Good Morning, in the pm, Don. It's been a beauuuuuuutiful day, all day. Been doing persimmons, ever have those? Bet you don't have persimmon trees. But, maybe you do.
When I get finished with my work, I am going to sit down and start my new novel, MAHAN MOUNTAIN!

LOL...I guess I didn't really feel like it's my place to explain "unfettered access"..because they are represented by an attorney they can ask.

This is the first time I've been on the computer all day. Daddy came down early this morning to visit for a while, then I had a nail appointment at 10am..then I went grocery shopping...so I've had a busy day, too.

So basically you don't care that unfettered access may have led to strangers roaming around the park. Oh I forgot you haven't paid your assessments and probably don't have much there for people to bother. Oh yes I forgot that closing it down is the POA's main goal! Where is the accounting disclosed for property owners that the POA was going to give us?

Was I speaking to you? No. Was I speaking about you? No. Did I address what you posted about? No. I answered DeeJay's question as to whether or not I "straightened" anyone out. The answer was no. The reason? You have an attorney you are represented by that you can ask, that's what you are helping to pay him for.

Did you putting words in my mouth make me look bad? No. Did it make you look dumb? In my opinion, Yes. Do I care? Not particularly. Although I do wish you'd follow your own advice and leave me alone. You're just trying to start a fight again.

<quoted text>Don't be so vain khubbard! My question had nothing to do with you or Dee Jay. It was a security question. I had to let a guy out of the gate 2 nights ago that said he was cleaning his lot. When I asked him his lot and block number he couldn't tell me. Makes me wonder who would let him in? So who has unfettered access and exactly where can they go once in there?

maybe the gentleman felt it was NONE of YOUR bizzzz ya thank?!!!

It became my business when he asked me to let him out of a locked gated community?

So just shoot me for asking a question about RiverBend Security and how it relates to a judge's ruling. You would think the POA would be a little more concerned. Have a good weekend.

Persimmon pudding,My grandma use to make it...Do you know smoking pipes are made from that wood?
We waited till they fell off the tree,then picked them up,if you pull one off the tree and eat it ,your mouth will be bitter for a while.
Always heard you suppose to wait till the first frost,to gather them up,can't remember.

I have recipe for persimmon pudding, usually make the cookies for Chuck..one thing we discovered was persimmon fruitcake. Going to make that, for sure. Delicious. Even if you don't like regular fruitcake.

You can pick them up when they fall, just not off the tree, because that's when they are bitter.
After the first frost, they will come down in bucketsful...the deer love them, so they get their share. Got 2 pints out of the ones I got today.

Don, did you try the channel, MSNBC yet? You may not like it, but, try once, anyway. Tonight at 7 your time, is when the ones I like start. It is definitely "demo in the evening." You might like them. Hardball, Keith Olbermann, and Rachel Maddow. They are only on on week days. They are not all serious, they have fun on the shows.

D.J. how do you keep them till you make something ,can you make like an "apple butter?

The fruit is sticky like and thick, more so than apple butter, when you finish processing it. I found the best way is to put them in a large bowl and carefully rinse, over and over, drain.
I have a little contraption I can't remember the name of, but, it is the size of a cup with holes all over in it, with a double attached handle, and a round flat piece that goes into the cup. I put about 8 of the fruit into it, and press the handle down, scrape the fruit off the outside into another dish. It is easier than it looks.
There are a lot of seeds in a little persimmon. The press I have is stainless steel.

I fill freezer containers, about a pint size, and freeze. They keep for a long time. I don't keep anything frozen past a couple years. Don't know how good after that.

I tried several ways to strain before this one. It is the best way for me. If you have persimmon trees and want to do this, go to Ace Hardware and describe the tool, they either have or order anything. Unless WalMart has them.

I imagine you can find lots of recipes on the internet for persimmons, if not, I can post some.

Hope this was not TMI. Too much info!

It is ok to keep the processed persimmons in the refrigetator for a few days, like any other fruit, but I wouldn't keep the unprocessed ones in fridge for long.

I might add, when we came here, I had never seen a persimmon tree, let alone the fruit, and didn't have a computer, so had to learn all that I am doing by trial and error. I went to Mt. Home, and found a persimmon pamphlet, and that is where I got my recipes.

I started out making persimmon Cakes in a Jar, little too strong and heavy so I added half apple sauce, this from the recipe Applesause Cake in a Jar. That was good. Then I found the recipe for the fruitcake, prob. in that little recipe book.
The cookies are good, also, we were not too crazy about the pudding. Maybe some have a better recipe than the one in the little pamphlet.

[Don_n_Michigan]

Has any one ,ever watched a possum that ate persimmons seeds??
They will eat those seeds,and got potty for at least 30 minutes.
True story,but the fruit does not bother us.
Do not try and catch one,with your hands,they could bite it off.
All they are is one big grease ball,if you do not think so,try cooking one.
Some people like them,I do not..

You'll notice however, that at this point, Clifton claims he is the one responsible for providing security to the park. If what you say is true, then at this time you need to take your concerns up with him.

Again, hurting your own cause, madam posse president.

There's a big persimmon tree just across the road from my house. They're falling off the tree as we speak. Won't they rot if they lay there that long? I know nothing about persimmons.

I'm not Don, KH, but, will answer. He can jump in and answer if he wants, also.

It is best if you pick them up as soon as you see them fall, and if there are enough that are not mashed, just pull off the stem as you pick them up and when you get what you want, take them in and follow the rest of my instructions above, or find some somewhere else. Your mom prob. knows. I have tried to put on here, exactly how I do it, right down to the press I use. The persimmons will be golden in color and no wrinkles if they are fresh. When they wrinkle, meaning dry out, or turn dark, I don't use them. If you can't find recipes on the computer, let me know, I have some.
You can prob. find instructions from beginning to end, there, also...I just learned from doing. There will be black specks through the fruit, doesn't hurt, you could prob. squeeze the fruit in cheese cloth and get the clear fruit. I don't do that.
