Does anyone know when hedgeapples come into season?
I have been finding these disgusting little spiders near my outside doors recently, and it needs to stop pronto!!! Spiders are pretty much my number one fear and I literally want to move to a new house every time I see one.
Last summer/fall I placed hedgeapples near all my entrances and didn’t find a single bug in my house after, so I’m anxious to get my hands on some again!
At any rate, it’s been cloudy and grey all day, but thankfully no raaaaain! Not wanting to press my luck, I went for a sweaty 3.5 mile run around 3:30. I tried to go a little earlier, but House Hunters sucked me in. Damned HH ALWAYS wins! It was an especially cool episode set in Portland, OR, featuring a couple with a budget of $1 mil. Ie, it was extremely tough to tear myself away.
Dinner tonight was quick and satisfying. A hot turkey & cheese sammie and some fresh watermelon!
Look at the gooiness! I cut up a pepper jack cheese stick, then melted it with some deli turkey and dijon mustard, all between two slices of EarthGrains 100% Whole Wheat bread.
Woo! I got a little to much dijon in there. Sinuses = cleared!
The watermelon cooled things down. SO juicy and sweet. This is what H2Omelon should taste like!!
5 minutes from ingredients to dinner. Gotta love that.
Off to fold some laundry and prepare myself for the week. This weekend went way too fast, don’t you think?!
‘night!

On a scale of 1-10, how bug-averse are you?
If I’m camping or something, it’s totally fine/expected that there’s going to be bugs around. When I find them in my house though, I feel like they’re invading my personal space!! Is that crazy?
