Strange Tree Mutation

I am trying to figure out what happened to my tree, and if this ok…or is this bad and we should chop the tree down.

Over 5 years ago we planted 2 Ash trees in our backyard. This spring when they started to bud we had a freeze, our one tree here as you can see came out nicely in spite of that….



….our other tree did not do anything and we thought it had died. Now here we are like 2 months later and it has sprouted some greenery….but something doesn’t look right….

The “leaves” are in tight small clumps on the branches and even up the trunk…

Is this a fungus?? Did my tree mutate to something different??

New bed for Charlie

I wonder if I wish really really hard....maybe I can fit in my new box...

If I twist around here....

No Simon I do not want a bath right now...

Maybe if I try this angle??..

Ahhh here we go, yes...see I fit!!!!

Now time for a catnap!

Bath Time Fun

It has been a while since I have made bath bombs...and it felt like time to make them again to add to the shop....and why not try a fun experiment while at it. I made 2 for my grandson to be my tester....even though he doesnt know it yet. :)

While at Hobby Lobby I saw these dinosaurs that grow in water, and I thought...how fun would that be to add to a bath bomb to surprise my grandson...

So I buried one into the fizzy...

And packed him all in...

Here is the finished product. I am hoping it is dry enough to not start activating the growth until it is plopped into the tub...will keep you posted.

And Here I Thought I Worked Hard....

Poor lil guy, it must be a lollipop stick and he is attracted to the sugar on it....such a hard life no?

Chopped My Hair Off....

...and I LOVE IT!

I have been in a funk and havent done much of anything with it for years, I have just been getting the ends nipped here and there...well it was time for a change.

Here is my before....

I even had some high/low lights put in, but hard to tell in the picture, but I just needed a small change to brighten it up.

Tuesdays Crush....

This week I am crushin' on my new salad dressing from Olive U.

I picked out Pomegranate Balsamic....The Hubs picked out 18 Year Traditional (which is their best seller.) I also chose another....Organic Tuscan Herb olive oil.

They are great on salads or used as a marinade.... They are fabulous!!

Olive U is located on the third floor of Bashford court...and they ship!!!
