ON THE BACK BURNER

It was a beautiful fall day here, except that it is summer. I looked for leaves turning, but not yet.My garden really looks good. I need more grass seed. My plan is to grow grass on  both sides of a foot path that leads to my sons work shop and studio. So far I  have done one side. When I go to pick up the groceries that I ordered, I will get more seed.First I bought a pound bag. Then another pound bag. Then a 2 pound bag. I should have bought the super sized one and be done with it.Why is the abbreviation for pound, lb.? One of my plants is being attacked by slugs. The slugs that I have seen are the size of a small banana.I think  that they are actually called banana slugs. They are disgusting. I heard that if you put out beer in a saucer, they are attracted  to that . My daughter in law swears that she saw a bunch of slugs in a saucer of beer, left them to go out and when she came back, they were gone. She figures that they were just sleeping off a drunken  binge, woke up and crawled away. I am not sure what the moral of this story is. Wonder what brand they like?
