelsplaceforchildren.org/">my mom</a> and i re-read a family history written by my great uncle, eugene. it detailed the story of his grandparents (my great, great grandparents), david and nanno o'neill, both born in ireland in the 19th century. nanno was 15 when she married david, 45 - a man 30 years her senior so poor her rich family disowned her. they came to the united states with nothing- and went on to have 15 children, 11 of whom survived to adulthood. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">david lived to be 92 and nanno 65.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">interestingly, nanno's family name was also o'neill [which, saved the trouble of changing the credit cards, driver's license etc when they married]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">the <a href="http://www.araltas.com/features/oneill/">coat of arms for o'neill clan</a> of ireland shows a bloody hand and legend says an o'neill once cut off his hand and threw it ashore to beat another explorer to a claim. [which i'm certain was a pair of louboutins and a tiffany necklace for his wife's birthday]</span>beth.stellato@hotmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17831568052552479564noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-623510554344520311.post-11457542922161136392010-05-09T03:41:00.001-04:002010-05-09T03:41:00.178-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_teOo9E1ZxDY/S8tgYGBvXnI/AAAAAAAAADs/rQXpxHg4gcQ/s1600/232323232%257Ffp63259%253Enu%253D3265%253E472%253E785%253EWSNRCG%253D344294368%253A32%253Bnu0mrj.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_teOo9E1ZxDY/S8tgYGBvXnI/AAAAAAAAADs/rQXpxHg4gcQ/s320/232323232%257Ffp63259%253Enu%253D3265%253E472%253E785%253EWSNRCG%253D344294368%253A32%253Bnu0mrj.jpg" wt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">happy mother's day! i love you mom</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
