I always speculated there must be something good in growing older - now I've found it - we can choose what we eat (for a while. at least)! We call someone who is always nagging a "Meckerziege" in German (meaning: "bleating goat") - maybe there you'll find your goat-harvest that disappeared: sitting in front of their little plates, protesting: 'No. I won't eat my brussel sprouts, no!".

I've been looking skyward but all I can see is dust. California has been having droughts since Father Junipero Serra was founding (or finding) the missions. Texas has been having droughts since Moses parted the Red Sea.<br /><br />Due to the incredibly dry Texas weather, there are no goats at all on the trees this season - - only a few desert rats. As for brussel sprouts - - if they weren't green and didn't have eyes, perhaps I would eat them.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-64816458571766651702014-02-26T07:36:32.325-08:002014-02-26T07:36:32.325-08:00I am thoroughly convinced that Brussels Sprouts ar...I am thoroughly convinced that Brussels Sprouts are some kind of cruel joke played by God.

I don't know how strong your coffee is, but I hope it doesn't find its way into our coffee pot. Fortunately, I can detect a ripe old goat, so steps can be taken! However, I might just start believing sprouts have ears as well. And there are enough people in Europe who object to being ruled by Brussels!
