recent observations, week 11.

acorns, mostly.

Pockets are for acorns.

Tote bags are for leaves.

Is it morning or is it night?

Patches make most things better.

The oppressive inanity of leaf blowers, an autumnal scourge.

The crispiest parts of the cauliflower are for the cook. Best eaten straight off the pan.

Kitchen table math.

Walkie talkie dispatches from the corner.

Candle wicks sputtering.

Echinacea seeds scattering.

A wooden spoon handle splintering.

5:30 pm trees glow green, then lights out.

An observation can be an invitation:

Just love the sounds of acorns hitting the ground or the rooftops.
