Candy.Corn.Treats

Sorry,Beckie...I.misspoke.

I.havent.been.knitting...First.I.had.to.finish.a.fouryearlong.cross.stitch.project.

and.then.I.have.been.crocheting....Found.this.pattern.on.Lion.Brand.

and.modified.it.to.make.the.goody.bag.

The.chinese.takeout.container.is.from.Michaels.about

two.years.ago...But.I.see.them.every.year.







I.later.saw.a.pattern.for.a.candy.cane.bag.similar.to.mine.that.was.felted.

I.may.try.that.too...Like.it.much.better.

When Nature Calls - Trees


While.admiring.my.new.tomatoes.on.the.vine,Repete.excitedly.told.me.he.knew.where.some.
more.tomatoes.were.as.he.walked.toward.the.imaginary.line.dividing.our.yard.
from.our.neighbors.

Heres.his.tomatoes.




After.a.quick.search.here.at.ArborDay.org,
we.discovered.we.have.a.
Persimmon.Tree.

It.is.said.if.you.cut.open.the.seeds.you.can.predict.the.winter.weather.



Supposedly,if.the.shape.inside.the.seed.looks.like.a.knife,the.winter.will.be.icy.cold..
If.the.shape.resembles.a.spoon,there.will.be.plenty.of.snow.to.shovel.
If.it.looks.like.a.fork,the.winter.will.be.mild.
What.do.you.think?
I.see.a.long.thin.line.in.the.center.
Icy.cold?
Brrrr.

PetespilledwateronmykeyboardandIhavenospacebar.

The.boys.wanted.to.use.the.decks.as.a.their.fort...But.first.they.wanted.to.clean.off.the.leaves.and.pine.needles...I.let.them.use.the.leaf.blower...All.playing.aside,the.decks.look.great.



I.think.I.will.hype.up.using.the.bathroom.as.a.fort.and.leave.cleaning.supplies.on.the.counter.
