I’m here to tell you that tats are out, and nose décor will be the newest fad. Tattoos had been rising in popularity, judging by their visibility on the street. Once people see the possibilities of decorating their noses, this fashion will be nothing to sneeze at. Those looking for “green” possibilities will be thrilled. They can use organic elements found in their own gardens. Beat the rush! Get your style sheet today! Send in the Sinus Up Form immediately! Nathaniel is modeling the Wistful Wisteria Pod, a very popular look for August.

A few days ago grandson N picked all the pods under the pergola. Of course, being as tall as he is, he didn’t need a ladder.

He began to empty his pockets onto the table. I thought it was a magic trick, as they just kept coming and coming.

He asked us to guess how many there were.

I don’t remember who won, but the total was 75. We weighed the largest pod, showing 3 ounces. I didn’t think to weigh the whole crop.

If anyone wants some, please come help yourself. I’m wondering how we will dispose of them. If we take them to the dump, 75 pods might explode and cover the whole county next spring.
