Your Favorite Hat
©2018 David Moody

I want to be your favorite hat
The one that fits just right
And I'd never give you hat hair
Or I could be your pillow
Bring you peace of mind at night
Or maybe something like that there

If I could be your shirt and
I could keep your heart from hurtin'
Well, you know that I would now
Or I could be your pants
And you could get up and dance
It would only do you good now

I'll be your clown, I'll be your fool
Master your favorite tool and work it just right
I'll be your slave, I'll be your cook
I'll be your favorite book to read by moonlight
I'll be your man, your one true love
Because you fit me like a glove that's not too tight
Because when push comes to shove
You know what I've been thinking of and we don't fight

I want to be your comfort food
That always puts you in the mood
And makes you feel good when you eat me

I want to write your favorite song
So you can sing along
Whenever the mood's right - like right now
But if you can't go for that,
I'd rather be your favorite hat

How many are enough?

"You're probably wondering why I called you all here this evening..."






Here comes Winter &...MICE!

It turns out, mice hate the smell of peppermint. Everything we humans like about it – the sharpness, the coolness, the sweetness, the menthol – makes them want to turn tail and run the other direction, making it an ideal natural repellant. Bulk Herb Stores’s Shoshanna’s Kitchen first turned us on to the idea, and she recommends harnessing peppermint’s power in three ways:

  1. Peppermint Plants
  2. The easiest way to prevent a mouse invastion in the first place is to post peppermint plant sentries around your home. Plant as many as you want outside your home for protection andand for nice, fresh peppermint leaves to use in your cooking.

  3. Peppermint Sock
  4. This method is easy for when you want a quick solution. Drop some dried peppermint in a sock and tie it off, then place the socks around your home near holes, gaps, or any other places you think pests might be gathering.

  5. DIY Spray
  6. Shoshanna’s favorite method is an easy-to-make spray. Boil some water, then steep some dried peppermint the same way you would if you were making tea or coffee. When you get a nice, rich concentration, strain out the grounds and allow the mixture to cool. Then, simply transfer it to a plastic spray bottle and spray away! Use it as an additional cleaning spray in cabinets where you’ve found evidence of rodent activity, saturate your closets, and generally spray wherever you think you need a little repelling peppermint power.
Of course, sometimes you need a little extra power, and for that, you can turn to extra concentrated versions of peppermint via peppermint oil. The Kitchn recommends using peppermint oil as you spray, similarly to Shoshanna’s Kitchen. Other people, like How To Get Rid Of Mice.com, recommend saturating cotton balls in peppermint oil and leaving them around your home wherever you want the mice to leave.
Even better? It’s not just mice that will run away from peppermint. It repels aphids, cabbage looper, flea beetles, squash bugs, whiteflies, ants, mosquitoes, and bees! And, best of all, it’s a simple, cheap, humane, and all-natural method for ridding your home of pests.
It’s so good to know that we have all-natural options for dealing with mice and other pests! Have you ever tried using peppermint this way? Do you know of any other no-kill or gentle methods for dealing with an infestation, or do you prefer old-fashioned traps?  Do you have any tips?  Leave it in a comment below and thanks for dropping by!!!
