Wood Ear (Tree Ear)
Considered an edible and medicinal mushroom. A closely related species is cultivated in Asia and can be found in the United States in Asian markets. In Chinese, its name is “Hei mu-er.” You may have eaten it in Chinese hot and sour soup. The wood ear has been reported to positively affect blood coagulation and decrease blood cholesterol levels. Since it is a popular edible mushroom in China, it may contribute to the low incidence of heart disease there. (source: Missouri Department of Conservation)
Different lighting
DIY juggling balls: rice into plastic sandwich bags, into a balloon with the neck of the balloon cut off, then another balloon over that (to cover the opening) Click here for more detailed instructions.

Unless there is snow, I guess all woods look the same in November! Ours look similar, rusty leaves and gray trunks with moss. Great job on the arrangements – the lion tails are really tall!
I love the look ‘Zilla is giving her dad at the card game. The thought bubble reads “Watch out, wise guy, I have the winning hand here!” (for everyone to see) ;-)
Great lights – love the pumpkin coach – perfect for the pumpkin patch. Can’t believe it is Dec. whoa, time is flying. In a couple of days it will be Christmas! Have an exciting kid-filled season. Kids are the best part of the holiday. :-)
Thanks for the comments; I’m behind on replies :)
