no sooner do i celebrate the beauty of home than i realize that our home is being over-run. by tomatoes, and cucumbers, and beans and peas, all waiting consumption or canning. and by chickens. 3 at last count. one with a hurt leg. one we just adore and always let in (though, the whole chicken-on-bed lasted only as long as a photo before we shooed her away). and one who is hell bent on laying her eggs in the closet and then rearranging the bookshelf, desk, and kitchen counter with her spastic wings and feet.
this morning started with one of the lambs out and me muscling her back in, in my pajamas. and the rest of the day goes something like garden, sheep fence, garden, milking, garden, farmer's market, cow fence, garden.
happy friday.
happy friday to you, too! which sheep got out? do you think it was an accident or a bold move?! gosh they are such lovebugs.
ReplyDeleteit was ardea (the black one) gosh she is such a love bug, but i imagine she holds her self above the sheep law. ps. i miss you helping me with fence.
ReplyDeleteI adore the picture of the chicken on the bed. I wish I could let my chickens come in the house but I don't think my cats would like it too much ;)
ReplyDeleteY-U-M! I would love my house to be overrun by tomatoes! LUCKY!

ReplyDeleteHow your life sounds good to me! I was inspire by the whole idea of eating better and making your food, made my first fresh goat cheese on the weekend. Now I just need a couple of goats! Did you ever try to let cheese mature or do you always make fresh cheese? I could use some advices!
