Meeting neighbors


Two neighbors from the apartment building down the way came by to introduce themselves. An older couple. The old guy runs a DJ business, and the roly poly wife is a self proclaimed chef extraordinaire interested in cooking/eating locally. They wanted to see if I sold any of my eggs, and in the summer, if I sold my extra produce. They were REAL upset to hear that I sold Cochise (the rooster). We had a nice long chat about gardening, raising chickens and slaughtering them, bees, native plants, natural mosquito repellents, compost, Bedfored, VA, Kansas, and peak oil! They left with a dozen eggs that I tried to just give them, but they insisted on paying me $5. That was kind of nice actually, because I am broke!

(Cochise is that super handsome guy in the photo above. He was the dumbest bird I've ever met. Sigh.)

p.s. Dude's D.J. company is D.J. Lovin' Dan and Associates.
