SIGNS OF DECEMBER

I know it isn't December yet but there are signs in the yard that it is next week!  My first Satsuma orange was enjoyed along with a slice of toast.  A friend ground the wheat and baked a loaf just for me!  What a delicious combination!

The bush is 15' tall and very tropical looking!

Bill is taking me in for my second blood-letting today and when I get home, I am hoping for enough energy to start a few early chores to get ready for a Thanksgiving day gathering!
