Mystery Sale

6/19/2013

My Mom visited us for a week in early June. 
Told me the mysteries needed cleaning up and that's what she did.  Being 90 didn''t stop her from mercilessly tearing through that shelving and ditching all the old stock.  I had to try and save some of it, hence the sale table.  Mostly the small Berkley crime novels.  Just a fun little read that I'm hoping someone will enjoy.  She'll be back out in the fall so I'll keep you posted for what goes under the axe then.   Oh, check out Tamara's Face Book page for a view of the sale shelf/table.

Kootenay Meadows Farm.  Certified Organic milk and cream.  So right here on the edge of Creston we have an organic dairy.  The Harris's started out with Kootenay Alpine Cheese and have now added a line of organic milk.  If you don't have an ice cream maker go buy one.  Their milk and any fresh fruit results in an absolutely over the top treat.  The best store bought does not come close.  Check out their site at

Claude Michel is at the farmers market here in Creston every Saturday selling his mushrooms.  On the counter are shitake growing from a kit and also in a tray of coffee grounds.  What a great way to recycle.  We're kind of proud to be part of all that.  Well, he's always giving us samples to try which a pretty nice little bonus too.

Snake in the Grass

Check this guy out.  Katherine took the picture in our yard a few days back.  Now if I was a little mouse and I saw those eyes staring at me I would just simply roll over and die of fright.  I mean really.  They are eary.  When I described this to our local biologist Ed McMackin he thought it was to do with shedding it's skin.  We enjoy the snakes in our yard and don't use any chemicals so everyone sticks around but this was a little unnerving.
