Harvest Haiku

The time for harvest

in our "Land of Lincoln" where

the soil is sacred.

TD Smile

Oh that "Touchdown Smile!"

Football Fever Abounds

"My two favorite teams are undefeated: 
the Lawrenceville Indians & Notre Dame, although I think the Indians
have a much tougher schedule. 

I'm sure L.H.S. could beat
Rice, Purdue, and Syracuse!"                                                                  ~Mr. Jennings

Play, Play, Play

"Whenever we're feeling blue, all

we have to do is play with our pets. 
It's simple......your courage returns!"

Today was fun.

Tomorrow is another one."

Some Folks Are "Losing!"

"Other than a dimple in a cute little chin,
What’s more adorable than a toothless grin?"
                                                                   ~Betty Espezia

Hmmm......keeping the
Tooth Fairy busy, are we?

Saturday Smile

"The person who can bring
the spirit of laughter into
the room is indeed blessed."

So Much More

"There's so much more to

    a book than just reading."  

                                                   ~Maurice Sendak                             

 

Two Spoons

"I just picked a persimmon
from a tree in our back yard.
2 spoons....we know what that means!"
                                                      ~Parkside Mom

"According to old-timers, persimmon seeds can be used to
predict the severity of winter weather. When cut in half,
the persimmon seed will display one of three symbols."

A knife shape:  cold, icy winter
(where wind "cuts" you like a knife). 

A fork shape:  a mild winter. 

A spoon shape:  a shovel to dig out the snow!"

An Apple a Day........
