lemons on a grey background 23 Jan 2011 | 04:24 am
It is icy and cold cold cold outside... I have to admit I've been loving all the snow we've been getting here in the Mid-Atlantic. The two inches that three years ago would have us all running amok in...
persimmons 21 Jan 2011 | 08:21 am
See? I can't let go. Even though this batch is really very crunchy - meaning they were likely harvested a long time ago, somewhere very far away. It's not how I usually do things, but for persimmons I...

I have a horrible habit of looking down when I walk. I suppose I'm afraid of stepping on something, or off of something, or into something bad. I have to make a conscious effort to look up and around ...
