As some of you know, the house next to us has sold. Since we moved into our house in 2001, we have enjoyed the generousity of our neighbour who has allowed us to pick rhubarb from their yard. Now that the SOLD sign is on the lawn, we are worried that our new neighbour's won't understand our addiction to their rhubarb patch. What if they aren't as generous as the last neighbours?
Tonight I figured out how we can get to the rhubarb after they move in:
Step 1: Scale the fence:
Step 2: Jump into the patch
Step 3: Pull the rhubarb quickly and efficiently
Step 4: Make a hasty getaway
Step 5: Enjoy the loot
That should be enough for a rhubarb crisp and a batch of jam.

Especially if the pantyhouse mask was made from black fishnets :)
ReplyDeleteDid you dig up some of the plant and put it in your own garden? You know, so you can have rhubarb without stealing it again next year?
ReplyDeleteOh Steph...you're so funny!
ReplyDeleteNice job. You're so stealth.

ReplyDeleteI think it's the scaling of the fence that gets me...I half-expect to hear sirens and see large strobelights pop into life.
Reminds me of when as poor students in university we would go on toilet paper raids in the high-rise dorms at SMU...
ReplyDeleteDude. Please. Just dig some up and plant it on your side. What will we do if you can't blog from the county jail?
ReplyDeleteWe'll be seeing your picture up in the post office any day now! Too funny...........
ReplyDeleteHey Steph,
ReplyDeleteif you want your own rhubarb plant, without having to steal one, I can bring you one. Just let me know.
What a good garden theif you are! It's too bad your neighbors don't have a strawberry patch too.
ReplyDeleteI love the black knit hat! It's crucial to wear one in the commission of crimes such as this :)
