J Yee smart chick says:smoky,
what a fun Pick, love how you’ve mixed the green snakeskin w/ other spring colors, hopefully no real snakes in your garden!!!

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:Smoky Rose Chick, how could you say that? Snakes in my garden when I have to go finish putting in my bedding plants!
I really like the pinks w/ the aquamarines, and am liking the bronzite more, too. I think the picks are opening my eyes to new “likes”.
On Apr 27, 2009 at 10:19 am #
Smoky Rose says:Thanks Harriet! this is similar to something I made for my mom (snakeskin+aqua+bronzite+aventurine) – I just added some pinks.
Think NOT about the snakes – I am so running out of title ideas….this one was lame and creepy, but it means nothing
I found shedded snake skins in my garden – there out there. It is best that I don’t see them, otherwise I’ll never get off the porch again!

Shannon aka Silly Chick says:Oh, come on Smoky! You’re not afraid of a little ‘ol snake are you? Just kiddin’! But really, the garden kind are so not dangerous and wouldn’t hurt you even if you picked them up! I loved our snakes in Florida – and we had a lot of ‘em! Even Coral snakes (very venomous, but with teensie little fangs) – the garden snakes came in beautiful colors and patterns (google Ribbon snake) – a joy to look at! Just another part of nature!
Happy – Not to worry, they sense vibrations of your footsteps and scurry away so fast you never know they’re there!

Smoky Rose says:I know, I know…. growing up, outside Chicago, our home backed up to an old, abandon corn field – and it was fullll of snakes. Garden snakes. my brother would pick them up and drape them over his arms. In woods here, we have some ‘bad’ snakes, but just simple garden snakes in the yard – they….. sceeve me out. I still garden – but ew – I just really hope not to run into any. Moved a big planter last year from one side of the patio to the other – I think mom must have layed eggs in the drip pan – it was like a freaking horror movie – all these itty bitty snakes – like medusa was hanging out under there or something…. yeah, if it has to be moved this year, my better half can do it.

Karen H aka Fancy Chick says:I hate snakes! But love the splashes of color you put in this pick.
On Apr 27, 2009 at 6:15 pm #
Smoky Rose says:thanks KPH! seems like only Shannon is a fan of snakes. I respect Gods little beings – just from a distance.
On Apr 27, 2009 at 7:02 pm #
Shannon aka Silly Chick says:Smoky – LMAO!!! I can just see your face twisted in abject horror looking into the drip pan squirming with babies! Don’t mean to laugh…well, yeah, I kinda do – but in a nice way!! That WOULD be creepy! But I’d be running for my camera!
And, NO…I will not change my name to “Creepy Chick”!!!:)HAHAHA…

Smoky Rose says:that’s good, Anita considered it, I said, no way.
ok, I’m a bit of a dork – what is LMAO – oh! I got it! I like that! a lot!
I’m LMAO!

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:I finished the gardening w/out seeing any snakes. This is a good thng because we get rattle snakes out here. I even found a baby one in my garage last winter. We think it came in to escape the cold, but my cat got it! Not a big one at all, but still CREEPY! Always have to watch out in our gardens because the snakes come to water. Snakes are OK outside and away from my house.
On Apr 27, 2009 at 7:37 pm #
Smoky Rose says:Harriet – about that visit to your house – no offense, I may take a rain check….
Shannon will come, though!
Glad you got your gardening finished snake-free!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 7:39 pm #
Shannon aka Silly Chick says:Rattle snakes are different…I don’t care to tangle with them at all…and TX is covered up with’em! Always watch around threshholds outside; they blend in pretty well – But thankfully aren’t anxious to meet’n greet! Glad the planting went well! And I agree, snakes outdoors, not in!!!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 7:40 pm #
Shannon aka Silly Chick says:Yep – ain’t skeered!!! Smoky, you just tickle me to pieces!!!!

Mommykat Bubbly Chick says:My son wants a snake, but I told him he has to have good grade & a clean room to get one. I’m safe awhile yet. lol
On Apr 27, 2009 at 7:49 pm #
Shannon aka Silly Chick says:It’s all fun and games until he says “Hey, Mom…Have you seen my snake?” Not good…But then again, they don’t poo or pee on the floor. they don’t keep the neighbors up barking all night…Wait, who’s side am I on?

Mommykat Bubbly Chick says:yuck

I’ll be a good Chickie!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 8:22 pm #
Smoky Rose says:Shannon, I’m not even going to respond to your last comment. You’re going to get us both in trouble, Funny Chick will punish us, and LB – God forbid what they might do to us!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 8:23 pm #
Smoky Rose says:you’ve just gotta settle down and go have your chili dogs (without us) mom always said not to eat in front of people unless you had enough to share!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 8:24 pm #
Mommykat Bubbly Chick says:No more underwear? LMAO! I know what yuo meant, but funny!
On Apr 27, 2009 at 8:25 pm #
Smoky Rose says:Bubbly, Shannon is out of control – while she’s eating, we can talk here –
not sure a good influence…….

Mommykat Bubbly Chick says:I hear you… but she is so funny!
