It’s not easy being green
In the grand feast of life, green veggies often get a bad rap. I remember Kermit the frog used to lament, “It’s not easy being green.” Like Kermit, the humble green vegetable often finds itself ignored, disdained, picked last from the buffet array, and readily pushed to the side of the plate.
Trout Tales
The house was packed and some mules were Eeore-ly morose after taking to the court on Saturday for the Exeter FFA Booster Club’s donkey basketball games. While some players managed to kick their equine to a trot, others, like in this moment, were as stubborn as their namesakes and made life difficult for folks just trying to get to the hoop. I thought my kids were stubborn, but they got nothing on these burros! Speaking of kids, shout out to Candy the goat for strolling into the SWMO Restore last week. We hope those animal crackers nourished her as she prepares to give birth soon!
