This is what I always thought about Marigolds.

I had never heard bunnies....

These flowers are colorful additions to landscaping, but they have a distinctive smell that repels mosquitoes and other garden pests, including squash bugs and tomato worms. Marigolds contain a natural compound used in many insect repellents.

I wonder if they would work against the Asian Lady Beetles that have decimated my lilies!  They are the ones that look like fake lady bugs.

We read to use Neem Oil which killed the lilies!  UGH

Next year, I am going to plant marigolds early in between the lilies...IF they come back.

DANG!  Just found this:

For another, it's an all-natural solution. No pesticides are needed here! In addition, marigolds won't just protect your garden from Japanese beetles. They also repel mosquito and cabbage worms and attract snails and spider mites away from other plants.

Maybe I am going to buy some anyways to see if I can salvage the ones that are left.

I go out every night with my gloves on and squish them.

I used to eat Rice Krisps all the time @ChiliPepper  but got away from them for some reason!

I have never tried anything like that!  Sounds Yummy.

The most adventurous I went was maybe Cheddar Cheese.

@RespectLife 

Ya, I've had plain, caramel or chedder.

Those are the only flavors I have ever seen actually.

I'm gonna order a bag & check them out.

@ChiliPepper

DH won't eat them, so I want to be sure I would like that flavor!

I have had tortilla chips w/ lime and liked those!

So, the Sea Salt & Lime rice cakes came today. I tried a few.

One thing is they are light & crispy, not thick & "firm" like the others I have tried. This could be the brand though; Quaker vs. whatever brand I have had.

They have a light, lime taste, very pleasant - not overpowering at all.

Not overly salty either.

They were a little pricey IMO, 3 bucks for a not very large bag.

I personally liked them. I would buy them again, especially if I could find a sale or coupon.
