Cow and Peach Rollup Pie.
It was freezing cold, the fog was so thick I couldnt see the fence in front of me. The fire in the grate was burning red and orange, the children were playing happily in the warmth. I had brought the last load of firewood in for the fire, and left the rear door open. Mrs Cow , yes thats correct, a cow, decided to visit the family in the house. In she walked through the open door, into the laundry and about to enter the kitchen when one of the children screamed "COW". What to do? How to remove a beast of that size? Mrs Cow looked at me with those jet black eyes and blinked her eyelashes at my astonished face. I swear I saw humor in those eyes. As quickly as she appeared, she backed herself out the door and outside. We all laughed and laughed and never left the door open again.!!
