A little mishp--RT dumped an entire cup of scalding tea on his foot early yesterday and is now coping with second degree burns. Total bummer--and that explains why I am so late to post this weekend. We called our good friend, Carey, former full-time Bindweed babe, who came to the rescue. Sam gave up her Saturday morning sleep-in and we got stuff done. RT is still a cutting-machine but just not as speedy--nothing stops that man.
