'Mornin. Restful day today, I hope. Been working for a change. Local wine maker called for volunteers to help bottle. Spent three days putting bottles on the bottler.I think we did about 500 cases in all. Due to the sulfites I'll have to wait a couple months to try the 'samples'. It was an interesting experience.
Went out to play toss the sock with Tinker this morning and saw the Alonsoa meridionalis I got from Ursula has a couple blossoms. Thought it might be too cold for it here. Pretty plant, lots of good examples in the Plant File. Today might be a good day to plan the rain barrel 'water tower'. Have to finish a book and get it back to the library though so that might take precedence. "Lend me an ear", Mable Hoffman. Training a 'Hearing Ear Dog'. Sort of like a seeing eye dog, but for hearing impaired. Would like to get Tinker into it if possible. Trainers are hard to find and I don't travel well so that limits the prospects some. Left Penny's Lemon Pepper Biscotti out over the weekend and they lost their crunch. They are out of the oven now, crunchier than ever, and soon to receive their lemon glaze. Give me an hour and you can help yourself. Just noticed my keyboard is grimy. I'd stick it in the dishwasher, but there isn't a full load, but then mebby I's not playin wit a full deck. (giggle)
