I'll have to go check my tag after! They sure are gorgeous, aren't they!! So cool that you got that white spider in the shot as well. I would have shrieked in horror, I'm terrified of spiders! lol Your irises are also beautiful but as you say, they don't last near long enough. It seems 2 or 3 days and that's it. <br /><br />Great idea about the onions! Having a job I guess you learn all kinds of shortcuts in the kitchen since you don't have much time:-) <br /><br />Hope you're enjoying your weekend, raining again here but supposed to get sunshine tomorrow! After 5 days of rain, I'm ready for the sun's return:-) xoxoCarole Buranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497329055251626140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-87295700174503919472011-06-25T00:09:37.617-04:002011-06-25T00:09:37.617-04:00Awesome close ups!

I guess I'll be outside doing some work!<br />I do think you could freeze them just chopped up, but I guess cooking them first helps later on. I just keep buying them when I need them.Diannehttp://www.diadsie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-64107234893904968912011-06-24T22:22:01.484-04:002011-06-24T22:22:01.484-04:00Your close up flower photos are just beautiful.

You need to blow them up and frame them.<br />So why do you cook the onions to freeze them?Osage Bluff Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221434879848622632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-85384614111154709922011-06-24T19:43:51.179-04:002011-06-24T19:43:51.179-04:00Those Vidalia onions used to be my son's favor...Those Vidalia onions used to be my son's favorite fried with butter and salt (probably not so healthy). Good reminder about buying them now and freezing a batch sliced and cooked in butter!<br /><br />I love that combination of the irises and the smoke bush.<br /><br />EileenGatsbys Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04228978705943696143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-81754467807115174402011-06-24T19:17:26.236-04:002011-06-24T19:17:26.236-04:00Thanks,Cher.
