Peacock Blue. And Green. All Organic

It hardly seems possible, but it’s time for our second annual “first historic toxic organic garden peacock harvest.” Technically, last year’s first harvest was much later, but it was so successful we planted a special early-harvest variety this year.

peacock Remember last year’s peacock harvest? We wore, what else, peacock blue and our world famous fashion icon boob belt. mo's hike_thumb[4]

This year, we went one better and wore peacock blue and green and replaced the boob belt with a Madonna style bra. FireShot capture #011 - 'PicApp Search results for michelle obama' - www_picapp_com_search_aspx_term=michelle%20obama&pageNum=0&cats=

But the harvesting technique was pretty much the same;x610 

We did have a few heart stopping moments when Little Mo got tangled up in the root structure of Lady M’s peacock tails. little Mo in fennel watermark

That’s Little Mo, inside the blue circle. You remember:  he escaped from the whirling jaws of Ricky’s blender at the big State Mole Fiesta dinner we threw for Felipe who came to town to tell us how to  operate our open border more effectively. Don’t worry, Little Mo  escaped from Ricky’s kitchen and Big Guy’s speech (something no one else has done so far) so he had no problem hauling tail out of Lady M’s roots. As a precaution though, I’m placing MO’s toxic garden off limits on harvest days.

And please, no questions about the choice of harvest attire. I just work here.
