Rainy Days and Mondays
It rained buckets here all day yesterday. What to do when you can’t go outside? Take a long nap of course.

happy is a cat with a bag
Happy Friday everyone! Hope you have as good a weekend as Lily has playing with a bag.
Persimmons….What to do with them?
We have a few persimmon trees and they are all loaded with fruit. We are still waiting for them to ripen. If they aren’t ripe and you eat them, your mouth will feel like it is turning wrong side out. They are so very sour. I have never had anything made with persimmons. Last year a friend shared a recipe for persimmon pie cupcakes. Maybe this year is the year to give it a try.
Field of Hedgeapples
This year we have a lot of hegeapples that have dropped in our yard. The hedgeapple is the fruit of the osage orange tree. As I was reading up on them I was shocked to discover that they are not poisonous. I was always told that they were. One of the common myths about hedgeapples is they will repel insects….more specifically spiders. If that were true I wouldn’t have spiders anywhere near my house.
Lucy has a few ideas
It’s a rare thing, but Glen and I finally have a day off together. Lucy has suggested that we take it easy, go for a nice long walk and maybe take a nap. I think those are all fine suggestions.
Magic Properties of Canvas
I don’t know what it is about this purple canvas tote, but Lily acts like it is made out of cat nip. She wrestles with this bag until she is worn out. I was using this bag to carry all my things to and from work. I ended up having to empty to bag and just give it to her because she was crushing all my paperwork.
