“Didn’t see another way to submit…the August article about persimmon seeds said to mention if we opened one. We cut open 2 seeds, in Jefferson City, Missouri, and the first one didn’t have anything that we could make out. The second one that we opened, from a different persimmon, definitely had a spoon. First time I’ve ever opened one…heard about it, but never done it or actually seen one.”

I enjoy this time of the year. I get reports about what the “animals, birds and insects” are saying about the upcoming winter. The persimmon seed is another one we hear about often. When cut in two pieces, the persimmon seed will display one of three symbols.

> A knife shape indicates a cold and icy winter (where the wind cuts through you like a knife).

> A fork shape is an indicator of a mild winter.

> A spoon shape stands for a shovel to dig out the snow.

I have heard from 3 individuals in the Carolinas and now, Missouri, that the seed calls for snow and lots of it. Interesting.

Daylight Saving Time ended on Sunday morning - 2am. So, we’ve gone through the first cycle of 4 additional weeks. How did this impact your life?? If you flip to our home page, you can vote for the DST Plan as voted by Congress. The purpose was to save energy. Did it work?? Tell us.
