There it is, “fine orchard giving pears apples plums 🍑es & still Father don’t care for me? – lance durning

“What was the name of that woman whose daughter was struck by lightning. In Ponce’s hayfield. Just before, walking through, the two of them had been talking about 🍑es. The different varieties of 🍑 es. Which kind each preferred. For nights after, they found her wandering Ponce’s, mumbling about 🍑es, searching for that juncture of the conversation at which she might jump the breach of time and go back, push the girl aside, take the fatal bolt herself. She could not accept that it had happened, but must go over it and over it.”

“his wit was quick, people liked him for his bumbling and his ferocity of purpose, and the 🍑 orchards and haystacks and young girls and ancient wild meadows drove him nearly mad with their beauty, and strange animals moved in lazy mobs along muddy rivers, rivers crossable only with the aid of some old rowing hermit who spoke a language barely English, and all of it, all of that bounty, was for everyone, for everyone to use, seemingly put here to teach a man to be free, to teach that a man could be free, that any man, any free white man, could come from as low a place as he had

I am still bringing Charlotte Ruse for dessert, I have peached it up!

Great, still thinking about what to do with the book rating on the blog

I think worst rating on the blog should be a peach pit since the book is “The Pits”.

Or a rotten peach like the rotten tomato rating they use for movies

How about peaches instead of stars, e.g., 5 peaches=Loved it; 4 =Liked it; 3=meh; 2=didn’t like; 1=peach pit (hated it)? Have no idea what to bring for food–maybe an appetizer

Wendy Made a sugar lake with chocolate fishSandra Made jicama bones.
