Early Morning With Pokie




If you travel to D.C. this spring or summer to visit the monuments and museums, and you're in Arlington to go to the pentagon memorial garden or the air force memorial , you might take a wrong turn down a one way street. If it's early in the morning and you see a disheveled blonde in pajama bottoms and a t shirt strolling through a garden with her one eyed faithful cat, you have found me.

And if you know how to keep the squirrels from eating all our peaches this summer, please stop and tell me.

  2. Wish I could take that wrong turn but probably just a wee bit too far!
    I, would be happy to share with the squirrels but I don't think even they would eat our peaches! They are so full of fruit fly! Perhaps I could send them over to you, then all you have to worry about is getting all the fruit off, into black plastic bags, leave in the sun for three days then dump! Hope they leave you some!
    I sound a bit whiny there sorry. Just finishing a book I will tell you about when I have. Night.

    Julienne, Wow I feel better about my peaches! Hope you slept well and are finishing up that book.

    Gardeners Cottage, Wish you would take a wrong turn too! So glad you're loving the book. Thank God for the library. How is Chez Panisse Vegetables?

    Gwen, Hey, hello. No, it's garlic. Now i want lemongrass.
