Number Five Squash

Sharing a new layout with a photo of my precious granddaughter, Trinity, this morning! But first - gotta tell you about my little laugh I had yesterday. Went out to my garden to pick beans and squash. Got around to the zucchini and I knew I had four or five ready. Well - the leaves have gone nuts and I figured out how to thin them out around a squash I pick. Came to the fourth squash that was ready. Mind you - I'd lost my dad-gum clippers somewhere in the garden during the day before - where they were punished by the rain that poured on us later that day. So - I'm using a steak knife to cut squash. Hey - it works, okay? Anyway - I get number four squash cut. I get a few leaves chopped out of the mess. I find one more leaf to shred until I win. Yank it out of there and what do I find? Heh... one that got away from me. Ohhhhh, yeahhhhh - number five squash. That puppy was a foot long and about six inches wide! Bet it weighed over two pounds! Of course - it was of absolutely no use to us by then. Probably would have been a treasure for some Chef in California. He could have carved the damn thing out and used it for a boat to hold his fancy tuna salad on the table for a Champagne Buffet Breakfast at some restaurant. And then they could have jacked the price up two more dollars per person. But everybody wonders why Arnold's handing out I.O.U.'s these days and why Bankruptcy has become a new Buzz-word in that state. "Here's Your Sign!" Actually - not everybody in California is crazy. The smart ones would turn their nose up at the price for that Buffet Breakfast being jacked up two more dollars per person. They'd just hit the liquor store - go home and have Champagne with their Breakfast for Champions! Dwayne ended up humming that puppy into our gorgeous Pond - you know - the one with imaginary water. Who knows - we'll prolly have zucchini come climbing out of it next year like some Lockness Monster - if we don't get it filled in with concrete and dirt before then. We're back to work this morning. On to one more scrapbook page before I go out to feed my veggies. I had fun doing this one! And I've got several other photos I'm gonna put together that will go with this one! Take a gander!
