setbacks…
Another hen is gone…We found the feathers yesterday. We now have only two. I also woke up not feeling very well this morning, and have been out of sorts. Meaning, weak, not up to doing any housework or outside chores. I think I may have overdone it yesterday! Please say a prayer for me!
Mayhaw jelly…A Southern Tradition
A friend and I were just talking today about the Mayhaw. It is becoming harder and harder for us to find in the wild, although from my research I found out it is being revived in orchards, and is available in nurseries now. I’m not sure if it is/was actually on the verge of being extinct, but according to this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayhaw – the long-living tradition of going out and picking them in the spring, of which I have been familiar with all of my life, is becoming a thing of the past for several reasons – one being the destruction of the mayhaw’s native habitat. It’s about that time of the year again to go out and forage for these berries for making scrumptious Mayhaw jelly. I wonder if we will find them! They are very similar to a crabapple I’d say – the closest description I can come up with for anyone unfamiliar with these… Also a pic is found here: http://www.southeasternoutdoors.com/flora/trees/articles/mayhaws-fruit-landscaping-wildlife.html
busy bees….
Just a little sampling of dewberries
I don’t know why I keep dreaming up new things, because everything I already have and do keeps me busier than bees in the springtime! But you know me!!
Taking time to smell the roses...
