Are you kidding me?

Yesterday morning I gave my handsome husband a bag of some of our extra garden goodies to pass along to farmer Ted (who grows corn and pumpkins) as a thank you for gifting us all that free corn a few weeks back......
Some yummy heirloom tomatoes, fresh green beans and some potato's.

On his way home he called to tell me farmer Ted GAVE HIM SOME MORE CORN....
he tried to refuse ....several times....but farmer Ted gave it to him anyway.....
He was coming home with 4 cases of free corn.......
Holy crackers....
more corn?
I don't think I have room for 4 more cases of corn.......

So I made a few quick phone calls and called him back to tell him to drop off 1 case to Girly Girls house and another to the Hunter Man (He hunts EVERYTHING and I always gift my extra produce to him)......
and so instead of coming home with 4 cases of corn he came home with this:
2 cases of corn and a sack full of (obviously free range and organic) buffalo meat......
(from the Hunter Man)
whooo hooo ...more corn and now Buffalo.....pretty cool if you ask me.
I have not been to the grocery store once yet.....only 119 days to go...
Plus....get this...we were invited to a bbq tonight.....I said I'd bring corn and a carrot cake.....
but after making the 6 layer carrot cake this morning.....I was feeling kinda hungry...
so I cut a slice.....I couldn't resist....it looked so goooood.
Is that wrong? Would you be offended if your friend showed up at your house with a BEAUTIFUL CAKE ...that she took a slice out of?

I'd have to say....I would not be offended.
and that's my official opinion on the matter.

FYI: no one has turned in the key to the imaginary lost and found yet.

  1. Sorry about your keys, I'll keep an eye out for them. Who knows they could be heading our way. I had a ground squirrel steal mine once. We had just got back from hiking up to a mountain lake and I had left the keys on the top of my tire so as not to lose them while out and about. It's pretty amusing now but not so much at the time. I never did get them back, to this day they are probably sitting in a little below ground nest with a bunch of other unwary travelers trinkets.

    I'm curious as to what kind of dark tomatoes you have in the above picture. Krim, Cherokee, or Paul Robeson? If they are Paul's what do you think of the flavor, I thought ours tasted terrible this year. The other two were delicious as always.

  2. Mr. H...hey thanks for keeping an eye out for my key....you never know....a squirrel could have swallowed it then took a 1,000mile journey and ended up in Idaho....if that's the case...let me know.....we can sell the story to the tabloids......
    Dark tomato on top left is Japanese Black Trifele....average taste. Bottom left with splits around stem...Cherokee Purple....the best tomato in the world.....

I LOVE comments BUT if you know who we are...due to the fact that we are currently enrolled in the international witness relocation program because of a moon shining incident in Dingle, Ireland involving 3 Mutton, a pair of red shoes and a road flare .... please do not reveal our personal information.... You know.... like names, places, or our favorite brand of toilet paper :) Hey, thanks!
