We should really try that the wool spider ( if she exist ) will cooperate with us. She could knit useful things like bags

Yes...apparently there are a few varieties of chicory.. ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicory )
Chicory may be cultivated for its leaves, usually eaten raw as salad leaves. Cultivated chicory is generally divided into three types, of which there are many varieties:
- Radicchio usually has variegated red or red and green leaves. Some only refer to the white-veined red-leaved type as radicchio, also known as red endive and red chicory.
- Sugarloaf looks rather like cos lettuce, with tightly packed leaves.
- Belgian endive is known in Dutch as witloof or witlof ("white leaf"), endive or (very rarely) witloof in the United States, indivia in Italy, endivias in Spain, chicory in the UK, as witlof in Australia, endive in France, and chicon in parts of northern France, in Wallonia and (in French) in Luxembourg. It has a small head of cream-coloured, bitter leaves.
- Catalogna chicory (Cichorium intybus var. foliosum), also known as puntarelle, includes a whole subfamily (some varieties from Belgian endive and some from radicchio) of chicory and used throughout Italy.
I agree with Lena. You got it
My eldest has wandered the world since leaving school. She’s volunteered on conservation projects in South Africa, Tanzania and Canada. She’s travelled in Europe and the USA. The only surprise is that she got a job in the UK.
Son isn’t quite as bad for the travels. They both went off to universities hundreds of miles away and now work well away from home.
They keep in touch and come home regularly (admittedly more as somewhere to stop while they do something else [emoji849])
However, I kind of feel we did our job. We reared them to be confident and independent and I am never going to guilt trip them into feeling they owe us and must constantly pander to us... our kids come back to the nest because they know they’re always welcome and because they want to. JoesDad’s parents are a good example of how not to do it; as JoesDad and his brother regularly admit.
It is hard to see them go. Of course I miss them. But I was never one of those parents sobbing as they went off on a school trip or pining for them while they were at university.
I want them to be happy in their lives and to happily include us. It looks like you’re doing the same
Some breakfast treats for Sully...cleaned up nopales pads, nopales fruit/tuna and a few pieces of zucchini.

They should get a robot dog. Then they can program it to chase the cats away. And protect the birds.

Looks yummy.
It’s actually clean enough, maybe a splash of Fig Vinaigrette and a chilled Prosecco...for my own lunch

THANK YOU LINDA! I have plenty of “what not to do” examples.. I’m trying to let her be her own person.. she’s a good good girl but it’s hard for me not to micro manage!
