Bird-pecked. They're spoiled and inedible if I wait too long to clear
them from the yard. I used to have a golden retriever that festooned his
fur with them if I didn't keep them cleaned up.
I have phobias of my ability to can/preserve, ticks and hydrofluoric
acid. Don't tell my enemies.
You would have a ball with my apricot rain. I think it's in early August.
