i pick up funny little seedpods when i walk the dogs around our neighborhood
small rocks and occasionally perfectly preserved dead bugs find there way onto the kitchen windowsill (the tiny grasshopper & the bee-body that survived a trip through the washer and dryer were my favorite)
but i never find any pine cones.
i'm starting to miss pine cones.
making peanut butter pine cone bird feeders.
or watching my grandmother weave them into a wreath.
they were always there and now they're not.
but thanks to lisa congdon, i can visit her collection of cones at
it's a fascinating idea. all those little collections we have, all in one place.
but i wonder, where does she collect all her collections?
You should see my collections... rocks, rusty bits of junk, leaves, and yes, pinecones and seedpods. Mine often land on the kitchen windowsill, too. I wonder why that is. And where have all your pinecones gone?
ReplyDeleteI can send you some lovely cones if you like. I collect little things all the time. I love little pods and seeds. just email me at marchi dot wierson at gmail dot com.
