Earth Roast tomorrow
No. I'm not foretelling impending doom. The local Ruritans have an annual earth roast we attend every year. What it amounts to is pit-cooked roast beef. They bury it. Then dig it up when it's done. Don't worry, they wrap it first. Anyway, it results in great roast beef sandwiches. The sandwiches come with a dinner of beans, cole slaw and homemade dessert. Entertainment is blue grass music, cloggers and cake walks at the end of the evening. It's an event where you can go hang out with your neighbors. Our entire year is marked by these sorts of events. Of course this will be the first one for Emma so that will make it extra special ;)
