I'm with Aaron we always called them lozengers as well😀
Ludens lozenges started that. After that we all called them cough drops.
We call them lozengers too😮
same for us!
This week has been especially difficult for me because of illness, the sudden loss of friends and missing family members. There will always be days where things weigh us down and the light seems dim. Laura, you & Aaron need to know how much peace you bring to my day and you somehow make my world a brighter place. We all deal with despair and grief but I also know that with morning comes the light. Sometimes it just helps to have a gentle pour of good...that's what you do; you pour some good into my day. Thank you.
Love you guys, but not everyone will be with their families on Christmas and could use your cheer!
I was going to say the same thing!! And at the end of a busy day the others who will be busy otherwise can end their day with a relaxing Laura video! 🥰
I call a couch A SOFA…… MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR ❤❤❤
Agree, I have no family and Christmas will be a lonely day.
@@saraw8503 best wishes to you!
I'm celebrating before and after Christmas with family, but the hubs will be working on Christmas day. I'd love to watch a recap and "celebrate" with ya'll.
“You started out our marriage with just being wrong” I cackled pretty hard at that one. My hubby and I have had similar conversations (rod iron vs wrought iron) 😅
Pretty quick cut there! hehe
I laughed long and loud when Laura said that! Their banter just cracks me up!
My husband called it “pig stein” instead of pig sty and the first time I heard that I cracked up.
@@MoniqueARuiz omg that’s hilarious!
Anyone else after seriously considering if they could met anyone alive who would they meet start laughing realizing the person they’d want to meet is Laura?
Laura or Celine Dion or Barbara Streisand or any of the First Ladies!
She’s definitely top ten for me. How could you not leave with a big ol smile on your face after lunch and coffee with Laura?
I am afraid if I met someone who I thought I wanted to meet, then I did meet them and they turned out to be big jerks I would be so disappointed. My life would change because 1 meeting with that person.
I myself would rather be doing a project or antique shopping with Laura, because I too, hate forced talking while staring at each other.
@@suzenbickford4330 ditto!!
We just call them cough drops!!! Much easier to say! Lol I would love a video on Christmas Day! Also would love to see how Benjamin decorated the mantle!
Aaron, I love your gentle spirit. I bet your parents are proud of you and your children must adore you.
We live in a beautiful area in New England and YoYoMa has a vacation home here. During Covid he would suddenly appear at various sites or schools to just play spontaneously and lift spirits. Always loved him but his status certainly was elevated after that.
I also live in New England and I've had the opportunity to work with him twice - he's absolutely delightful! Easy to talk to and so, so funny. And I also loved the "Songs of Comfort" series he did during Covid.
So interesting! As always, the banter was the best part. I love the mutual support: Laura praising Aaron's management and conversational skills.
Yeah. And got a chuckle with "conversating" vs "conversing." Laura and Aaron always start my day with a smile! 🎄
I’d love to have a recap video on Christmas ❤
The pronunciation of things has always been a fun part of our language. My sister in law was from Massachusetts and she said things like davenport, bureau, pocketbook verses my couch, dresser, purse. We would get to chuckling on many occasions. Feel better soon Aaron!
We care! If you post we will watch! If you take the weekend off, we’ll still love you! God Bless!
Well said - agreed!!!
Laura and Aaron, thank you for getting me through another rough year! I feel like I say this every year, but that's just the way my life has been since, well.....forever. This year I lost my mom on September 1st after 5 very hard weeks on hospice, and lost my mother in law December 2nd, after a very hard month on hospice. You're still here, day after day to bring a little cheer!! ❤️❤️
Aww, that IS hard! I’m sorry, I hope you have some support around you.
My parents called them lozengers, also.
I'm 72 and grew up in Pennsylvania. I think that's what everyone said. My husband never corrected me, even after we married. I think I was in my 30's and had a sore throat and FINALLY read the tin..Lozenges!!! How funny. I hope you feel better, Aaron 👍
Merry Christmas to you all♥️
OMG I'm also 72 live in PA and I always said lozenges. MERRY Christmas
@@lindaga820 I grew up in Greensburg
Lol just the funny opening of garden answer that I needed. Love getting to know you and Aaron’s humor. 😂 thanks for the laughs, I needed them.
my daughter used to give every little person like toy a personality, a different voice. She is 26 now and spent years in theater and is now in grad school to be an Art Therapist....you never know but it's a sweet thing to have an imaginative child
Get well soon Aaron. My famous person/persons would be Aaron and Laura for sure! I could spend hours walking your gardens and chit chatting while sipping on cold coffee. Definitely in the summer though.
Laura, I think we need a video of Coctails and Christmas Carols with you, mom and sister … it would be awesome!!!!
Yeah!
Yessss!!! Laura play your baby grand piano. Please!!!
I grew up saying lozengers. I now say cough drop.
I love learning how different areas say things. I remember very well when I realized that I said something that none of my friends knew.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Cough drops🥰
Sorry to tell you, Aaron, memory does fade with time. I asked my Dr. the same question and he said, yep, it goes. I find Post It notes put in the exact place when you want to remember something to be very helpful, lol.
Exactly! My doctor suggested the book "Brain on a String", and that was one of the suggestions. Great book. I keep gold post its and a pen in the living room, kitchen, and bedroom. If it's gold, I know it's something I need to remember. If I need to bring it to another room, I stick it to my phone! 😂
@@susanhale5232 Great idea to stick it to your phone! I'll try and remember that, lol.
Hello Laura and Aaron. Your baby girl may have had a "night terror." My daughter had them, and the screaming was alarming. All I could do was hold her and reassure that everything was okay. She's in her 20's now and doesn't remember them. Anyway, Happy holidays! 🌲
Just go back and view the seed saving video and you will know what is in each jar so now you can accurately label them! 🥰. Merry 🎄 Christmas! Love your videos.
With the baby, she could have had a night terror, one of my twins had them and we ended up at the ER once bc it lasted over an hour. One thing you should always check is their little toes bc a thread from their socks or a hair can wrap around a toe and cause a lot of pain… just throwing out a couple ideas. But sounds like a night terror to me, poor pumpkin. Love this channel and you guys!! Been a dedicated watcher for years, congratulations on all of your success.
I agree with the night terror senerio, my son had them around the age of 1 . Heartbreaking for parents to not be able to console them or know what's happening. I never thought of hair wrapped around their toes , good info .BTW , same said son will be 31 tomorrow!!!
My granddaughter had night terrors. Ugh! They are so awful! You’re not supposed to try to communicate with them during the episode. I’m glad that’s behind us!
When my daughter had night terrors at around two or so, I would hug her close and take her to the kitchen and give her a sip of cold water, which would wake her just enough that she would realize she was with mommy, and then I’d put her back to bed. She would wake at around 11:30 every night, and it lasted for months. When I would talk to her she wouldn’t reply and she seemed as though she wasn’t actually awake, but crying in her sleep. Long time ago now.
Laura seems like an introvert to me so am I welcome to the club
Good morning! 🌻 For the seeds that aren't labeled, I would just plant them in seed trays in your green house. Once they start growing, you'll be able to ID what they are. I would also put the jar behind each tray that you sow, so as soon as you know what they are, you can label the jar. Easy peasy!
Great idea! Or label the jar & tray #1, 2, 3 etc
Reading “A Christmas Carol” every year is a tradition for me, and Scrooge’s assistant is Bob Cratchet… LOL
Aaron, I say lozenger too! Hope you feel better.
Merry Christmas!
☕️🎄Good morning to all GA Friends and Laura and Aaron. So happy to have this day off from my retail job and the continuing Holiday rush of shoppers to spend a warm moment with you all. It’s freezing here in Michigan with a dusting of snow, but your humor and fun recap are a welcome start to the day. Would love to see you all on Christmas Day! In the meantime Merry Christmas and blessed Holiday wishes to everyone 🤶🏻❤️🎄❄️🎁❤️
Thank you retail worker for all you do. Merry Xmas, and yes, I’d also love to see a Sunday video.
Ask Ken if he doesn’t mind getting t 2:40 he video ready…we sure would watch it later in the day.
One day in private family mode we all can handle that now can’t we??? Let’s give them some space their so dedicated to the GA community it the least we can give back. Merry Christmas to all and a very Prosperous New Year🎄🎄🎄❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰🥰🥂🥂🥂🥂
A president. Interesting. Appreciate your wording.
Just moved to a home with an 1.5 acres. Beautiful trees framing the property. Excited to fill in the middle!
How exciting! Congratulations! I don’t know you, or your property, but gardeners just get excited for other gardeners !
Aaron you are sooooooo adorable! I have the same situation tho. My Mom always called a "paring" knife a "perry" knife. I was literally 25 before I heard others calling it "paring". Since my dear Mother was very hard of hearing I knew immediately that she obviously had heard it wrong and I needed update my pronunciation. Merry Christmas you two
8:32 Little Prince has a “Garden Answer Box” for $99 How exciting! 🙌🏻
A video on Christmas Day would be a special gift, but please…take the time off that week, and enjoy your family and friends. I’m sure Ken would appreciate an extra day off too. Merry Christmas to you both and all your team!
In Australia our packets of Lozenges are marked as such as it’s the plural. We don’t say “I need to buy a packet of lozenge” 🙂, but we also pronounce the word as though it had an “r” following the e & prior to the s
Love ALL your videos but you’ve really piqued my curiosity regarding the “new entrance”! Can’t wait to hear about it.
We call it Mayhaw jelly here in the southeast. It’s a type of Hawthorn tree that grows naturally down here (I live in north Florida). A lot of people from here call them wild persimmons, they do look like little persimmons.
Also, everyone looks at me silly when I say that coffee doesn’t taste the same out of a thermal mug as it does in a porcelain cup. I will use the thermal mug if I’m heading out but if I’m at home I don’t use them. 💜 it’s validating to hear someone else say it. 😂😂😂
I also do not like coffee in a thermal cup.
100% on the mug. Ceramic for the win.
Lol! I love Benjamin! He so reminds me of my youngest son and all the Lego people! They were always everywhere, the jungle of potted plants, his little voice narrating and doing the voices! What a blessing! Enjoy ❤️😃
Have you considered a formal herb knot garden (perhaps, by the Hartley)?. Teucrium, lavender, and other herbs that are evergreen in your zone. I would love to see how a knot garden is planned, planted, pruned, and maintained.
Yes we all care an we will watch no matter what!!!
Happy Holidays to all of you at Garden Answer! ❄️✨🌲
Oxford English Dictionary says a variant spelling, “lozenger” (pronounced LAH-zin-jer), is present in the US and northern England.
Oh an evergreen trimming video! Yes PLEASE. I know I need to do this to my younger evergreens but I’m afraid I will do it wrong.
Laura, you are a project oriented person. Don’t beat yourself up. Being one myself even though I love my family and friends very much sometimes they get neglected because of my ongoing projects.
Same!! Glad to know I’m not the only one!!
📺 GA comes on at 5am here. So I typically get to watch you while the house is still quiet, and everybody is still sleeping. It's my morning routine to snuggle up with a cup of coffee and watch GA before I get up and start my day. I would love it if you did a recap on Christmas morning. 🎄 It would be like your Christmas gift to all your viewers. 😊
Great recap today! Praying that Aaron will get the rest he needs and soon will be feeling strong again. Am really loving all the shorts you have been sharing on Facebook. Sooo sweet! Hugs from N.C.❤️
I love the way you both talk to each other in front of the camera. You bounce ideas and information off each other. It helps me to learn! Thank you for being so real!! Love you both and really look forward to the recap videos!
I once worked for a man who owned a Sheraton Hotel. In a conversation we had he said we remember less because we have more to remember.
I would love to meet French chef Jacques Pepin. Happy 87th birthday to him today. ❤️
May you, your family and viewers have a festive holiday season - 👍👏🎉🎄😊
Hi Laura
I believe you are fatigued. You work so hard. Some people decorate the outside and not the inside. No matter. Your mind is full. A restful, guilt free Christmas to you Aaron and your family🎄🐧🎄🐧🎈💝💝
We live in Pittsburgh PA (Zone 6b) and have a greenhouse that doesn't get heated in the winter at all. We moved into our house and there was already a fig tree in the ground of the greenhouse. Every year it loses its leaves but it comes back so well each spring. It's huge and doesn't mind the freezing temps.
Oooo! Mystery! What is the gate idea? Now I can’t wait to find out. 💚💚💚
Nice Laura! ..... A Hartley Botanic 'Abutting Greenhouse' ..... Is Exactly What Your Mother Envisioned For Her Own Home.
I Hope Susan's Dream Comes True Soon, For Both Of Your Parents Are Certainly Deserving Of Its Pleasure.
Re: labeling jars... my quickie solution is always scotch tape and a sharpie. Fold one end of tape over for easy removal. Helps with freezer food too!
Please take some extra time for Christmas, so much fun while the children are young 🌲🌲🌲
Yes!!! We need a Christmas video!! Lol
I agree whole heartedly. That would be such a treat on Christmas morning.
Loved Aaron’s response on the celebrity question. Very diplomatic.
0:34 YES, I’ll be looking forward to a Christmas video for sure!
for the now mystery seeds, why not label the jars with numbers, and do a seed-test? label the rows with the corresponding numbers, and you'll probably start recognising some if not most (or even all) of the plants as they start growing. if you start now, you might have some of them figured out by the time it's actually time to start your seeds?😊
Or rewatch the video where she put them in the jars.
Btw, our Church, UMC in Southlake Texas, had a series “A Weary World Rejoices”! ⛪️ Your display is beautiful❣️
Also, I’m with you on the coffee cups. I have some Corelle cups that are old and discolored but I won’t replace them because they’re not making thin rimmed cups these days. My husband teases me and loves his thermal mug. 😉 I enjoy your videos so much!
Merry Christmas to you all! 🤶🎄🎅🏻
I had the best experience with little prince plants. Would order from them again!
Evergreen pruning video? Yes!! I have a Dwarf Alberta Spruce that is a little misshapen and I'd love to be advised how to correct/mitigate it. Oh, and a Christmas morning with a recap video? Well, that would be just like Christmas.🎁❤🎄
Merry Christmas Garden Friends!
“Whisper it to me” 😂😂😂. Thank you both for being so good natured and respectful of each other. You two truly display the character of loving people without compromising who you are to please others. And I love that you couldn’t think of a famous person you’d like to meet- no need to idolize anyone because you are secure in who God made you to be. And that is inspiring! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you, your family, and all involved with Garden Answer. I watch all the videos but I don't tend to comment on things. Thank you for sharing so much with us. I've gardened all my life, but I learn things every season. It's such a rewarding activity for me. Anyway, God bless you all!
I love your TH-cam name! 33 & 333 have always been “my” number:). I see them so very often & there is a special message behind them when I do notice them. Anyway, just wanted to say hello. Merry Christmas to you & your family & friends! 🎄
Please do a video sharing your interior home Christmas decor. I missed that last year and love getting ideas from you!
Not everyone has families to be with on Christmas so I think your video will be a nice comfort ❤️
Merry Christmas and wishing you a happy day that day.
My husband's family always called a Piggy Bank a "Penny Bank" so he's always called it the wrong thing too. About 10 years into our marriage when we had kids that were old enough to start a Piggy Bank he said the wrong thing in front of me and we called his parent's too. So funny. :)
Oh in a heartbeat- meeting Laura -yes please
Yes, our neighbors pet cats attack the wild birds on our bird feeders…have taken many cardinals! They hide out under our Japanese maple tree & our front porch deck. The cats are mostly active in the spring , summer & early Fall. We are now having hawks flying in snatching up mice & rabbits on our landscape & land.
Are you going to do a Christmas tour of yours and your moms house ? Would love to see both house with there trees and Christmas decorations please
You inspired me to finally get a birdbath heater! Such a great investment!
Me too. Hoping the birds and my bees will use it.
Those cute gourds with the gold leaf kinda give the appearance of pears. So cute!
Lol, I am from Houston Tx, and we called them Lozengers too! I thought it was a southern thing!!! Recently I told my daughter we should pick up some lozengers before winter sets in, and she looked at me in horror, I said you know cough drops and she said read the box!!! Either was it the OLD cough medicine, you know the one with alcohol in it, blurred our vision, or we too sick to care to say it properly, who kmows but, you made me laugh this morning! Hope you get to feeling better Aaron!
The porch would be a great spot for painting and making handmade gifts when the kids are older. The wonderful light in there
Hi Laura and Aaron! Aaron ~ I hope you are feeling better! This was a fun recap! Thank you so much for sharing!
I think a vintage library catalog would be so cute for seed storage! Would be pretty in the cut flower shed!
I know my answer to what celebrity I'd meet, it'd be you Laura! It'd be an honor to meet you! I'm an ag ed major with a hort minor and have learned so much from you that I will be able to pass on to my students one day!
100% we called them lozengers too! In fact I had no idea what replacement Laura was going to come up with😊You are not alone Aaron! Hope you are feeling better soon.
Merry Christmas to your precious family, as well! Have you ever thought how many families you touch with your up beat personalities? Then think about all the projects you inspire that are spread all over the world! What a bright world this is because of your influence and inspiration. Thank you!, Laura and Aaron!
Merry Christmas GA and all the GA family!
My daughter had an episode like that after a nap, and we’ve wondered if she had a nightmare. The only thing that brought her out of it was rocking in the rocking chair together. ❤
My daughter too. I wonder the same thing.
Oh boy...I'm realising I have missed half of this week's videos! Been a busy week with Christmas activities at school. I have some catching up to do! 🙂🎄
Bob Cratchet
Thank you! I, also, could not remember his name.
I really love these videos so much. I love to just feel like I'm chatting in a conversation with you both like we're neighbors. Thank-you so much for sharing your thoughts with us all. Merry Christmas to you and your whole family!
I think it would be appreciated if you chose to post the videos over the Christmas holiday. Not everyone has family or can see family over the holidays for one reason or another. I think it would provide a lot of happiness and cheer to so many people if you decide to post. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎅🏼❤️💚
You are not alone Laura!!! You and Aaron are so like my husband and I. I think it’s ying and Yang
Use the jars of unnamed flower seeds on the new property to make a wild flower garden over there.
"So you started off our marriage being wrong..."
Ah, Wives are truly wonderful ❤️
We grew up saying lozengers too. You're not wrong, Aaron!
I'm so glad someone pointed out the porch light so I could finally see it. I was focused on Russell and totally missed the "possessed" light.
OMGosh!!! Magic trick when your child has an emotional breakdown is to wash their face with cold water. Either with just your hand or face cloth. When it happened to my niece after waking from her nap. My sister picked her up, brought her to the bathroom sink, soaked a face cloth in cold water and patted it on her face. Instantly brought her back from where ever she was emotionally and calmed her down. ✨
Everything you do turns out beautifully Laura, always!!
Merry Christmas Laura, Aaron and Family. Thank you for sharing all of your garden knowledge with us and the great videos to learn by. I have enjoyed watching and learning what to apply to my own yard. It’s going to be so much fun for you guys with the kids this year. So much fun watching their little faces on Christmas morning.
I love you guys! Are you horticulturists, farmers, florists, decorators, artists what?? You do it all and well!
I will be spending most of Christmas Day alone, so I would happily watch your video. Whatever works for you guys. Get well Aaron!
Merry Christmas!! As far as your seed saving goes, if you can't remember which is which, it's a good thing you have a video you can watch to remind you 😁
We will always find time for your videos ❤
Just want to say Merry Christmas and thank you. I love going antiquing and garden nursery shopping with you and your mom. Have a wonderful New Year.
It's wonderful to see you guys ponder deeper life things. And it makes me ponder too. Gardening is wonderful for just that sort of thing.
Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year to you both and your families. Love your videos.
