When your son wants chickens and goats, and your daughter wants minature cows … and you ask them when they are moving out … and buying a farm …

When an Eagle swoops down a little too close to your Yorkie … And you need to scare it away…Yorkies aren’t food!
Corn on the cob is a great dish for those who have front teeth. And the dried cobs can substitute for toilet paper.
Uh, you might not want to suggest that your kids buy a farm. Do you know what the expression, “Bought the farm,” means?
You should have shot that Eagle. I hate that football team.

Wellll…. it was actually a Hawk, not an Eagle. π³

I’m with you on sweet corn. As someone who doesn’t particularly like that many vegetables, I feel like that one tastes too good to be a vegetable.π

When I was a teenager, we’d fill a steel garbage can with sea water, put it in one of the beach fire-pits, and boil a bunch of un-husked corn for evening get-togethers. Nowadays, I think I have about 10 cans of corn left to rotate through the emergency supplies. Questionable fare I suppose, either way.
Chickens… My brother discovered that he could put food-coloring in the hens’ feed and get green and purple eggs. Sure there’s a market somewhere.
Local mountain lions, bobcats and coyotes, redtail hawks, golden eagles, bald eagles, peregrines… Seeing a “food” theme in this post.

That sounds like fun with the corn at the beach. Better than canned corn. LOL!
Haha at your brother. Did he get emerald blue eggs ever? π
Glad we don’t have to worry about mountain lions. Bobcats or coyotes!
Clive’s comment goes with the food theme. LOL!
In the UK they have chocolate π« bars called Yorkies! Just wrong! π

Most people think corn is a veggie but in reality it is one of the least nutritious of all the grains. It’s also one of the most GMO’d plants as well. Gulp.
