This is the scene every morning in my garden now. It's like my vegetables have been raging all night long and this is the aftermath. Frat party sponsored by the cucumbers!!
Actually, this is my pathetic attempt to keep the soon to be terminated rat(s) away from my precious seedlings until they're too big to mess with. I took dixie cups, cut holes in to allow for air circulation, and placed them over the seedlings. It looks ridiculous, but when I'm eating my own lettuce in 2 months, it will all seem worth it.
On a totally unrelated note...
First off, let me say that for all my snarky yet affectionate stories about the Tall One- I love him to death. Can't get enough of him, really sad he's leaving me for 10 days to go have fun at the El Sal house. And surf 80 degree water. And drink Bahias w/ lime while floating in the pool. Anyway, that being said- he submarined my pre-exam breakfast this morning.
I have to buy two kinds of milk in our house- nonfat for me, 1% for him. I get a lot of flack for the nonfat, about how it's milk flavored water, not real milk, blah, blah, blah. Well, he ran out of his milk and decided to drink the rest of mine last night- only I didn't know. So I get up for my first OB exam, that has been driving me nuts for about a week and causing me headaches, pour myself some Cheerios and top them off with banana, open the fridge to get the milk and... all we got is cherry juice, OJ and margarita mix. I even considered for about 3 seconds taking the remaining 1/4 cup of fat free half & half and diluting it with water, but decided I had my limits.
So I went to the corner market to get a little one serving carton. They're sold out!!!! And I'm out of time. So while driving to school, I got in touch with my inner toddler and proceeded to eat my Cheerios and bananas dry, with my fingers. I started out with the three digit combo of thumb-forefinger-middle finger, but by the end it was all fingers, just cramming it in. Good times. And I bought more milk after class.
FRAT PARTY!!!
