I’ve written here a few times about people who’ve lost
wedding rings and later found them in gardens with carrots growing in them.
Maybe it’s time some other vegetables get in on the act. Kevin Butler of Windham,
N.H. had just taken his trash to a transfer station when his wife said her wedding
rings were missing. She’d cleaned the rings and placed them in a paper napkin
to dry, but the rings and the napkin weren’t where she’d left them. Kevin
rushed back to the transfer station, where he and the staff combed through twenty
tons of rubbish. It was like looking for a needle in a really big, smelly haystack.
Kevin saw stalks of celery poking through one of the bags and remembered there’d
been celery among his garbage. Sure enough, the bag with the celery also
contained a napkin and Mrs. Butler’s wedding rings. Kevin rewarded the staff for
their help by treating them to pizza.
