Welcome to the month of October! It was a wonderful weekend weatherwise, very good walking weather. We went out to dinner with some friends. They are getting ready to move into their new condo in a couple of months. But they've just discovered that the building will only allow one dog, not the two that they have. It seems the real estate agents did not do their jobs properly, having told them this would not be a problem at the outset. That large commission is for a good reason! It's quite a stressful situation for them. They said choosing one dog (which they won't) reminded them of the situation in the movie 'Sophie's Choice' if you have ever seen that. I didn't see it myself but according to google, Sophie had to choose which of her 2 children would go be gassed and which one would go to the labour camp at Auschwitz. And I'm glad I didn't see that movie!
One a more pleasant subject, these are the leaves of a coral bell plant, don't they look gorgeous and shimmery for the season? I read that they can be used to liven up a salad but they are a bit tangy.
