MoJo is MIA


Above is My Stash for you know what, this might jog your  memory as to what I save the pine cones for. If photo doesn't jog it Click Here.



Above is how they look when I pick them up, closed tight. Below is what they do in a couple of days


Below is fully open. I had about 25 opened ones, I said to Bob, what did you do with my pine cones? He said I did not touch the pine cones. Well, half of them are MIA... so where are they???


the answer below.... the little devils carry them off, sit in the tree, chew until they get the seed out, and drop those sharp pointy thingy's on the ground for my bare feet to find.

(yes, MadSnapper has lost her bloggin mojo and am forced to do yada yada blah blah)

  1. I liked this. And that cute little furry guy. I wish we had them here. But cactus is not on their appetite list, I suppose.

  5. Ha! Squirrels do enjoy the seeds! I wonder what my husband would say if I collected a little stash of pine cones to burn. I bet the aroma is wonderful!

  6. Just think of the pleasure those little squirrels are getting from your pine cones! :-)

    I wonder if our mojos are having a good time together. Mine seems to be missing too. Maybe it's the time of year.

  14. No! Your mojo's still working. I had forgotten your pine cone fireplace and enjoyed the refresher. Burning pine cones is entertainment for me, both in our fireplace at home and in a campfire when we are camping.

    No wonder Hubby calls me a "cheap date."

  15. Welcome to the club....
    Sometimes the MOJO is hard to find that's for sure.
    Love your shots anyway and the personality that comes through.

  17. This doesn't look like losing your mojo to me. Awesome macros on the pine cones.
    I kept finding little pieces on pine cone on the living room floor and couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Finally figured out Duke was taking them out of the basket I have them in and chewing on them

  18. Girl I can't quit laughing! I had a bucket full on the porch and those darn tree rats stole mine too!

  19. Hey, a squirrel has to make a living too and those pine nuts are tasty. He is a little cutie. I should gather a few out of our yard before I start raking and putting them in the debris can.

  26. LOL..I have not lost my mojo...but nothing much is happening in my life to blog about...but maybe it is not suppose to...it keeps me looking deeper at the life around me that is simplistic but very much my real and normal daily life.

  28. I remember your pine cones and what you used them for... Surely you cannot stay angry at that cute squirrel, though! I did not know what MIA stood for, had to look it up. We all have days feeling like that, no panic.

  29. Those squirrels can be a bit pesky.

  30. So the squirrels are taking your pine cones - why those dirty little thieves. I have two sets of families in my attic now - I hate those little critters! lol sandie

  32. Why did Bob have a pot for melting lead? Roger has one, not has two that are electric, but he also had a pot he melted it in and made ingots. He made his own bullets and also sinkers for fishing. I wondered if Bob had it for fishing or for something with his model airplanes. (I am so tired I first spelled airplanes as airplains...)
