When are we leaving


The Master Gardening group I am involved in had a picnic on Sunday at a wonderful farm within the city. I thought this would be a great thing for the kid's to see. This was the first one I ever went to because I am a new member. Little did I know I would be the only one there who brought their whole family. Most people came alone and just a few brought their husbands.
Aaron only went because I told him there would be food. He started moaning immediately that he was STAAAARVING and could not wait or he would DIIIIE. We did eat soon and the food was great, for an adult. This was a gardening group. There was lots of great salads and veggie lasagna, things made with grains. Pretty much nothing my kids would eat.
Kurt told Aaron as he was complaining that "It is a big world of food out there"
Aaron's reply "I know, and I am exploring the meats"
So dinner for them was cheese & crackers and enough chocolate and cookies to frazzle a very large adult.
There was heirloom tomato tasting. Again, nice for me, boring for them.
There were chickens to feed which was fun. One breed they had did not have feathers on it's neck. It looked like a chicken head on top of a penis and 2 balls then a chickens body. Frightening.
I think it made the whole picnic worthwhile.
