I have some bulbs that are a nice yellow and I don't know the name of them. Is there a good website that I can look at that has photos of flowering bulbs? Any suggestion would be appreciated. The photo attached is the flower I am...

EmTeeBee Definitely a freesia. They are also my favourite flower. I love the evenings when the air is filled with their heady perfume. Sensational little bulb. They are quite happy to naturalise themselves and will come up year after year in the garden without much...

you were exiled away from your home country. My top three would be : 1. Tea (as in cups of); 2. Driving on the left; 3. The English countryside.

EmTeeBee The wide open spaces, vegemite sandwiches made with frest white bread, the smell of lemon scented gum leaves on the evening air.

I always knew that about her, because she was always doing some strange things? I said it about a month ago, I thought this girl is off her Rocker, No really she just needs help. What do you think about here. first I thought Oh,...

EmTeeBee I, too, say bravo butterfly. Let the poor girl get the care and medical attention she so desperately needs without the constant scrutiny from the paparazzi. Certainly along with celebrity comes the media attention, but it's all gone too far. The media coverage...

What is with some people's need to share the horror stories of their labour? Strangers seem comfortable sharing the most uncomfortable details with you, regardless of how little they know you. I can understand the common thread of...

EmTeeBee Great advice, mommynews. Your labour - your way. I agree that it's also important to keep that open mind, and keep those options open. My 2 deliveries were very, very different. What worked for one definitely did not work for the other. At the end of the day,...

I am what many people would describe as a people person, but twice in my life now I have taken an instant dislike to a person for no reason at all (which is unlike me I usually accept people of face value until proven otherwise),...

EmTeeBee Absolutely agree. If we were all a bit more self aware, and listened to our unconscious thoughts, we might just have an easier path through life. I also believe in what goes around comes around. There has to be some Karmic retribution for those who make life...

EmTeeBee I do think it's human nature - to seek out and share common experiences with others. It's the basis of so much human interaction, from support groups through to book clubs! I think there is merit in this. What I found uncomfortable was the unsolicited advice...

EmTeeBee What an eloquent way to put it. This describes it perfectly. My mother in law was a big advocate for taking it all with a grain of salt!

I really like this program and try not to miss it. I like the detective Bobby (Vincent D. Onofrio). I like his style. He reminds me a lot of the character Columbo. But a bit different. I think that Eve (Katherine Erbe) who plays...

EmTeeBee Interestingly enough, he also played the giant alien cockroach in the first Men In Black movie. Anyone who can carry off that role has to have some ability!

I do not as much as I should. I'm a bit paranoid of "catching" something while donating although I know this is a remote possibility. But I feel its something as many people as possible need to do. Never know when us or a family...

EmTeeBee I'm back. Mission accomplished. I'm booked in again for May. It's a nice feeling to think I have just made it possible for someone to get the help they need if they need it.

Sometimes we work very hard to achieve something. After achieving it, we often move to the next event. I think we should always reward ourself each time we achieve or complete a certain activity or event. A reward could be...

EmTeeBee Wise words. Valuing ourselves is one of the hardest lessons to learn. If we are to understand other people, we must be grounded in ourselves.

EmTeeBee People come into our lives for a reason, just as we come into theirs for a reason. Perhaps that's the life-lesson that you are meant to teach her? Sometimes it's not until many years later that the "reason" becomes clearer.

EmTeeBee You're welcome. I'm so glad they have never taken To Kill a Mockingbird out of circulation! That's my all time favourite, at least twice a year I read it. (Hated the movie incidentally, as the character of Scout was ruined!)

What, in your opinion is the best thing about camping? Do you like the camp fire, the hiking, or do you bring your bike and go biking. I love the peacefully way everyone is, especially at night. The kids are exhausted and sleep...

EmTeeBee Well, there's no shortage of spectacular places to camp over here! The only time, so far,that I have been to Canada was in the dead of winter! (A big shock for someone from Oz) and I can't wait to return to see your beautiful country in spring, summer or...

EmTeeBee Did you know that "A Wrinkle in Time" is now out of print? I have been trying to get a copy of it so my son can read it. I read it in high school and loved it, too.

I normally use sticky tabs for pictures and stuff, but some of the ribbons I have are thin or see-through, and I can't use those. What do you use?

EmTeeBee Hi Razybabe - where did you get your Xyron machine? It sounds like a fantastic little piece of equipment. I'm a big fan of anything that makes the job more professional!
