@canesisters speaking of challenge did you ever make the pear and chestnut soup?

Actually, they are still sitting in a basket on my counter next to some butternuts. I'm holding off (hopefully till next weekend) for a dear friend to be able to come over. We had planned to meet up just before Christmas but she came down with that nasty sinus jusk that's been going around. I can't WAIT to try it! Roasted butternut squashes, pear & chestnut soup, home made bread, and cranberry/orange tea.

Ha! @Nyboy .
I'm not @canesisters but I was just talking to DW yesterday about the d'Anjou pears on the kitchen table and the jar of cashews on the counter ... I got an "eeww!" suggesting that we might try soup

having looked @TheSeedObsesser 's "rock concert" on the garden humor thread and intending to check varieties of exterior paint around here ...

I can just see it now. Steve's walkway with a red wagon, million bells pouring out of it on all sides. The wagon is being pulled by a garden gnome trying not to step on a small cluster of bowling ball bumble bees & a family of flat rocks painted up as lady bugs.
That's next to the watering can and work boots with hen & chicks growing all over them and a gazing ball that's been bedazzled.
When we turn the corner we see Steve watering a well worn chair that has a cluster of red geraniums for a seat.
Can you tell I like "garden junk"?

I think you should accessorize that brick with a muscular arm emerging from the soil with the brick clutched in it's hand. You could tell visitors it's "art" with deep social significance.

@baymule take care of that brick you never know just might show up out of the blue...I have my yard art for our new house. I have a very fine red brick sent to me by my friend @majorcatfish !!!

I would be afraid that muscular arm would throw the brick at me.

That brick is my prized possession!!
