An original story by Dimitri Meder, age 3.5

Dimitri holding a drawing of 9444.

     Its started with a big ant. And then a big tube. And then it starts with a big boulder. And then it starts with a big straight line.
This machine is called a 9444 super squad. Its job is to throw people down it and turn them into Nannies. And they will have the same voice and the Nanny that lives in East Lansing will not even know that we are all Nannies. And the Sebastian that lives there will not even know that we are Sebastians. There is a machine  called the 9114 that turns people into Sebastians.
It has lots of parts and gears that puts a mask on that changes your face and everything. It looks like a giant, giant house that is a big boulder. There is a giant curly french fry tube that you slide down and it takes you super fast and drops the mask on a scrapes everything off and that is how it turns you into Sebastian or Nanny. It will drop you into the soft trash can at the bottom.
There will be 40-60,000 Nannies. Nanny will say "Oh! That is my reflect!"
There will be 40-60,000 Sebastians.
And 40-60,000 Hammers.
You buy this machine at the market store and it costs 40,000 quarters. It is blue and red and yellow and green.
The Sebastians will eat Tomatos, Broccoli and Bananas. Nanny's robots that she has invented will make the food. Laser beams will catch the food. The food will get bruised, but that is ok.
There are robots inside also. The bottom of the tube looks like a toilet paper tube, but that is just a playmobil attitute tube.
And the now I want to buy that machine. Phew!

 In many ways, the moment a chill hits the air all I can think about is baking. Not that I am actively doing it, but I love to dream. And read about recipes.

                          
 

Apple picking opens tomorrow at Wasems. We went through 2 bushels last year, can we do 3 the next?

gourd-lackery

Long handled gourds, growing around Tomatos. 6/24/10

 

 

Long Handled gourds around Tomatoes. Note the complete lack of Gourds. 8/15/10

Up North, with harmony.

    































     This silly guy. Every where we went somewhere today, he would ask our destination. Whatever the answer was, be it library, pool, store, pizza.... he would yell "No! I want to go Up North!"
Luckily, this has been a summer of many Up Norths.
He is one lucky boy.

Killer gourds and Etsy pages.

My long handles gourds are taking over the garden. In a frightening fashion. And producing no gourds.
I could not be grumpier.
Dreams of birdhouses and rattles, all gone.
A reality of gourd vines blocking us into our house and stealing Dimitri's dump trucks, fat approaching.

In another note, started a web page.

Also been getting crafty, see anything  you like on my site, look for it for sale here: BootsNGus

Watch out for my Gourds, they're long handled.

Lets try again.

Leaf in the face.



Every once and a while I get the urge to write down some daily occurances. Perhaps if I take a photographic approach it shall help. We shall see.

I love the names of the garden.
