berries.........




This is not the lovliest thing I have ever done, but it wasn't too bad. Just like the old saying goes.......there is no bad weather, only improper clothing. There is no bad berry picking, just bad clothing. I look like granny moosh mosh, but I didn't get thorns and scratches! These berries were on the side of a hill RIGHT beside the ocean. Ain't that crazy?
The pan I dropped my lovely little berries in was the very pan I was brought up with. It is the pan my mom made macaroni and cheese in, boiled gizzards and gravy, potato soup and mashed potatoes. It is aluminum so I don't use it anymore.

Ok, I had to enlarge the photo because everything was so green! Did you notice the bird in the tree(shrub) behind you?

I actually love this picture as this candid shot seems to be how I am dressed with so much going on in the gardens and such!

wow, that is quite a hillside of berries; what did you do with yours? Heather said they are pretty good...she doesn't remember that we had blackberries growing on the fence in our backyard in Portland. I didn't use them much, because the kids didn't like the seeds.

Don't Be Idle

This is Zephyr. She is the most discontent, unhappy cat I've ever seen in my life. She is selfish plain and simple. All she can think about is HER belly. This is not done in silence. When I get up (early), she's been up for hours wasting away. She's died of starvation 8 times. Don't be like Zephyr. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs   "Who are the men who are most discontented?  but idle persons-- for they lie around and find fault with everything."   (page 50-51) Zephyr is an unhappy cat. Not a happy camper.   How about you? IDLE lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha) shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain) without purpose DISCONTENT dissatisfaction with circumstances displeasure Have you no weeds to pull? No list to make or finish? No bread to bake? Nothing to mend or fix? No corner to clean? Nothing to learn? No letter to write? No project to fin...

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have alw...
