Here I would love to share with you our travels and adventures as international mushroom consultants. MEMOIRS about husband Pieter Vedder, who was a SCIENTIFIC PIONEER in Commercial Mushroom Cultivation Education. His practical handbook is in 9 languages and is called the MUSHROOM BIBLE: https://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/2020/08/modern-mushroom-growing-2020-harvesting.html

    1. Dearest Kim,
      Thank you and today I'm not wearing green either, not at all involved in anything St. Patrick's.
      Tiggy-Tiger is a real mini tiger and she is a sweetie that loves her Mami; very hyper though!
      Hugs,
      Mariette

    1. Querida Antónia,
      Muchas gracias y sí, este gatita es realmente inteligente, dulce y preciosa.
      Bueno, tal vez aún no lo sabías, pero he estudiado moda... por lo que viene de forma natural.
      Abrazos,
      Mariette

  6. I sure did, Mariette. What beautiful sweaters from Blarney Castle, the perfect shade of green, and they look warm too. Greetings to Tiggy-Tiger.

    1. Dearest Patricia,
      Yes, it was your name's day and you got connections with Ireland.
      Those sweaters were quite a find when we were there and they are of a nice cotton weight. Just perfect for the season.
      Tiggy-Tiger will feel honored and her siblings might be a tad bit jealous 😉
      Hugs,
      Mariette

    1. Dearest Christina,
      Well here they made something out of it but it is a far cry from the actual St. Patrick! All about clovers, leprechauns and their pot of gold and so on.
      Hugs,
      Mariette

      Thank you and we both like to adhere to the true meaning of Saint Patrick's Day. Not all the things invented around it...

  10. Ooohh, I love all the green that is growing in your area now! We don't see anything here that's green yet, but it should be coming. We had rain last Thursday, and more of a beneficial amount is expected tomorrow through Wednesday - finally!! I would like to see the whole jacket, it looks so beautiful with that wonderful print on it! I don't wear green as I have hazel eyes. I don't think I even have anything with green in it in my closet. Funny because my favorite color is green, ha! Hugs and blessings to you, Mariette! You look wonderful!

    1. Dearest Diana,
      Well, thank you and we sure had some green but coming back from two days in Atlanta, we noticed that all the leaves on our Japanese magnolia had turned brown from the late frost... They eventually, around June will have new leaves but it looks awful right now.
      Late frost and then rain and warm, it is so up and down. Oh, I drove back from Atlanta on Friday in horrendous rain... good for nature though.
      For seeing my whole jacket you just click on the link below my post, showing you front, side and back.
      Hugs,
      Mariette
