Thanks to the freeze I had two giant bags of oranges from my tree. I hated to pick them but the temps were below freezing for over 10 hours and I was advised to get them in. Had to give them away! The weather patterns have changed so much that this bitter cold front would have frozen them on the tree. Some don't understand the term global warming--which also includes erratic freezes. You might consider the term "climate change" which is more often used now because so many people couldn't comprehend the facts about global warming because of the name. 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊

I went to Bay St Louis Tuesday for a library talk and terrific luncheon. So I came home with a sack of persimmons (I love these things), a family recipe for persimmon muffins, and an invitation to a gala Christmas tree judging competition. This is quite a haul, right?

Getting ready for the party! #halloween2019

Oh, no biggie. Just a moment with Academy Award winner @morganfreeman in Clarksdale, MS. This was taken in 2010 for the book release party of Delta Blues. I edited this mystery anthology stuffed with crime and the blues.. and Morgan wrote the foreword to the book. A portion of the proceeds were donated to the Rock River Foundation which is a charity dedicated to helping the arts and literacy in the Delta. #ThrowBack #DeltaBlues #MorganFreeman #groundzerobluesclub

Brunching with this sassy and awesome group of gal

Brunching with this sassy and awesome group of gals.

I was in the grocery store and saw these coconuts—and had a flashback to a nightmare incident. I was just learning to cook and I was intending to make a fresh coconut cake. The recipe said to bake the dang coconut. No other instructions. It seemed pretty hard to bake so I turned the oven on 500, rolled the coconut in, and went outside to play baseball. Of course the hair on the coconut caught on fire. My mother opened the oven and was horrified to see a hairy creature on fire. She sprayed the fire extinguisher into the oven. End result—new oven and I had to paint the kitchen. Yeah, it’s funny now, but at the time it was not!
