Cash Gifts

I like folding the bills into these Origami Shirts. We've found that cash is always a welcome gift, and the shirt shape makes it more interesting and fun to receive.

Lawn & Garden Care

Anyone with a Green Thumb? A degree in earthy stuff? Or any great knowledge of gardening/ yard work? I'm sure I'm not the only one with these issues, so I am asking a few questions and hopefully I can get some "master gardener" advice.
1. What do you use to control/ kill Morning Glory?
2. How do you "prepare" your vegetable garden for next year? Compost? Soil?
3. When is the best time to plant trees? I've heard so many mixed answers to this question from local nurseries, so I hope that someone has "tested" it and really knows!
Oh, I have so many more questions, but these are the TOP ones I have right now.
Anyone?
