Stasui and Anna

 I've been making pomanders.  I have a very sore pointer finger.


 I was taking some pics at the guest house and I thought I would show you Stasui and Anna.  They are my Polish cooks.


 Stasui keeps a close eye on me when I am cooking.  He is watching for mistakes.


 Anna thinks he is full of shit.


 As I interact with the Polish cooks, The W's race around in their woods.  There are bad kitties and squirrels to be dealt with.

 They look high and low.

 Winnie is the true hunter, Willie just sort of follows her direction.

But they are both good power nappers once they have reconnoitered the area.

I am glad you have such fierce protectors. They have a lovely woodland. I think the Polish cooks would give me the heebiejeebies.

Mmmmm, clove-studded oranges smell so good! Hint -- use a thimble.

you can't use a thimble, it breaks the heads on the cloves.

I loved what you said about Stasui and Anna. So cute. I often wonder what would our dogs ever do if they caught a squirrel or cat. I often wonder.

I love the pictures, as usual. My mum once made pomanders, I think. we also made something similar with Wolfie for Christmas once. A decorated orange with a candle stuck in it.

I have a soft thimble and a leather thimble that are soft as my finger and probably would not break the clove.

Stasui and Anna are awesome!!! I love it! Oh your poor finger...I had "pommander finger" last year too. I have six oranges in the freezer that have been there for months, I have to defrost them and get going on mine too. The W's are great nappers!!

You should use a silicone thimble. They work great. I used mine to stud kumquats. I hung them on the tiny tree on the front porch last year.
