On the bright side, I'll have some rotten maters fer sale at the next council meetin'. Hee hee!
Tee hee! Sounds as though you might make a fortune on that venture alone, Pappy! Get there early to avoid the rush!!

| Hee hee. I wonder if flingin' rotten maters is protected under the first amendment as a type o' petition fer redress o' grievences? It ought to at least be covered as a pusuit o' happiness activity.

| Pappy You need to buy your Tomato's some blossom end rot medicine. Home made medicine probably won't help the tomatoes any but you might drink it while doctering on the tomatoes.

| Nice rain over here in Stokesdale today. I saw some bluebirds waterskiing in the backyard and two chipmunks floating by in a raft. Praise Our Lord who always answers our prayers.

Morning All!! It is gorgeous out this morning. The air smells clean. The birds are singing at the top of their lungs. The grass is greeing up already. We got a little over 1.6 inches of rain at our house. Nice quiet soaking rain. All the gardens will benefit from this.
Everybody have a great day!! Practice a random act of kindness. Isn't it amazing how good it makes you feel?

You reckon it would work on my bald spot? Or am I thinkin' of the wrong end?
No eatn' maters yet, Mr Mike. The bacon's all gone too, fer some reason.

| Anybody ever looked into thegrocerygame.com? I seent some lady talkin' 'bout it on the TV news this mornin'. It looked interestin', but it costs money to participate, it sounds like. Besides, what if all the great deals are on things I don't want? She saved a lot o' money by buyin' 4 cans o' air fresh'ner fer 14ยข each and that sort o' thing. I can save even more money than that by not buyin' any cans o' air fresh'ner. Mammy might be in the market fer some though...

INterestin' that you should bring up air freshner Pappy.... Brings to mind somethin' that happened to me this weekend.....Well, not TO me, but near me....
Warning! CHEESY story ahead.....
Have any of you ever been the victim of what Lacka and I like to call "The funeral parlor giggles"? This affliction usually occurs when you're at church or at a funeral or one of those stuffy "State Affairs" where laughter is socially forbidden.......
So we're at this wedding at the country club this weekend.... We don't turn out to the country club too often so we were dressed to the nines, and tryin' to show that we we are capable of exhibiting a tiny bit of decorum when the situation calls for it....
There were 22 of us on the groom's side and a bunch of other people on the bride's side. Lots of tables behind us, also full of people. To make a long story short, just after the MOB (that's mother of the bride) was seated, there was a pretty long pause between Pachabel and the wedding march. At that exact moment, the groom's sister, sitting two rows in front of me, broke wind.
If I'm lyin' I'm dyin.
Most of us were adults. We know that kind of thing is just a natural step in the digestion process, and normally we would just blow it off so to speak and let it pass.....
BUT NO........
22 sets of shoulders started shaking and the Cracker just lost it. It was just all I could do not to snort! I tried to focus on the draperies, my dead dog, and the fly that kept landing on the bride's nose which she would continually bat away with her poor little bouquet.
I would gain my composure momentarily, wipe the tears from my eyes and then lose it again. I laughed throughout the entire wedding and heard none of the ceremony.
It was absolutely the most painful 15 minutes of my life.
And we got the nastiest looks from the people on the bride's side ...imagine that....and I'm sure they're real thrilled to be married into such a "classy" family....
The groom's sister says it was her shoe that made the noise.
That's what I would say too......

Morning All!! It is summer on the farm. What a lovely warm summery morning. The moon is waning but you can still see it early in the morning. The chicks are growing and so far the sankes have not come back. Learned from a fellow up the road that I could have worse problems. He has a fox that is carrying off his chickens in broad day light. Nice to know we have foxes with so many cayotes around. The cayotes compete for the same territory.
Pappy tied up my maters lasnight. Got some baseball size tomatoes. Not turning yet though.
Cracker the brides family should be happy that their daughters wedding is probably one your family will never forget. Nothing more fun than an unforgettable event. They do probably wish it would be remembered for other things but, you know, that's their problem.
Have a good day. Have to go check out Winston Salem today. Love Fresh Market so maybe I will have time to check them out.
