Memories of childhood

we sure did, we used to pretend that fushsia flowers were ear rings lol

I Never had any Passion Flower Ballerinas :(

Hahaha... That's a good one too Irish !

aw jacque

Sorry to hear that Jacque.... well it's never too late to start...lol. Maybe you can pass the idea along to some future grandchildren someday !

:) Great idea ! iv a Passion Flower in MY GARDEN i can share your memorys Ladys :)X

I know ,I know, ...if it doesn't move,walk, talk, and play all by itself, the children today, don't know what to do with them...it's sad...no imagination is needed with toys anymore !!

There you go Jacque ..!.You can even tell alittle fib and say you did, they will never know, and we certainly won't tell, will we Irish !

lol mums d word flcrazy

I did teach my Kids how 2 Fire Grass Seed heads like Bullets & play Grass like a Whistle between your thumbs lol :)

Lord.. now you are bringing back all kinds of memories Jacque, I'll sleep with a smile on my face tonight ! Thanks !

My sound was more a PPPPLLLLURGggggggggggggg than a Whistle flcrazy lol :D

It all works in my world Jacque, any sound we could make was a funny sound..lol. Gotta run and feed the dogs, think I will pick a blade of grass along the way.......smiles.!

Have Fun Flcrazy :)

I was thinking it looked like a little ballerina. Lovely. We used hollyhock with a toothpick for arms. This passionflowers is more fancy than our country bumpkins...lol. :-)

We didn't have passion flowers either Jacque. Far too exotic. We used to make daisy chains, put buttercups under the chin to see if we liked butter????, and have jars of water with rose petals in trying to make perfume, but it never worked.

Happy memories. I have lots of them. - I feel quite nostalgic now. : )
Best wishes, Hywel.

Thanks Chris and Greenthumb, for sharing your memories too, I remember, (with my mom's help), braiding daisies into a crown to wear on our heads, we pretended to be princesses or pretended it was our wedding day. Man...,if I knew then what I know now....hahaha. These were the good ole days before reality set in....lol.

lol Flcrazy,,,,,,,,, does of reality setting in there, quick out to the garden and start looking for daisies

If only it it could be that easy, Irish...lol. Unfortunately once reality catches up with you, you have a terrible time trying to give it the slip ! I know, I've tried on many occasions....lol. Where's that darn Peter Pan when you need him anyway.... ! hehehe
