The Oak Tree |
"Ow! Don't do that!" I cry and shake my fist with one hand and rub my sore head with the other. I can't even walk down my driveway without that tree pelting me with acorns.
Today, still sore from acorn wounds, I decide I can make something of all these acorns.
Acorns! |
I've made myself some Acorn Potpourri. The whole kitchen smells like a spiced harvest.

You heard it said that when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Well, when life throws acorns across your path (and on your head), you gather them and make Acorn Potpourri.

I LOVE this. As soon as it stops raining (Wednesday, I think), I'm gathering a basketful of acorns and copying your delightful idea.
when I was a kid we used to make acorn people . . . moms and dads from the big acorns and kids form the small acorns . . . we'd glue little googly eyes (from a craft store) and make funny faces . . . they already come with nice french beret's for hats.
