Don't count your chickens...er...grapes
Patiently, I waited for my beautiful grapes to ripen. I didn't dare count the lovely bunches weighing down the vines until just a bit before they were ripe, not wanting to tempt a hail storm. I gently covered a few bunches to protect them, just in case. I had a plan, lots and lots of lovely grape juice. Alas, this is all I got. The bowl measures about 4 1/2 inches across. I waited one day too long. At least I can say that the raccoons in my woods have good taste.
