I live in Wilmington, N.C. and we have one of, the if not thee, largest garden club in the country with 350 members. This past year we have started doing a pre-meeting demo for flower arranging. I have volunteered to do the late September meeting. I have searched all over your website and blog, I've concidered doing the pumpkin cat or snail that you featured a few years back but I really should do something with flowers. Any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate your help.

We were at the BLAZE this year, and it was AMAZING! I think my favorites were the celtic knot carvings and the pirates. It was just awesome to be there. Did you happen to notice the pumpkins at the end of the trail on the way out?

I thought that was really a great little addition.

Great photos, Martha!
Halloween is a fun holiday for all ages. Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos.
My son and daughter-in-law have held a pumpkin contest for the past 10 years. Each year family and friends are invited to choose their favorite pumpkin and I would like to invite you to participate and leave them a message.

They were married a year ago and I would like to share a few photos of them on their important day.

Hi Martha
I love the Halloween pics
I just wanted to send you a little story
My 5 year old daughter Lotte has started to make our salads for dinner each night.Lotte is so proud of her efforts and last night I was telling her what a wonderful job she had done,she had made a salad man with eyes made of strawberries she had picked from our garden.Lotte was so proud of herself and said "Yes, I think Martha would really like this". I thought it would make you smile to know a little 5 year old on the other side of the world is proudly following your example.
We love your show and magazines.
