Rhubarb Festival - Who's going?

j/k viking. Stop by and say hello if you make it to the festival.

Whew! I thought you were talking about one with a noose on the end of it! :VeryScared:

Boxing ring sounds interesting though. :BodyBuild:

Paca, when do you get to ditch the boot?
(pssssst, Viking, it's her ankle not her foot, hence the smart-ass whistler.....)

I know, but the foot bones connected to the.....ankle bone and so on and so forth. So technically even if I would have said back or neck it is still all connected somehow right.

So, you gotta, you know, rhubarb the garden once it a while.

All I have to say is plant rhubarb once and you will never have to plant it again. It used to come up year after year. I don't like bell pepper either so I am sure I would have thought the same thing if that kept coming back. LOL

FIBULA. Look it up. :nyah:


I have one small rhubarb. Hopefully it will get bigger if whatever is eating it would stop.


CG - I don't like bell peppers either. :thumbsup:

Rivendale - actually it's neither my foot nor my ankle.

Huh? Susan told me before shearing you broke your ankle! Well, what the hell happened??

The bottom of my fibula. It's actually the smaller leg bone. It's often referred to as the ankle bone. You know that bone that sticks out on the outside of your ankle? Mine doesn't stick out anymore.

Snort, I read "fibula" a couple of posts above and thought you had a fancy new name for the flower part of rhubarb. My vocabulary is usually better than that! (And, I actually know my fibula from my tibula to boot!) I think my caffeine levels are drastically low this afternoon...

Apparently, alpaca pee is slippery

Great way to get out of shearing this year. :blondmoment:
