I'm confused. So was the pie made from mulberry? The tree?
She sounds like a wonderful friend to have had. And continued to have. I wish I could have had that kind of friendship with some of my favorite teachers. I'm glad you had her. They're a blessing aren't they. And it sounds like you are passing that along to your students too.
Yes MS Cathie...that very tree.
We had some good news at the Nook in today. We saw a fawn being born...sorry for the pic but we didn't want to spook mom. When the fawn drops you cannot see it's spots till mom licks it. Neat
At the same time this is going on over on the East side of the yard over on the West side we had new friends in the Owl box!
Little baby Racoons....so incredibly cute. Rocky(mom) has been sleeping on the top of the box and today moved them one at a time, hundreds of yards away to a new home. Pretty cool that Kerry's Dad was here to see it all.

A favourite of silk worms.
How wonderful to witness all that in your back yard.
Sorry for your loss Natrah. It's not just the loss of a friend but a big part of your history too. It's wonderful that you're now passing her legacy onto your pupils.
Good morning all. It's a grey day here, but not as windy and wet as yesterday when the rain was almost horizontal. I think a lot of baby birds may have been lost out of fallen/ damaged nests 
.
I'm waiting for a parcel so can't go far today. Hopefully it won't keep me waiting all day so that I can at least make a trip to the tip to empty my car - it's full of rubbish from my attic and I need to fill it with more.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Thankyou Lyn. My grade 5 pupil is sitting here at this very moment.

PS: Neighbours have left the porch in a mess! How are yours Lyn?
All quiet thanks to the really bad weather.
My parcel still hasn't arrived so I've not been able to go out. Just had a message to say it will arrive between 6 and 9 pm.
I usually collect parcels from a pick up point to avoid wasting a day but for some reason they would only do home delivery for this order.
I've only ordered shoe stretchers - maybe I entered the wrong size and they are enormous! ,

Yes racoons are so cute.
I think of them as America's little panda bear. I have one living in the garage. I know I should boot him or her but I just can't bear to.
See my American brothers and sisters.....it's world wide! The window! LOL
You really don't want Racoons in your home...and I would cringe if they ever get into my garage or shop. They can be very destructive MS Cathie but you be careful, they are not shy and timid creatures but are usually up for a fight so don't take away his option to escape by mistake.
Kerry is driving Dad home to NY this morning in his 208,000 car. We got it fixed last week and we picked up my truck finally from Long term parking at BWI where we parked on the way to Florida a couple of weeks ago..... that was nearly a mortgage payment!
I hate when she's gone but I'm glad that she gets to go gang with family for a few days. She will either take the train to Wilmington Dr and i pick her up or im thinking of going to get her in NY and continue on a road trip for a few days. Hmmm, have to think about that. We have a large family reunion here at the end of June then a trip planned afterwards so it might be a bit much right now.
I also picked up my new glasses yesterday....progressive transitions like the ones I wear but this time I opted for the best lens they have...hd lens. It IS better but the delta for it used to be 100 bucks and now it was 300 and im not sure it was worth all that just in case anyone else is considering.
The guys leave around 8 so feel free to call or come by after.....LOL
Fire up the BBQ Jeff - we're all on our way!!!
Good morning all, it's pretty damp and windy here again, but not as bad as Tuesday.
I've had a trip to a town called Caerphilly this morning and had to use my satnav which brought me home via the scenic route through a forest road. It would have been very pleasant but for the fact my engine light started flashing and then stayed on in the depths of the wood.
I made it home ok with the occasional misfire so I used my diagnostic tester which gives me the code for open cylinder 1. So I'll have to visit my garage again. It's done this before but then stopped, the engine light disappeared and the car seemed fine, so I hope it's just a loose or dirty connection. I'll have to get it looked at though as I'll be worrying about breaking down when I drive anywhere again. I just hope the cost isn't worth more than the car!
Happy Thursday everyone! TTFN

Nope. No raccoon as house pets for me. Their little hands can do anything! Break into everything! Little bandits. I raised babies for release in the wild. You gotta admit it's tempting though. They're so lovely and cute. Butt ...yes they aren't suitable for a house pet. That doesn't mean I'm going to try booting that raccoon anytime soon. At least by myself
