Just got back from Christmas with my California relatives and met the
pumpkin God of Moraga, aka CHris Anderson! What a nice guy! My new guru, he
taught me everything I (now) know about growing the big ones, THEN handed
over seeds from every pumpkin he ever grew! And drew me a diagram of the
Christmas tree pruning method which now makes sense to me for the first
time ever!
Nice or what?
Now if only George (his wife) had let me steal one of those hot apricot
shortbread Christmas cookies my visit would have been beyond perfect! But
any woman who rules at Freecell is gotta be a friend o' mine!
Chris even let me bury his skunk. Can you get any nicer?
To the guru: thanks, Chris, for sharing so incredibly generously with all
we neophytes out here in cloud-cuckoo-pumpkin-land. Hello to Kyle, and
Penny the Fox Terrier says hi, too!
Happy New Year. How were the chocolates?
