My family already thinks I'm nuts, but thanks to The 3 Foragers, I have collected foxtail grass seeds to dry and eat (see disclaimer on blog, always get expert advice when foraging).

Hedge Apple Tree ~ Keeping the spiders away
This is what a hedge apple tree looks like. My mother brought me 3 more bags of hedge apples today. I will spread them out tomorrow. I had a garden spider, a little bigger than a quarter, in my shower this morning. So far, other the finding one in my shower, the hedge apples are working at keeping the spiders out. I will also use chestnuts in our drawers, as suggested by another follower.
