How I keep fresh cut flowers for weeks/ What we ate for supper/ Homemade Hot Roll Mix for Pantry

Miss Lori, I am almost 82. Today I am sitting at my kitchen table with my iPad and tea and it feels like you are right here with me as you put away your dishes and then stop and talk, just feels like you are right here. Thank you for visiting with me today. I have lost two husbands and a son. One husband when we were 42 died of a massive heart attack. Then our 41 year old son died the same way and he was only 41. Then my dear second husband died in 2010 of cancer. I still have a daughter and granddaughter and I am blessed. I am enjoying my life. I don’t travel but I do enjoy people like you on You tube. Some pain but I don’t dwell on that. Many struggles, but I thank the Lord each morning for how He blesses me. Sending many blessings to you and Mr. Brown. ❤😊

And they walk and work puzzles and participate in the physical activities and laugh and have a good time! I just wanted to thank you for sharing your experience and time with me. XOXO

My home is just a little mountain home stuck back in the woods and hills of southern Appalachia in N Ga. Thats all I need and want! My health ain't to good but the Lord keeps me and thats all I need. I wrote down your Recipe and hopefully my Daughter will help me make some Hot Rolls. I love them! Thank you Mr Brown for your song! I absolutely loved hearing you sang! I loved this video so much!

[@sandrataylor3723]

Seeing Zinna's in your garden brought back memories of my grandmother in Alabama that would have a bed of flowers in either side of the front of her house every year. I remember Zinnas and lantana. I can't remember the names of the rest. I would pick the lantana and use them as bouquets for my Barbie dolls. This was back in the 60's and sorely miss staying with my grandparents every summer when school was out. My grandfather would take me down to the Flint River and we'd catch a mess of fish, come back home and clean them, then I help my granny cook them. Great memories. It's amazing how our memories are triggered by something as beautiful as a flower.

Hi Miss Lori: I always look forward to your new videos, I just love seeing you in your cute little kitchen! I am 66 and was an RN for 22 years. I retired early to take care of my Mom who then passed away 5 years ago. I just lost my only sibling, my dear sister Cindi, only 2 months ago. It was totally unexpected and sudden and it really gutted me. She was my best friend and the last person in my immediate family, other than my daughter, who lives in Italy with her military husband. It is very easy to become depressed and down, but I thank the Lord that I have my amazing daughter, several very supportive friends and wonderful neighbors. I also find joy and strength in sewing and crocheting for several charities. I know no matter how bad things seem, there is always someone else who is in worse shape and less fortunate than me. Sending love to you and Mr. Brown

My sister was a florist. She would take the flowers and cut the bottom of the stems off. If they have a woody stem she would smash it too. Then they last, but you do need to change the water daily and about every 3 days trim the stems again. I’ve had my grocery store cut flowers last 2-3 weeks depending on the flowers. I will try your mixture. I might could keep them a month 💕. I love cut flowers so much.
