Rachael - MHSS - March

What a day!!!

Here's my REAL March post.

So far, so good. Been loving our March events (so many are food-based! How interesting.....), as well as all other March goings-on. Beer battered veggies last week and LOVED the experience -- & the results! So very excited. :) Zach was here (our favorite Jewish cowboy!), I've been working in our various patches of dirt in prep for garden(s) of sorts (I'm excited for planting!), I bought packets of seeds (wooo!), and for fun, I shall share with you a bit of my day today: (it was a lot more amusing as it happened than it will sound here)

Ran some errands this morning -- quite successfully, quite thrilling; a gorgeous day here in MD. I sure do love that Baltimore skyline. Explored & discovered, got some things I have been needing to get, & visited my parents' house....in time for a SEWAGE PARTY!!! Backed-up sewer lines & leaking pipes...it was a Shitwater Fest! My sister and I cracked up quite a lot during this escapade. Sometimes we were laughing so hard we couldn't actually accomplish anything productive. In trying to clear out the storage area that was getting leaked upon, my sister and I became rather innovative (need bequests invention?). If only you, too, could sport the fashionable plastic bag bonnets my sister created to prevent...well, getting dripped on. We're a good team, I must say. And we have pictures to commemorate the day. =D Fabulous. Nothing like family bonding!

PLUS -- not that ANYTHING could top my afternoon adventure! -- we saw one of the foxes that frequents our and our neighbors' yards. This one is the latest newcomer, the one my mom was just describing to me yesterday on the phone: fluffy, golden...absolutely gorgeous.
It was eating.
A squirrel.
I know this because I walked over to where the fox had been enjoying his (probably a "his" and not a "hers") meal before he trotted away (I scared him -- oops) to investigate the leftovers & see what I could discern. Quite a neat eater: nothing left, nothing at all but the tail....
