I finally decided to cook. Bacon wrapped, jalapeno stuffed quail with a honey garlic glaze. Butter beans and sauteed zucchini to go with. I should cook more often, lol!

Noooo - do it! Next year is too far away, lol.

Can't wait to see pictures of that!

Definitely would if I could! As it is we didn't get nearly as much as was predicted. I'm ok with that since the prediction was for 5 - 10 inches. I haven't checked the rain gauge but I'm pretty sure we're between 2 and 3 inches total. We needed it too. Ground already had significant...

Visited with friends (former coworkers) yesterday. It was the first time in nearly two years that we've gotten together. First time I've seen them since my daughter passed. We shared some tears and some laughter and caught up on each other's lives. It was a good visit. We promised to get...

Dang - wrote this yesterday morning and never posted. :old Raining this morning. Trying not to complain because we need it. However, it does put a kink in my plans to get things done. It's not terribly hard rain so maybe I can sneak in a few projects. I mean, I did feed the critters. I...

That is awesome! I hope you reach all your goals - and then I'll be begging for you to sell me some eggs, lol.

Your silkies lay blue eggs? We've gotta talk - I need your secret, lol!

Got the first raised bed assembled. I've got cardboard and feed sacks on the bottom. Putting a layer of twigs in next, then l'll layer in dirt, compost and rotted hay. Need to finish this project - I have too many still waiting on me. Wishful thinking I'm afraid...this will take a while...

I learned a long time ago, in my first marriage, that if I wanted something done all I had to do was to start the project. Of course, according to him I could never do it right, so he'd take over. I would smile my 'thank you for rescuing helpless me' and walk away muttering "mission...

Thankfully, the back problem worked itself out when I got moving this morning. I definitely have 3 bottle babies. They are getting something from mom, but not nearly enough. Going to make sure they are well adjusted to the bottle and then offer them for sale soon. Still working on the...

The storm was intense, but thankfully it was very fast moving and didn't hang around and cause any problems. Haven't checked the rain gauge but I see no standing water. Slept in a little this morning. Not much sleep last night. Not all the storms fault, but DH's blood sugar was being...

We had triplets last night, but didn't find them until they were already here. But, DGD got to experience newborns. Had to take her back today. I didn't want to...she's such a joy to have around. It was a whirlwind visit. There was fishing, there was quail cage building too. That girl is...

I repotted some tiny tomato seedlings that were in tiny starter pots. They're not exactly in the garden yet - but they will be as soon as I get my other garden projects done.

Thanks! She's such a sweet little thing. This year - we are actually that green, lol. I've already had to mow the yard twice...ugh!

That is all kinds of EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Lotsa dirt therapy - thank goodness! It keeps me sane. (debatable, lol) As soon as I opened my mouth about how well DH has been doing there's been a return of some symptoms. Intermittent as of now. We'll be watching more closely and documenting anything else that might pop up before we see...

Busy, busy, busy! Been trying to take advantage of the beautiful weather we've had. Yard has been relieved of it's burdens of sticks from all the wind we've had. Grass has been mowed finally. Been working on garden stuff. Garden fever is strong. Trying to work on the screen house for...

Yikes! Hope you feel better soon!

Dang good question! I just received 18 more eggs from the same breeder. They'll go in the incubator today. Also have some others ordered from a different breeder. Hopefully there'll be lots of fluffy butts running around here soon enough! I'm going to try and work on my screen house today...
