Peacock Blue. And Green. All Organic

It hardly seems possible, but it’s time for our second annual “first historic toxic organic garden peacock harvest.” Technically, last year’s first harvest was much later, but it was so successful we planted a special early-harvest variety this year.

peacock Remember last year’s peacock harvest? We wore, what else, peacock blue and our world famous fashion icon boob belt. mo's hike_thumb[4]

This year, we went one better and wore peacock blue and green and replaced the boob belt with a Madonna style bra. FireShot capture #011 - 'PicApp Search results for michelle obama' - www_picapp_com_search_aspx_term=michelle%20obama&pageNum=0&cats=

But the harvesting technique was pretty much the same;x610 

We did have a few heart stopping moments when Little Mo got tangled up in the root structure of Lady M’s peacock tails. little Mo in fennel watermark

That’s Little Mo, inside the blue circle. You remember:  he escaped from the whirling jaws of Ricky’s blender at the big State Mole Fiesta dinner we threw for Felipe who came to town to tell us how to  operate our open border more effectively. Don’t worry, Little Mo  escaped from Ricky’s kitchen and Big Guy’s speech (something no one else has done so far) so he had no problem hauling tail out of Lady M’s roots. As a precaution though, I’m placing MO’s toxic garden off limits on harvest days.

And please, no questions about the choice of harvest attire. I just work here.

    Note how cleverly Bjorn managed both pantyhose and thong sandals - with scissors!

    OMG, Lady M would kill for that gown. I know ‘cause she already has for a whole lot less.

    We won’t need the socks. We don’t wear them. We used to, but they kept disappearing. Then we found them in Big Guy’s laundry basket. Big Guy tried to blame RegLo, saying “I just wear, uhh, what he puts out”.

    I’ll tweet Givenchy now.

  4. I ♥ Little Mo! Such a daredevil! And a cute prankster.

    Golly, MOTUS, Mo-Mo sure does work so hard. She seems plum tuckered out in that last pic. No wonder she looks so put out all the time — a fashion icon's/busy mom's/active sportswoman's/garden wizard's work is never done.

    Too bad she's so busy MOOving the world that there's been no gym time scheduled. That belly roll and those flaccid guns need lots of lovin' lately.

  5. MOTUS,
    What is it with MOO and fennel? Well at least we weren't subjected to the full leg spread. Whew!

    Little MO is a little stinker. Where do you suppose he went to? The closest route of escape would have been to burrow into MOO's wighat. Hmmmm.

  7. MOTUS,
    I spoke too soon. Full leg spread in photo #5. How did I miss that?

    I want to see the night vision video of workers planting full grown vegetables in MOO's garden so she can dig them up on camera for photo op. I don't believe those vegetables are actually grown there. This is so fake just like everything they do except tax and spend.

  9. Chuck,
    Given MOO"s love of the open leg stance, I think the correct terminology should be...tax and spread.

  10. That bow on the bosom looks like a dried bat.

  11. The Harvest is later last year and she's wearing a sweater? This year it's earlier and she's in a tank, and sweating like The First Sow? And what the hell is she going to do with all that fennel. You don't put fennel in cannolis. And you certainly don't rub them on ribs. But as for the sweating - can anyone say MENOPAUSE??

    MOTUS, that Little Mo is one nosey whatever he is. Or, maybe he is the spy I suggested in an earlier post? Axe him if the camera crew misted her brow. Or did she slap on some oil to obtain a sweat. You know that bitch can't garden. I'm with Chuck - where are the secret Night Vision Google tapes.

  12. SQnon:

    Little Mo is a prankster isn’t he. HOW did you do that little heart? That is sooo cool.

    I don’t know how or when we are going to squeeze in gym time. Spanx and duct tape can help with the belly roll, but we are going to go sleeveless, so we’ve got to tone the guns. I;ll keep you advised.

    Cinderella:

    Little Mo has just become a camera hog ever since his debut on the networks, but he’s too smart to get into one of MO’s hair nests. He and Bo have constructed a complex labyrinth of tunnels connecting the organic garden, the rose garden and my super–secret sanctuary city.

    Anon1:

    Don’t stop believing!

    Cinderella:

    MO never disappoints.

    Stand Up Chuck:

    Now why would you have to go and bring up our stunt vegetables again. We almost had a settlement inked, and you throw this monkey into the wrench, or wrench into, or, what ever.

    Anon3:

    You have a good eye. The bat was borrowed from the Natural History Museum’s “ Henry Waxman: Batboy: Seperated at Birth?” display.

    bettyann:

    Harvest was later last year but I guess algore must be right about that global warming thing, huh? MO sweats all the time just from the load imposed by her life: FLOTUS, fashion icon/busy mom/active sportswoman/garden wizard (HT/Sine Qua Non). And the “CHANGE”, butt that’s what we promised!

    Promises Kept!

    As for the fennel, it is paid for it’s performance in accordance with the stunt vegetable contract, and returned to James Cameron’s special effects studio.

    I didn’t want to talk about this yet, but, Little Mo is, as you know, a mole. And he’s a mole of a mole. He sneaks around Big White with Bo when I’m on assignment and reports everything that goes on. So, in a way, he is a mole and a spy. But he’s my mole and spy!

  13. Please post a pic of a huge
    fly buzzing into that gaping hole she calls a mouth.

    Perhaps you could fit Little Mo with the night vision camera to survey the garden at night. I think there are interesting things going on there. Maybe O sneaks out there for his cigs too.
