Guess What!

I've decided to grow my hair out again (gasp, shock, you're kidding!) No, it's true. Once again in spite of what I said the other day I'm letting it grow. I just wish I wouldn't make melodramatic statements about keeping it short forever. For decades my normal pattern has been to cut, grow, cut, grow. Even as a child it was that way. Why stop now? My record for growing out has been 4 years, my hair made it to waist length at that time. This last time I only lasted 9 months. It would be nice to break my old record, we'll see.

I got enough good peaches off the tree to make a cobbler. It turned out really good. The rest of the peaches are no good. The birds have pecked some of them, others are rotten and still others have bugs in them. When they fall off the tree they splat on the ground. Gross. We've been shaking the tree trying to get them off. There's only a few left up near the top.

Our hunter friend gave us some more wild boar. Three roasts this time. I put one in the crock pot with potatoes, onions and carrots. Even after several hours it was kind of tough, that's because it is so very lean. I'll have to add some kind of fat to the other roasts to try and moisten them. I really like the taste of the meat. Doesn't take like pork to me, more like beef.

Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore do not fear; you are of more value than many sparrows.
Matthew 10:29-31
