Green Peas and Pets

I looked down at the green garden bucket and then looked up at my husband with sheer terror. I don’t have time to do peas today I cried. Well, he said they are ready and need to be done. “Fine, I do it but I won’t like it, I said.”
I push away from the computer and began the tedious job of shelling the bucket of fresh garden peas. As the peas where whirling around the bottom of the bowl, the memories was busy whirling around my head.

One surfaced, I though about our little dog Angel, as I staring at the empty spot at my feet. This is where she would sit there and whine for peas. She has been gone for a few years now but I can almost hear her sharp bark when she did not what she wanted.
As the job went on I thought about all of the pets that I had loved and cared for. From a little pet pig, Penelope that I feed on a bottle to our old milk cow that loved left over pancake.

I have a home remedy for your beloved pets to keep them healthy and happy.
To keep fleas and biting flies from your pets mince about 2 cloves of fresh garlic into their food weekly. Doggie breath with take on new horrors, but the fleas will be gone.
