Bee's Guest House

[Beekissed]

My Black Betty likes to stand up against/on it and eat the hay over the top of it...but mostly she just eats through the squares. I'm quite pleased with it thus far....so nice to not have to worry about feeding morning and evening.

I know someone who uses a cattle panel around a round bale in much the same manner....they just tighten it as the bale diminishes.

Well....tomorrow is Thanksgiving! The Bat just made some beautiful hot rolls, kielbasa rolls and blackberry cobbler. Tomorrow will be the turkey and all the trimmin's and a good, warm, lovely time with my family.

Can't wait! Sure do miss my boys! Seems weird to be the mom of grown children....never thought that day would come. Don't know how one gets around that in your mind but I guess it will come to me.

It just seems strange to "arrange" a holiday around schedules and such....used to be we were just naturally all in the same home, on the same day, eating around the same table.

The puppies are coming along nicely and are learning to sit calmly for their food, learning to sit upon command and even how to lie down. I haven't had much time to work with them, so they would be further along by now if I had. They are 9 weeks old this week and are twice the size they were when I got them!

My mom is a great cook of just home cookin' type meals. She can mix up breads, pies, etc. without using measurements or even thinking about it.

She used to run/own a restuarant of family style cooking way out in the country. She had never worked outside the home or even had graduated from high school....but within two months she was paying all the bills in the restuarant and our home and we were operating in the black.

She was the cook, waitress, custodian and accountant...and truckers would change their truck routes just to eat there. It was great home cooked food from scratch and people came for miles around to eat there. She also was raising nine children and caring for her husband and home at the same time....can we say "Supermom"???

Me? I'm queen of the one dish wonder! I make great bread, soups, chili and breakfasts. I never ventured into any other type of cooking and I've never owned a cook book until a couple of months ago. I bought a book on making different kinds of breads.

My hubby is our 1 dish wonder. He makes the very best Glop.

Can't cook a steak or fry an egg, but the man truly makes the best one dish conglomerations you ever ate.

Now if I could just get him to wash the dishes.

Now if I could just get him to wash the dishes.

IF you EVER figure that one out....let ME know your secret! LOL

Mine loves to do the dishes. I won't eat his cooking though. He makes chili so hot it melts the spoon he stirs it with, and a Mexican style shepherd's pie that involve Bisquick that really tastes quite good if you can eat Bisquick which I no longer can. But, man, the man will do the dishes 'til the cows come home. No secret to it; he just always has.

Worth his weight in GOLD!!

My DH actually did the dishes the other day and made sure I knew about it when I got home. Maybe I need to start telling him what I've done during the day.
