Pies
The Pie Fairy hasn't been around dropping off a nice fruit pie.. I might even enjoy the Pie of the Month Club...if I knew of one. That sent pies to the backwaters of Maine.But the Rhubarb Fairy (my daughter) left me a large bag of tender rhubarb stalks- just picked yesterday. I'd love to bake a pie. I will trim, wash and chop the stalks and layer them in flat trays and freeze them...then bag them...ready for pie or jam making.
Grass is being cut....blower is removing any cut grass from sidewalks or drive....Sun has come out. Perhaps it happened as I typed the word PIE. It's glorious. I love it when the Sun Shines in this forested yard..
My visit to the neighbor one block over was a delight. We talked about books, husbands- and how it is nice to not be living with them....had tea and cookies and I admired her lovely framed art on all the walls. she had great artist's work-- a life time collection.
I wish I had purchased paintings and drawings over my very interesting and well traveled Life. I wish my walls were covered in framed ART. I am tempted to get out the paints and brushes and make one more picture and have it framed. And then....perhaps another.....etc.
Sun has now gone.....now it's back.......sliding in and out ... In the old Days I would be in the back garden tending to the vegetables snd herbs....(now just a weedy mess)......how did everything I loved slip away from me??????? Has it happened to you as you grew older?????
