"No soup for you!!"

tsgirl01 Hi miamilady, this is a good question. Personally, I tend to let things be in the outside world. When it comes to family and friends, that is another matter. I stick up for them when they are right. I do not like to see people being picked on or gossiped about...

Poinsettia Plant

Grandmaof2 @Grandmaof2 (7579) • Canada 2 Dec 07

Is there anyone out there that feels the same way I do? I absolutely hate poinsettia plants. I always thought they were poisonous but they said on TV yesterday that they are not at all poisonous. I still don't like them at all.
