Do you want to know why?
Because the garden is coming in!
Do you know what that means?
I GET LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF TREATS.
Can you tell I am excited?!
I was especially excited the other day because the publicist brought out some.....
....SPINACH!
And what is even better about this whole spinach thing - the only other goat who likes spinach is
my studmuffin, Luke the goat!
So I got to eat most of it myself.
Isn't that wonderful!
I thought so.
Spinach is so very green and TASTY!
I just LOVES it.
I could eat it all day long.
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUURP!!!
Aaaah, now there is room for MORE.
Is there any more?
MORE! MORE! MORE?
Mmmmmm, more!
I am sure you were all mildly amused by Pricilla's silly song on Monday about our spinach treat.
Pffft!
I take my spinach eating very seriously.
After all, the male person works hard in his garden so I think the least we can do is eat every last bit of treat we get.
I showed my two boys the best way to dig in and find the tastiest morsels. Little Marion looked on as well.
Mmmm, I am, of course and expert eater. You can tell by my shiny coat.
I really know how to enjoy a special treat when it is given to me. Even if my kid tries to steal it from me!
Thanks, male person! We enjoyed the fruits, erm vegetables of your gardening.
Oh, and erm, publicist. Thanks to you too.
It's the most wonderful time of the year
with the kids spinach eating
And everyone telling you there soon will be ears (of corn)
It's the most wonderful time of the year!
It's the hap-happiest season of all
with the garden a growing
and from the male person hoeing
We get the leftovers through Fall
It's the hap-happiest season of all
They'll be spinach for studmuffins
He loves even the toughest ones
You can see from the look on his face
They'll be leaves specially delivered
to SpokesGoats who will have shivered
from delight. She won't leave a trace
It's the most wonderful time of the year
Nannys will show kids the joys of eating
The treats that publicist brings
She is so nice to us goat we are bleating
"We love you whether you are far or near"
It's the most wonderful time of the year!*
I guess it's no secret but we goats LOVE when the garden starts to come in. We get extra special treats like SPINACH! Mmm, spinach is mighty tasty - even if little Marion hasn't figured that out yet.
Neither did Sarah or Nora but I'll bet they will learn before the summer is out!
*you can find the real lyrics to the song, The Most Wonderful Time of the Year HERE
And Abby, will of course share her side of the Spinach story on AbbyDay 'cause she doesn't think I can do it well enough.
Harumph!
