Picking Mulberries (2005-06-05)
Once again, the mulberry tree nextdoor is full of new leaves and fruits before we even noticed. It's like one day the branches are bare and then boom!...the whole tree is covered with foilage and red berries the next day.The other day, I spent just a few minutes and picked enough
mulberries to fill a small bowl, and they were so sweet. I also
saw a very fat and bright green caterpillar with beady eyes and stubby
"feet" making its way up the pillar in front of our apartment. If
it is a silkworm, it has found paradise.
