September Days coming to a End


I've been walking and enjoying the September days this last week. The leaves are beginning to turn from green to gold & red and so, apparently is this photogenic Dragon-Fly! I've never seen a red one before. I've lost another 10 plus pounds of weight, too, so have been shopping for autumn clothing, looking mostly in the second hand stores in my home Town. I'm not buying anything brand new as I'm hoping to be 30 lbs lighter by Christmas, dropping to my ideal weight of 2001!

                                                                       Hope you enjoy!

Evening Primrose

 
Evening Primrose Tincture
 
I've spent the last few days sense the storm on Friday picking tomatoes, airing winter garments for use in my sun-porch and picking evening primrose for my tincture. The blossoms have been ready sense August but with
 the job on the farm time has flown by.

I pick the blossoms, pulling back the stem to reveal the pedicel. When placed on the tip of your tongue, the nectar is honey sweet. You can feel the healing sap of the flower travel through your body in a orgasm of electric vibe. its nice ... : )
I love this tinture in the winter when the blabs take hold. Its a burst of sun-shine ☼
