The EyeBall In The ATTIC

What is lurking behind the Attic Door.







 

When I bought this old house,
I was told a ghost lived in the attic.
Her name is Christine

She wears a long black dress.
She lived all her life in this house
A nice kind lady, a spinster.
Luckily for me I'm not afraid of Ghosts


Enjoy my little skit....A Halloween Story


Upon Opening the Attic Door,
there is a Hand and an Eyeball....





The Eyeball and the Hand.....



Who?



It's  Christine, she lives in the Attic



Isn't she boooo-ti-ful


















footnotes: 
My Dad knew the real Christine, 
she was a nice lady who lived in 
this house a long time ago.

Parsley



Parsley is an annual Herb,
 it contains zero cholesterol and fat,
 but rich in anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber.
 I use it a lot in my cooking.




In the Spring, I planted one small plant from the Grocery Store (IGA)
 and it grew very well in my garden.(with little care)
It could also be planted in a flower box
or a pot inside

I cut my Parsley and washed them in a clean sink 
filled with water and dried them with Scott Towel
To Dry Your Parsley, gather all of your harvested sprigs into loose bundles.
Be sure to pick out any  discolored or unhealthy leaves.
Secure them with a soft twine or dental floss.
Hang them in a warm, dry and preferably dark place.
My herbs hanging to dry
 After two-three weeks, your parsley should be dry and crumble to the touch. 
Strip the parsley of the stocks with your fingers.


I use a hand blender to chop the Parsley finer










Place in jars or store in a cool dry place. enjoy....

Autumn Garden Tour

Autumn is beautiful in this part
of the world, Eastern Canada. 
Color change in leaves occur wherever
deciduous trees are found and 
it is harvest time when all the planting
and caring for during summer months 
are collected, farmers cutting grain to 
feed their animals during the long 
coming winter and fruits on trees have
been picked and preserves made .


Here are some pic from my Garden


Maple Tree


My Swiss Chard - Before



Swiss Chard......after the Deer Raided My Garden



There he is...that's him....



Bird Food


Barberry, I found this bush growing in the woods,
 the birds must have carried the seeds there 


I love Tamarack Trees, a fast  growing deciduous tree.

their delicate soft branches turn yellow
 in Autumn and they become nude in Winter.


Tiger Lilies, this pic was taken earlier in August
I included in My Autumn Album 
because of the pretty Orange color.

Your mind is a garden,
your thoughts are the seeds,

The harvest can be either flowers or weeds."
