Veggiefella knows (the weather) 

October 12, 2009 Organic Carrots for Market Garden

                     The Veggiefella knows the weather…

He knows it’s foggy....
Because he can’t find his way to the garden.

He knows it’s sunny….
Because he can see his shadow.

He knows it’s windy….
Because his hat keeps blowing off his head.

He knows it’s raining….
Because his back is getting wet.

He knows the UV index is high….
Because his skin is turning red.

He knows it’s a clear night….
Because the big fat moon is shining on his face,

He knows when he opens his door and there is not a weed in sight....
He should close the door and go back inside, Because outside it’s far too white.

                                   Because “you know” what happened.

August 1, 2009 Organically Grown Peas for Market Garden

This was written and posted on December 9, 2009  on: http://veggiefella.blogspot.ca/  by friends of mine in Alberta, Canada who are organic market gardeners. You can check out their site, The Veggie Fella, on the right side of my blog just above my picture of Emerald.

My Baby ~~ Winston

This is Winston. He's my only male among three females ~ all fixed and he's my Baby!

He is also quite a unique character...
 
 






Winston and his mother, Molly...
when she isn't reproving him with a bat to the ear or a whack on the head for some imagined offense or just because its Tuesday.

A winter days slumber on the old rocking chair.

This, I have no explanation for! 


He's just 'Winston'

 
Is it morning yet?  Or... What do you mean its Monday, what happened to my day off, Sunday?

Winter's day nap.

Back in March, we had a nice day and this was as far as Winnie was going to enjoy the great outdoors ~ and that, was that!

So, how many cats to you know who habitually lay like this?

 Winston, inquiring after butter for his morning toast. Where's my Toast??

 Winston strongly suspects someone, who is not a family member, is on top of the fridge...

I have a plastic covering over the window so Winston can't climb up. Instead he's investigating an unusually bright orb in the night sky. Oh, what can it be???

These are only a few reason as to why he's my baby!
