A lesson too late in the learning...

I managed to get a quantity of late season cucumbers and discovered I was out of pickling lime. Dear hubby says no problem, he has to go to the court house about some of our assessments and he'll stop at Rural King on the way back and get some. I should have listened to the queasy feeling in my stomach then and there but noooooo...

When he returned he disappeared out to the storage shed suddenly I hear pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop-pop. When I check he has both of the toy machine guns my Dad and uncle played with when they were children. I was under the impression they no longer made the caps for them but it seems Rural King has them in stock at great quantity. He assures me there will be plenty of roll caps left when LR gets home.

Never again will I allow my husband in Rural King without adult supervision.

It's good for him to play with toy cap guns!

Adult supervision is highly over-rated. Go with it. The force is strong with this one...

Nothing wrong with what he did (but you'd expect that answer from a guy, right?), but did he remember the pickling lime?

I thought you were going to say he bought a huge bag of lime that you lay down in the garden soil instead of the pickling lime. 8)

Do you really want to open that can of worms?

 

[RoninPA]

NOPE!

 

[Selena]

NOPE!

Wise decision Senior Master Sergeant. It's enough to say I didn't go through 15 hours of labor just so hubby would have someone to play guns with.

You didn't send him for worms. :lol:
