Weekly Roundup: “If you listen, you can hear it.”

A thoroughly haphazard selection of things that have caught my interest:

Advice sought:

Several things to look at, all of which invite the question, “did they just…?” And yes, they seem to have. (Not G-rated, but SFW):

And to close, the passage which made me the abovementioned crazy, so you will know why this book is one of my favorites.

He says my daughter, and all the love he has is wrapped up in the tone of his voice when he says those two words, he says my daughter you must always look with both of your eyes and listen with both of your ears.

I can only leave help in the food category again. As usual.

A nectarine is the fruit that resembles a peach with no fuzz. They a re smaller and more fragrant that a peach. Both are part of the rose family.

A tangerine is a citrus fruit. It’s like a very sweet orange with easy to peel skin. They’re in season starting in November. If you’re nice you can have a jar of fresh tangerine preserves as soon as they become available.
