JUST CHIT CHAT

Did anyone else's blog have a few hundred hits over the last couple days or was it because of my "Nose Job" headline?  I know in the past there were many of us who had an enormous amount of visits so wonder if this is another freak outbreak of something similar.

Also, have you ever eaten an Asian pear?  I hadn't until recently when someone gave me 10 huge pears.  I'd never seen pears this big and was told when they turn yellow they are ready to eat and are sweet.  I've never seen Asian pears sold at my local grocery stores.  Later that day I washed one and sliced a piece off.  It was sweet but crunchy, which surprised me.  So Googled Asian pears to learn they are crunchy like an apple, you can read about them HERE.   

Above picture is only 4 of the dozen I was given.  Since then I've had chunks of sweet pears in my green salads, made a pear crisp and still have a few pears left and in the fridge.

The last couple days I've been in a turtleneck and sweats.  Look at the temperatures for the next few days.  Guess I'd better make tracks and accomplish what I can in the yard before the real cold weather comes in.

I've pulled a few more loops on Magdalena's Double Horses and will give you an update soon.  Not sure when that will be as I've yard work tomorrow and have been informed there will be a rug pattern order coming my way soon.

Happy hooking.
