It's Tuesday, the Random Day. Thanks to The UnMom. I wish I could be truly random today but it's not my lot. Why, you ask? My constant posting topic lately...my hubby's garden. The corn came in over the weekend; all 228 ears of it. I will do a solo post on its beauty and bounty. BUT I AM TALKING ABOUT 228 FREAKIN' EARS OF CORN. And that was only the first harvest. We had 248 ears last year and you know men - more, more more!
Today I get more eggplants. Enough eggplants that I need to make eggplant lasagne and freeze it or the eggplants will rot before I can use. them. Fortunately I still have ricotta left from my cheese making odyssey of the other day. I have to make the sauce and assemble the buggers and then put them in the freezer. I know I will appreciate them later but right now I just want to do anything NOT associated with the garden.
I am sure you want to read ANYTHING not associated with the garden.
My buck goat Michael is out to get me. He thinks I am a doe and he wants me. This is not good as he outweighs me. I have a bruise on my thigh that is in the exact shape of his horn. He got annoyed at me when I wouldn't erm, cooperate. I told him he is this close to the crock pot. I am not sure he totally comprehended.
I am making butter today. My girlfriend has a milk cow and has tremendous amounts of cream. I now have tremendous amounts of cream. Wish me luck.
Why, WHY does my cat go in and out all day long looking at a food bowl that does not change? Does she think it is magic and by returning it will suddenly hold tuna or something? She drives me crazy!
That's it. The eggplants have arrived I have a LOT of work ahead of me. So head off to The UnMom and get your Random on.

Can't you carry a bat or something in with that maniac buck?? They make some popper like bats that make sound more than whip and then you could flog him a little!!!!
And OMG on corn. Men and their corn. I just dont know what to say. I have one too.
Jimmie cat-same thing. Cries for more food with a full bowl. Torturous!
I enjoy hearing about you garden, as mine is just doing horribly this year, ugh. Glad someone is getting a harvest!
Julia - it's somewhat ironic but the thing that works best is water. They all hate to get wet so now I take a bucket of water in with me and he steers clear. Something so benign and the stupid buck is afraid of it. heh heh
Marlene - last year our garden did well but this year it is doing AMAZING. I am sorry yours is not producing for you. Want a zucchini?
