Well, I went out to the garden and dug some potatoes and picked some squash. I've just been generally a bit down today.
Then...I got stung by a wasp on my ear lobe and my face and neck swelled up pretty badly. I took a handful of benadryl right after it happened so I guess it could have been worse. I get stung about five times during the summer...but I seem to be having more and more serious reactions to the stings than I used to.
Anyway...I've been running around with my ear covered in meat tenderizer all day.
So...the air has been too hazy for picture taking....so I don't have a photo for you.
But I did make an apple pie.
I hope you are having a very happy Sunday.
Meat tenderizer?
ReplyDeleteReally?
I thought that was just for removing blood stains.
I had an extremely happy Sunday, thank you -- it was the best Druid Grove meeting of the year.
ReplyDeleteI think that allergic reactions to stings become more serious the more you get stung. At least that's the old wives' tale I've heard. What a bugger of a place to be stung - earlobe!!!
Take a big Plantain leaf and chew it so it is good and mushy with spit.
ReplyDeletePut the wad of mushy Plantain leaf on the sting. Voila! no more sting.
