Ben Masaki I always take home giant pinecones this time of year. They were lovely this year, and covered in pitch! They open up very nicely if placed beside a warm fireplace. Aside from that, I'll pick the last grasses and braid/weave them together for the candles. And, of course, glut myself on turkey! whee
Depending on which tree you get the pitch from, you can turn it into some really powerful glue. 3nodding
I thought it was also edible, but should only be eaten in small amounts due to the high level of nutrients or.. something of the sort. Unfortunately, at the moment I can only find the information about the glue, so I can't vouch for that.
I don't celebrate a harvest festival, because at the moment, I'm stuck in a bit of a rut, religiously/spiritually(/heck, anything really) speaking, and there's nothing happening in my community that deals with it, insofar as I know.
I do intend to help my mom with the preparation of apple-y things (we'll probably make apple, uh, sauce, I think it's called, and some other .. stuff that you make.. from apples) since an uncle of mine brought over a sh, er, a rather large amount today.
I was also going to learn how to make blackberry jam, but they weren't ripe enough yet, so the old man who will be teaching me hasn't yet had reason to call.
