As Fran slowly cooks the leg of lamb on the barbie it is time for the Saturday night bath. As is the custom the women go first. Once the women are properly chlorinated they are ready for the feast of the lazy. The feast of the Lazy starts the most high holy season. The feast of the lazy is a tradition to celebrate the birth of the first grandchild. In Orthodox Kadizzelism a child born in a year with a good June berry harvest is thought to be a special blessing. To end the feast June Berry pie will be served warm with ice cream. Part of the tradition is to hide the remaining pie until morning. In the morning if no one has found the pie over night another pie ritual is performed that involves a terrible fight over the remaining pie. It is considered a curse to have any pie left by high noon. As the mother superior shouts "That's Megan's pie" the other members of the clan try to sneak as much as possible without being found out. Tradition holds that the pie is magic and disappears by itself.
What is on my mind? Where are we? If you are interested you may find out here. If your not that is the beauty of the keys on your computer, you can surely hit a couple and go to other places on the planet. IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY PEACHES, LET ME BE, STAY OUT OF MY ORCHARD, DON'T SHAKE MY TREE
