Every year my brother dared me to bite into a green one. And every year I did, because he said if I didn't then I couldn't play with him and the other boys. And wouldn't you know? Sometimes he still didn't let me play and I suffered that inside-out mouth for naught.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-36570772345877788082011-10-02T18:09:29.818-04:002011-10-02T18:09:29.818-04:00What tiny persimmons, I would enjoy watching the f...What tiny persimmons, I would enjoy watching the feasting that is going on.Marilyn & Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00851884880790561276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-10153778946458799302011-10-02T14:39:49.283-04:002011-10-02T14:39:49.283-04:00Oh, what a wonderful surprise: I love those tiny w...Oh, what a wonderful surprise: I love those tiny wild persimmons! I used to collect them along the Potomac river. They were full of flavor, especially after the nights turned cooler. Back in Rome I knew quite a few persimmon trees. Those shiny orange fruits on their dark branches against the blue November sky were harbingers of winter.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-30280705911209549262011-10-02T13:10:28.404-04:002011-10-02T13:10:28.404-04:00Hello Vicki

This is my great grandfather. I was happy to see someone reading it. He was quite a character. I like persimmons also, I think i like paw paws' better. Its hard to get to those before the groundhogs do. I love black walnuts also. Me and my sons crack them and make candy with them like my grand parents did. Mamaw always said, "The familly will always gather together for cracking nuts. They like the candy!" and would laugh.Amanda Rose ...https://www.blogger.com/profile/09372856577074322698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-33216517141414513952011-10-02T00:19:05.106-04:002011-10-02T00:19:05.106-04:00My neighbor has a tree that's loaded with pers...My neighbor has a tree that's loaded with persimmons, but they are bigger than those. When my Dad was living, he always mentioned me asking for some, he loved them. I never did. Now, when I see the tree loaded down with them, I think of Dad and wonder why I never tried to get them for him.Ms. Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263882972749791087noreply@blogger.com
