First of all, do you dream in color? I do.
I went to bed last night and had difficulty sleeping so I took a sip of children’s Benedryl. I then had a scary dream about anarchy due to some flea spray that went bad in Washington DC and floated down to Southwest Virginia. In the dream, I was living with an outlaw group near the Nordyke Bridge (up the river on the North Fork from my house) and was a local hero for planting potatoes so we would not starve. I woke up so scared…in spite of being the potato heroine. Can you believe this stuff? Whew!
I think I know how this dream came about. Yesterday evening, I was discussing Sons of Anarchy which is an HBO show about an outlaw motorcycle gang. I was also discussing putting Yukon gold potatoes in the raised bed gardens next year. See how this stuff happens? I don’t know where the fleas come from except that I sleep with a Golden Retriever.
Crazy!
I have a cute girl’s apron as a giveaway. This apron was made by Katie Harris of Mendota, Virginia. I put it in a “heart” because I love aprons.
Here’s what the fabric looks like close up…
All you have to do to enter is to (1) go to the comment section at the end of this blog post and leave a comment or (2) leave a comment on Facebook. If you do both, you’ll be entered twice. I’ll do a random drawing on Sunday morning around 9 am and post the winner.

We have quite a weekend coming up in Mendota. It looks quiet here, but we have so many get togethers. This weekend, we have a Corn Hole tournament and picnic at Dee Dee and Eric Taylor’s house on Saturday. On Sunday we have a big pig pickin’ at the Timmons’ Farm and a big surprise birthday party for one of our most beloved citizens who is turning 96. All three of these events will have over 100 people attending. Here in the country, we come out for food!!

Thank you so much for reading RiverCliff Cottage. I did sleep better!!!
At least you remembered your dream.
I think this apron would be a great present for one of my granddaughters or great granddaughters here on the Mendota farm.
Shall I bring pumpkin bread to the Timmons?
I am sure pumpkin bread will be welcomed. Yum! I am going at 1 pm and dropping food off, grabbing a bite and leaving to go to Ruby’s birthday party at 2 and then returning to the Timmons’ at about 3:30. I hope I see you there.
The dream made me laugh, but the sleeping with a Golden Retriever comment made my heart smile 🙂
