Saturday, August 26, 2006Pie time again The jays and the deer have been feasting, they're falling on the ground, I picked this 5 gallon bucket and there's probably at least another 10 gallons on the tree.  I told Noel to find somebody who wanted them... and fast! They are ripening very fast.I bake pies for him every year in exchange for my share, but there are just too many to use at once and I'm not canning anymore for just the two of us. But they sure are good right off the tree! 
posted @ 07:28 PM PST [link] Friday, August 25, 2006What I've been doing... It's been a while since I've posted. It's not that I haven't been doing, it's just that it hasn't been the sort of thing you want to post about. See photo! lol Went up to Sis's and we did go to spinning, but I'm still spinning last years easter egg dyed cormo. That's old news. We spun and knitted and shopped and managed to get her 12 inch square loom under the edge of a rocker and bent a bunch of nails so I brought that back for Randy to fix.  One of the gals in her guild also gave me a bunch of rug making stuff, warp and cut rags, I haven't looked at it all yet, but it looks like there'll be a lot of work for me in those two bags! lol Other than that, I did the grocery shopping for the month (That's sans the bread and milk kind of stuff, of course) which explains the fridge stuffed to the gills in the photo!  And, believe it or not... I have to go to town today! To take the recycling in and to buy boards at the lumber yard to finish the window sills in the 'new' bedroom. I know he isn't going to get time to do it so I'm going to do it myself, can't stand it any longer!  And the neighbor says the peaches are ripe!  He gets pies in exchange for the peaches I get. And they won't wait! Blackberries are also ripe. Good thing I don't have a garden anymore!Hope your late summer isn't too frantic! posted @ 06:40 AM PST [link] |
