Another offering was to meet a foal. I felt the obligation to do so:

I was about to rub his nose, when he decided that it was lunch time:

Fairy slippers appeared in my driveway this morning!

Wow, how beautiful. Are they planted by you or by wind?
@mdr, they are wild, but I was still surprised to find them along my driveway. I had thought they preferred cool, damp forests.
I cannot remember where I read from and didn't pay much attention then, because our family do not eat Rhubarb. Chinese do not have it so I don't know how to cook it. Anyway, my point is I read somewhere that eating too much Ruhbarb is not good to health. Cannot remember the reason either.
@mdr, don't worry; it'd be really difficult to eat a lot of rhubarb. It's not a vegetable that you van just stir-fry into your food. It's really sour and can only be used in certain things.
