Sierra's Scoop

Happy Tuesday everyone, it's Sierra! When I was a puppy I once played with a lemon. I found it laying on some grass and thought what a great smelling ball. Then all of a sudden when I tried to bite down on it, I got squirted with a super sour citrus that burned my tongue for hours. So when I heard that Mommy and Daddy were planting both a lime and a lemon tree, I thought double trouble.

I tried to warn Teddy Bear to be extra careful around those trees but him being the alpha male that he is, I don't think he will ever take advice from his little sister. So far so good, I don't see any fruit yet so I might have time to convince Teddy about the dangers of citrus. He might might not be so leary of citrus since he loves tangerines. How do you feel about lemons or limes or tangerines or oranges?

What do you do...

when life gives you lemons, I mean apples? You make lemonade, I mean applesauce. Mommy was very disappointed about the organic fuji apples we received from our Azure order. We've never gotten bad apples before. The good news is that she received a full credit and she'll be able to salvage some of the apples to make applesauce. She says she's going to make it tomorrow. I can't wait. It was a beautiful, sunny day today. We did a lot of work in the garden and had a great walk. If it starts to get any warmer we'll have to go for night time walkies. How are you enjoying the weekend?

Thankful Thursday

'Tis the season for generosity. Today I am thankful for friends who had gardens during the summer. Daddy brought home a pomegranate and several lemons. We hope that Daddy's friend will bring more pomegranates. They are so tasty. Mommy says they are good for you too. What is your favorite fruit?
