These remind me of Avatar.
And they made me think of pussy toes for the first time in years.
I loved to run through a patch and hear the noise they made against my sneakers when I was too young to know the naughty use of the flower's name.
In eighth grade, my mom owned a consignment store and she had a retro rack that I mined constantly. For awhile I owned a lot of polyester and velour shirts and pants, but my favorite was my pussy willow shirt. I should never have gotten rid of it!

We would make torches out of the pussy willows.
And is there really anything more comfortable than velour? It's almost velvet.
Ah! the horror! what'd those pussy willows ever do to you to deserve that?
Poor man's velvet...my hubby would argue that his Call of Duty pajama pants are the comfiest things on this earth, but I'd have to agree that the velour shirts I wore in middle school were soft AND warm, a big selling point this far north!
Wouldn't recommend trying any of those in a stew though.

They deserved it because they burned well when bundled together. Cat-tails were better though. They were bigger and you could make flaming arrows out of those.
Lots of mysterious fires that summer on the farm for some reason.
Alex--Certainly not! I assume anything that brightly colored is probably not good for you, like Skittles or popsicles.
Cal--I KNEW you were a pyro!
Wait a minute... skittles and popsicles aren't good for you???
Here in Oz the only mushies you can eat are brown underneath and cream to tan on top...anything else is trying to kill you.
In the news here last week 3 dead and one fighting for life after eating mushies found in a forest, they were Asians and thought they were the ones just like home...sad!
Ms A.--Unless you're someone who can get an incredible amount of work done on a sugar high :)
Tempo--With mushies, you must remember to look, not touch or eat!
