Odds and Ends

Odds and Ends - Miscellaneous items, fragments and remnants, as in I've finished putting everything away, except for a few odds and ends. This expression may have originated as odd ends in the mid-1500s, meaning "short leftovers of some material" (such as lumber or cloth). It had acquired its present form and meaning by the mid-1700s. - The American Heritage® Dictionary of Idioms by Christine Ammer. Copyright © 1997 by The Christine Ammer 1992 Trust.

Priscilla said...: I meant columbine, that lovely blue.
How is the pin oak that was damaged? And the white oak? And the crepe myrtle?

Your azaleas are very full. Aren't they hard to keep looking well year after year? I have found so.

Any vegetable garden planned?; May 1, 2009 at 9:58 AM
Priscilla said...: Hey ho! Let's have some pictures of your garden, Lana. I know you're doing veggies as usual. Please?; June 17, 2009 at 12:42 AM
