Dandelions
Over the climbing meadows,
Where swallow-shadows float,
These are the
small gold buttons
On earth’s green, windy coat.

Our cat, Sugar Brains (now long gone) used to love peas. Well, at least peas that had been in tuna casserole. When Moose was about 5 he insisted that no one in their right mind would ever like peas. So I proved to him that even the cat loved peas. (In tuna casserole) I bet Buttermilk would lo-o-ove peas too. (At least, in tuna casserole)

I LOVE that name!! May have to steal it
He DOES love peas actually–reasoning/games like that are the mark of a good Mom! The best thing I ever told my boys was that their arms would fall off if they didn’t hug their Mommy EVERY DAY! Linden used to use it as an excuse to leave bed after being tucked in–he would come out looking all sweet and say ” My arms are woose!” worked every time too!

Now if my boys worked that hard to get a pea on the fork it usually meant they were about to flick it at each other. Our Sophie cat loves corn on the cob, she’s a shy stay away cat but comes right around when the corn is done.

The temperature up in the corner (widget thingy to use the technical term) says that it is 44 degrees in Minnesota right now. Burrrrr. If I had the time I would look up the temperature in all kinds of places just to have a reality check.
It is way cool here for this time of year–61 degrees, but the AC will be on later today.

Yeah–it got lower than that last night–says 52 now–we have 80 for the forecast and the sun is out and shining brightly already!! It’s GARDEN for me!
I see a great marketing ploy in your idea–weather that’s worse than where I am dot com—people would flock to it!
