What Not to Ask For

This is a break from the Chicken Divas I know..... but, this is important information that must be shared.

Never, under any circumstances, EVER ask for compost for your Wedding Anniversary.  Compost is compost no matter how you look at it; horse, cow- it doesn't matter what you have envisioned in your gardening head, it is still a waste product that, well..... you know where it comes from and there is no need of to explain further.  Granted, you're not asking for diamonds, roses or something ghastly expensive, but it has to be more romantic than manure, ladies.

I don't believe that my request is something my poor husband will ever get over or even stop rubbing his head about.  I promise, my dear, I have learned my lesson and will not ever ask for manure again for an Anniversary no matter how many garden boxes need to be filled.  How about a rosebush?  They are beautiful and give me flowers daily in the summer.  Now, can you run out and get me some compost so I can plant it?" See, problem solved...........
