THE FURTHER ADVENTURES OF OUR LEAVES

 The Falling Leaves are back at it again today.

Yesterday we worked so hard rounding up all the leaves in the front yard.

Sigh, this morning it looks like we did nothing at all yesterday.

First off, I went on Google to answer your question about the Strawberry Tree's fruit.  Are they edible?

Surprise to me ... yes they are ... Apparently they have a gritty texture and are sweet/sour in flavor.  The site says they have a heavy pectin substance.  A lot of people used them to make preserves and marmalade.  Who Knew !!                             The trees bell like flowers are dropping in mass quantities all over the sidewalk, and the bees are going crazy for those still on the tree.





Our project yesterday ... 


We used the blower and then the lawn mower to mulch them into oblivion.




And now ... 

Here we go again.

We're trying to get as much done as we can because the weather "guys" say its 100% rain tomorrow and several days after that.  We'll see if they are right.


I guess we have our work cut out for us.

Always be Grateful

Always be Kind.
