daaang.. ican't think of anything better than a really hard earned DESERVED
watermelon

and who deserved that DEEEELCTABBBLE watermelon feast than fuzzysoxsmiling smiley

gosh i am STILL laughing as i think about it

i think i could laugh all year long
actually, i did something similar to what you did ( and yes.. it was an accident and involved a WATERMELOn ) but it didn't involve riding my bike

no, it happened split second
and the watermelon fell on the sidewallk

and it got ants and sand all over it

and well.... i forget what happened afterwards except me and my friend kept laughing about it years afterwards

that is why your story kind of resonated with me

it IS hilarious

wooohooooOOOO

fuzzysox ... you are 2 cool!

I have to say this really quietly:

my son and his gf bought a juicer and a blender today and they've been making fruit and greens and raw tahini smoothies. that's a switch from the usual university fare.

Happy news:
I'm totally IN LOVE with fall this year!

Some years, not so much. This year, for some reason, the gorgeous fall weather is making my heart sing. I feel wildly and mysteriously alive. It not only is awakening all my physical senses, but it's filling me with this enormous passion to take all my creative urges (music, art, design) and do something outrageously bold, fulfilling and successful with all of it.

hey kwan

i totalllllee read you
about the fall thing

i'm so in love with fall too that i think i could just fall off the planet or something due to this feverish fall love that i have.. it makes me unable to walk straight so i have to focus on keeping two feet planted cuz otherwise

bi would miss the changing of the autumn leaves
so i would have to climb back to the tierra firma once again

I LOVE FALL
I LOVE FALL
I LOVE FALL

I LOVE FALL
I LOVE FALL
I LOVE FALL

My bit of good news is that with the help of my family our garden is realy starting to come alive. Its the start of spring here and its looking great. Our fruit trees which we planted about 3 or 4 years ago are just loaded with blossom. We have 1 fig, 2 pear, 2 nectarine, 1 peach, 2 persimon, 2 apple, 1 apricot, 1 gauva and 8 feigoa yahooo ! They are mainly planted permaculture styles too. Just gotta get more veges in the ground now.

I just had fresh coconut water from a young coconut for the first time yesterday - it was great! A lot more came out than I was expecting, but there was a lot less of the jelly like edible interior than I had imagined. Think I'll try that again soon!
Only took me about 10 minutes to crack it open smiling smiley
Cheers,

I had a peaceful day gardening and almost no encounters with laundry odours, so I got to enjoy hours and hours of my favourite thing: fresh air. I had some nice company for a while and the weather was perfect.

Also I realized how I've changed toward slugs, spiders, worms, beetles, etc.......though I haven't killed them for many years, I wasn't especially sympathetic to them either - I use to find them disgusting.
But now them seem like perfect-in-their-way little beings with perfectly acceptable lives and faces (as long as I don't have to view them magnified).

Last night I dreamed about painting silk. (In recent years I've had trouble motivating myself in my tiny apartment to set up a big silk frame and work on silk, even though I used to sell my stuff in a gallery.) Well, in this dream it was so REAL and VIVID. I was putting the clear resist on the white silk, and then I was painting the whole background a pale pink. It was almost like a lucid dream. I've been working with some very powerful techniques lately from the 'Getting Unstuck LLC' website, and I feel like all kinds of good energies are being called forth and I'm moving forward in my life.

Is it from the Dan Millman book, lightform?

Are you feeling especially good because you're getting into spring weather? I spent one NZ summer in northland and of course, loved it - Russell, Keri, Whangerei, Kaitaia, 90 mile beach, Auckland, Waitangi Day, heepi farm, etc.

However it's cold, wet and darkish here in Vancouver and all I can do is nurse my fond memories of subtropical winter months. Well I guess HAVING good memories is good newssmiling smiley

Sounds like a nice summer aqua smiling smiley next time you come to N.Z you should go and visit our Sth Isl though, that is where alot of N.Z's magic is as far as scenery and outdoors go. Its a real LOTR's experience.

Somehow I still haven't read the book peacefull warrior but I will. My bro raved to me about it years ago when he read it and I had always planed to but haven't managed yet.

I had many favorite parts in that movie, but one that sticks out in my mind was after the old guy disappears and Dans friends ask him if he found out how he got up on the roof and he replies " nah... but it doesn't matter "

Like he's finaly realised that the achievements aren't whats important.

Sometimes it takes loosing something before one appreciates how good it is eh. It is great to have four limbs and my health too grinning smiley

I just ate a fully ripe cherimoya and it was AWWWWWESOME. Sweat as dates, thick as whipped bananas and as subtle as watermelon... YUMMM !!

Anyone else find that when you come across a fruit that is properly grown and fully ripe it just blows you away and your thinking wow.. this must be the greatest fruit in the world. Then when something else is in season its the same again for that ? smiling smiley
