Mrs Gooserson


   Every  Monday Mrs. Gooserson stands post waiting for mustard greens to fly over the fence. Mrs. Gooserson LOVES mustard greens almost as much as she loves Hot Cheetos.  

    As I am the Queen of my Empire , I get to choose my days off. Monday is my chosen day of relaxation, therefore most of Monday  is spent building my garden. That is why you will find Mrs. Gooserson standing sentry at the fence every Monday.

  This  particular Monday was a special one for Mrs Gooserson . It was time. Time to put a fork in my winter garden. The broccoli would not stop bolting and the mustard greens had turned bitter. I toyed with the idea of keeping it for Mrs. Gooserson but my potato growing experiment had to start and this was the perfect space. 

  Soon the heavens opened up raining great gobs of broccoli and mustard greens on Mrs Goosersons yard. Christmas in April !!  She ran from plant to plant gobbling up a bit of each as they fell from the sky. Thelma and Louise joined in pecking at the green goodness.

   Around  noon I took a break to begin prepping for dinner. Bits an pieces of various vegetables were sent flying out my kitchen door. Thelma and Louise were there with bells on but Mrs Gooserson was nowhere to be seen. I began to worry as she was always there front and center.

   I found her in the back yard sleeping in her pile of greens. she lazily looked up at me then promptly put her head back down. Had I killed Mrs Gooserson with Mustard greens !!!

   After spending an afternoon fraught with worry , my husband arrived home. Mrs Gooserson woke up and ran to the gate. Yup , it was time for her Hot Cheeto appetizer !!!,
