So my friends and neighbors get some of my largess. I did make apple butter and elderberry syrup. Fie on anyone who is harassing you. There is a special place in hell for such sorry beings. Your beautiful children...beth coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290135595711572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-44540881391131347842020-08-13T09:21:19.285-07:002020-08-13T09:21:19.285-07:00I'm so glad your sons are home and spending ti...I'm so glad your sons are home and spending time with you and Sophie.

I laughed when I watched the gazpacho clip and connected the dots to your photo. I’m so sorry your friend had Covid (a young friend of ours, as well, was quite ill) but glad both our friends are recovering. Glad you are surviving, in spite of everything. May grifters everywhere (including our current president) fall into giant vats of gazpacho and forget how to drink or swim.
