Fragrant Farm Fun

Curiously, the winning combination of pungent manure and farm fresh ice cream has pivoted Merrymead Farm to not only Montgomery County legendary lore, but the anticipation of celebrity fame. Apparently, not only does this family owned dairy possess "Old McDonald" charm for tiny tots with an affection for stinky cows and soiled sheep, but the visiting stars of Mr. & Mrs. Smith II, "Brangelina," are slated to patronize this quaint attraction while renting a palatial Blue Bell residence.

Regrettably, I have less in common with Brad Pitt than I wish I could profess (like his & hers monogrammed towels "MPB") , but I do possess children who tolerate and even relish ice-cream with a hint of "stable."  Fortuantely, my cousin Laura also finds the notion of Brad Pitt at Merrymead, rather delicious and her children love Harley the resident corpulent pig. So, an evening playdate with the fragrance of fertilizer perfuming the air perfected the summer day. . . until Caiders attempted to stone the singular Merrymead peacock. And since I am fairly confident that the Jolie-Pitt's have PETA on speed dial, this is where my celebrity similarities come to a damning close.
