 So if it's a murder of crows would it be a crawl of caterpillars? What ever the term they were a little unnerving. Worse was this was all we found on our morning hunt for morals. I think maybe just a little late in the season and it felt just a little dryer out there this year too. Skunked but for this nest of beauties.

 Yahoo. Fresh asparagus. Katherine did up this wonderful meal for us the other day. A warm potato salad with grainy mustard vinaigrette and garlic chive buttons. Lentil salad with garden fresh oregano and garden chives topped with avocado. All topped with fresh asparagus. What a treat. To say Katherine feeds us like this every day is only a tiny stretch. She looks after us. Oh, you now have to go out the the Sutclif farm on lower Wyndel road for your asparagus. Just follow the signs.  What a ripping good time. This is Ed McMackin and Katherine. Ed did four one hour "Backyard Biologist' tours as part of the Sunday morning events. So knowledgeable. As are all of the presenters. Katherine was thrilled with the "Medicinal Plant Tour with Rowan Hamilton" Saturday afternoon. We both had a fun evening at Julie Miller's yard with the crew watching hummingbirds Friday night. Don't miss this next year. I know we'll be signing up for as many as we can take in. Oh, and the guest speaker Saturday evening, Dave Quinn, a real treat.  This is a great picture that our friend Brian took of Tamara making one of her wonderful cappiccino's. What a sad time here at Kingfisher. Our customers, Katherine and I will all miss her so much. She really brought a most wonderfull special kind of energy to the store. The good news is she'lll be staying in Creston so we'll all still see her and Zack in the bookstore. Regular like we hope.
 So I drove home from Red Deer the end of April in snow flurries. Left behind brown grass, wet fields and snow in the tree lines. Arrived here to tulips, magnolia, Japanese cherry, aprictoc, early blue violot and a ton more, all in bloom. Wow. Absolultey remarkable. It's just a different world. The Mormons south of us have it right. Bountifull. That's the name of their comunity and they are so right. Creston is bountifull. |
