Lucy- It IS confusing. Here in the south we call a lot of legumes "peas." There are field peas and white acre peas and black-eyed peas and so forth. Sometimes peanuts are even referred to as "goober peas" although not by anyone I personally know.
Ms. Planting- That is a real tarpon mount that a friend of ours found in a garage of a house he bought and gave us. The birds nest on it in the spring.
--and i will randomly mention that i am now reading SHAKEY, the biography of Neil Young (and i'm listening to ARCHIVES while I'm at it---)
and i thought of you, when reading a snip of an essay NY wrote, as a schoolboy, on the subject of his love for his chickens. & also when he talks about rock. if you haven't read it, i can say i at least endorse the first 86 pages.
Peas don't come already shelled and in cans? Then what were those olive-drab round things my mother used to feed me?
