With the latter there's at least a bit of explanation or justification, since pears can be eaten. But destroying a mailbox is just pure mean fun.<br /><br />I'm a little puzzled by your last line. Is it the pears or the tomatoes that aren't tempting? <br /><br />I've never heard of that tradition but that doesn't mean a whole lot.Machttp://lightondarkwater.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774681833222176907.post-66312675459957577232012-07-12T10:59:12.846-05:002012-07-12T10:59:12.846-05:00Well, there may be, but in my mind I associate tha...Well, there may be, but in my mind I associate that with Garrison Keillor.<br /><br />AMDGJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09069018443486415173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774681833222176907.post-26683805490148236742012-07-12T10:57:23.935-05:002012-07-12T10:57:23.935-05:00Isn't there an old southern tradition of secre...Isn't there an old southern tradition of secretly giving your excess veggies to neighbors, sort of like Old Maid with squash?
