When the bugs kill off everything I try to grow, there is still beauty berry, and I can make jelly and feel like I had a harvest.

I'm glad you are able to find SOME redeeming quality in it. :)<br /><br />I have a sort of cherry tree in my yard that we were afraid of yet we all ate some cherries off it and no one died, so I guess I should pull out a book and research what it is and then maybe I can make some jelly or a pie with the berries next year. Live off the land a bit.

Like you, I have a head full of neat things I could do, like rose hip jelly, but no, I won't get to that either. I hope I manage to take a walk, I dream that big. I'm glad your new shoes are working out, sometimes it's the little things, like new shoes or inserts that help chronic, old problems.<br />Also, Owen's birthday at your house will be wonderful. He probably associates fantastic gatherings with his amazing Mer-Mer's house and wanted the best party in the universe there. I bet it will turn into a dance party!

New walking shoes are awesome, aren't they?<br />Thank you for Owen's birthday greeting. <br /><br />Steve Reed- Could very well be although the few web sites I checked about making jelly with the beautyberry said it was delicious. Of course almost anything with as much sugar in it as jelly is going to taste all right.

But now I completely get how she would be confused!<br /><br />I always thought the beautyberry was poisonous too. I certainly never heard of making jelly from it. Maybe it's like an elderberry -- you COULD eat it, but why?!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-85373528179107024372013-09-24T21:25:43.084-04:002013-09-24T21:25:43.084-04:00And Happy Birthday, dear Owen!And Happy Birthday, dear Owen!nicolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634572672852445923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-23953545276624403012013-09-24T21:23:52.375-04:002013-09-24T21:23:52.375-04:00I am always waiting for the other shoe to drop.
