and my ten thousand and counting probably live out behind the stone wall in the meadow trying not to end up as lunch for a fox. With my luck I'm sure that was a mating pair...
They are tart, primarily used for applesauce and have a quality when made into sauce that I’ve not found in another apple, which I can’t adequately describe other than really good to my taste buds.

They look kinda like little deer.

I love both cherry and peach cobbler!
Cobbler isn't popular in Ireland or UK. It's somewhat like a crumble, but the crumble is large blobs of delicately sweet dough which offsets the sweet/sour richness of the cooked fruit. I usually prefer a red plum variant. It tends to be rather tart.
Description
Cobbler is a dish consisting of a fruit or savoury filling poured into a large baking dish and covered with a batter, biscuit, or dumpling before being baked. Some cobbler recipes, especially in the American south, resemble a thick-crusted, deep-dish pie with both a top and bottom crust. Wikipedia
BlackBerry cobbler.

Any particular reason why?
That is what I felt about this past Thursday, Friday and Saturday, but that was for personal reasons, to do with the passing of my mother six months ago.
Not really, I guess I just woke up tired. We had a very powerful thunderstorm last night, so I assume my sleep wasn't of much quality.
I am also pondering what is my "next step" (workwise), so to speak as there's some signal among all the noise that it's time to think about it.
Might I suggest throwing rocks at a bottle on a stump while shouting the options you have until you hit the bottle and do whatever the last thing you shouted was?
Ah the Tibetan method
My friend, you just made my day! (I fear that with my hand eye coordination I'll end up unemployed!)

My brother employs a cost benefit analysis when pondering such matters and says it often provides food for thought and can be a very valuable exercise as long as you are honest with yourself - after all, this need not be shown to anyone else, it is to stimulate contemplation for yourself: Two lines - vertical - down a page, and enumerated - written - reasons pro and con, or against (whatever the question, or issue, is) in each side.

That's why you have to go to Tibet and do it. There's more open space there.Ah the Tibetan method

I've heard the Mojave desert is also sufficiently open, but I wouldn't want to go there this time of year.
Tibet is on my bucket list. Not much due to spirituality, but for actual historical interest (for example, same as Machu Picchu).
As for the desert, yeah I'd avoid it... I mean, even TX is quite hot right now
It’s been warm all day here in the UK, but not sunny.
I have a photographer coming tomorrow to take photos of our house. However if they are not professional enough, I might just shoot my own.
But the sale of my house where I have lived these past 17 years and the purchase of the next are very much on my mind.

As I have said elsewhere, the very best of luck with it.
Temperatures, which have been surprisingly cool for this time of year, are set to increase this coming week, (although mainland Europe is set for a scorcher).
Lol. I was checking the coming weather on my iPhone and it said hot and sunny all week. I thought that was strange, then I realised it was showing Barcelona!
Yes, a heatwave is forecast for Europe; here, today is the first day where it is not cool, but almost pleasantly warm.
Agreed. temperature wise, 20-30C is the sweet spot for me. I can handle up to 33-34C relatively well, but do feel uncomfortable when it goes over that.
In Georgia (Caucasus Georgia), one summer it was 42-44C for around two months, which was torture - it was too hot to sleep comfortably at night, and I loathe air conditioning, though I have since had to learn to live with it, when I work in countries with hot climates.
What's on my mind this afternoon is yesterday. Specifically, cadging a ride with the guy who usually mows my lawn and who was heading into town for some shopping. I just wanted to hit up the ATM and do a little grocery shopping. Upon exiting his vehicle in my driveway I thought to hand him the money for the next mowing plus a little for his trouble, saying casually, "So you'll take this now and then just mow whenever you get a chance during the week, eh? Thanks for the ride into town." Then today I awoke to this forecast of weather:
Well anyway looks like maybe the season of furnace-heat is finally over for the 2018-19 winter.
