Yes, I do believe any of those...Dear Mrs. Micawber,<br />Yes, I do believe any of those Peanut delicacies you mentioned are worth being thankful for. I mean I'm just thankful for those ones that come in the shell, especially the 3-to-a-shellers. But you know what? We are thankful for YOU! You are not a Peanut, but you are pretty darned close. By the way, Mr. M is an intelligent fellow. I can tell. :)Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109785080000770963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024991967988557735.post-85570750976108754582012-11-16T19:58:00.356-08:002012-11-16T19:58:00.356-08:00I am so thankful for all my blogging friends ... t...I am so thankful for all my blogging friends ... to think that 20 months ago I didn't know any of them!<br /><br />Mr. M is thankful for Peanuts - especially when they have been mixed with chocolate to form clusters.

I mean ALL nuts are good in one way or the other. It is just that Peanuts are more so. As for making a goat.

I do, however, have an idea. You take such wonderful photos. How about you take a photo of some Peanuts and then make lots of copies. Everytime you go out to the goat pen, hold up the photo and then toss it away from you. The mad rush to the Peanut picture will give you a chance to run the other way, thus sparing your life. What do you think?Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109785080000770963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024991967988557735.post-15118955364468032452012-11-14T12:35:36.598-08:002012-11-14T12:35:36.598-08:00Lovely post, Marigold.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, especially the Goatmother and Goatfather!! :)<br />I do have a problem though Marigold that I hope you can help me with. Being the loving goat owner that I am, I finally bought my goatie girls a bag of peanuts. You didn't TELL us that peanuts are the crack of the goat world!! I get mobbed every time I go to the pasture now, peanuts in hand or not!! I am starting to fear for my saftey and there are only three of them!! They ARE all Alpines though...do you think that makes a difference? ;)Candy C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07863818451136277378noreply@blogger.com
