Back on the Farm


We had a harvest fest that included our bumper crop of corn.
The hardest part of the harvest was finding the ears on the knee high corn.
It was sweet. now we know that we have to plant more next year!
We had a cookout and invited the little children from next door. Lots of food was eaten, but only a selected few got corn.

The TKO

We got back from a day with Dr. Hess in ABQ. What a gentle guy. Mei's teeth are back in place and being held together with wire and glue. She has been so brave and calm throughout the whole ordeal...Emergency room (should have called the dentist last night and taken her to ABQ immediately, but I am glad she got checked out), sleeping with saggy teeth, then over an hour with her teeth being worked on.
She does have evidence of the flight to the sidewalk on her face/nose arms and foot.
She is doing great, and has a pass to watch a movie this afternoon.
This morning before the trip to Dr. Hess
Back home with wires!

Indian Market

The X Girls and I went to Indian Market this morning and the winner is:


We saw Mr. Chitto

And a winner who makes winning quilts.

The work was very beautiful. I only saw one thing that I both liked and could afford. There was lots that was way out of my range . Lots, too that was really over the top. Like a bracelet that could also be used for a leg iron. We ate at the Burrito Factory with Dr. Betsy, who did spend some money.

The Cake Boss better get out of town


Because the Cake B**** and her assistant have completed another unbelievable masterpiece!

In honor of our friends Franny and XueXia's return from England, we created an applesauce cake (well-apple butter since we didn't have applesauce) symbolizing the earth on which we stand; green buttercream frosting-the grass upon the earth; and homemade marshmallow, rolled in cocoa and powdered sugar, the stones with which is symbolized something Druid.
