I talked to my sister yesterday. In response to the usual, "So, what's new with you?" question, I once again proved my complete immersion in the rural life style. What's new with us?
We made maple syrup last weekend and
the sheep shearer is coming on Sunday.
Welcome to Countryville, U.S.A.
Brrr for the sheep. Beth
ReplyDeleteDo you plan to make more syrup?

And I was thinking: "my god I'm so urban" when you asked me the same question. I take my dog rollerblading (how yuppie), just got the car washed (in my defense there were some funky chemicals sprayed on our trees that got on the car), had a pedicure and had a dinner party last weekend. Amazing we grew up in the same house!!
ReplyDeleteAnd that is how you know your life is awesome. Most people would have answered that question by saying, "Dunno. About the same."
ReplyDeleteBeth: Yup. Twenty gallons of sap from just our trees yesterday and today. We'll probably have to do it the weekend following this one.
