My doctor with my son said the same thing about drinking 2% milk. I won't tell your doctor if you never tell mine I was drinking raw milk:duc My midwife said it was okay and I was only seeing the doctor to make DH's family feel better.
I'll bet E's right you see her everyday 2times a day so...

Deb here is the link to the recipe. I have never tried it, but the thought of it makes me want to! I don't know if it is Japanese honeysuckle. It's the yellow and white kind that grows along hedgerows and roadways everywhere. Is that...
Got my new chickens!!!
I got bantam Salmon Favorelles. Cutest little buggers. I got one rooster and 3 hens. He said they are about 2yrs old and should do well in the show ring. DH hopes they lay too so that we can get some chick out of them quick. I think we have an egg eater in the pen that...
Ice cream is dairy and you need dairy for the baby. I can find a way to rationalize everything in pregnancy :lau
Enjoy the beek meeting.
How is Lael doing?
Rogers has been a good week for me. Last night I got some cherry tomatoe plants. Don't really need them, but the one auctioneer took my cookies home last week that I left. So he gave me cherry tomato plants as payment. The big score for last night was some honeysuckle vine. I have had the worst...
Worked Rogers farm machinery this past week. Wow! Makes for a long week, but I scored tomato stakes for $4. That should help as DH has 98 tomato plants planted. Garden is almost done and the tiller decides to stop running. DH thinks it's the spark plug. I really hope it is. Going tonight to help...
I do believe I am going up to Woolfest. I think we're doing a scope out to see if it's a show worth doing. Maybe we'll see you there.
Hopefully I don't get an itch to buy anything. I've got a couple of pounds of BFL I need to spin up and make into something.
Our main breed is Nubians, but we also have one Lamancha and one Toggenburg. Love the look and color of the Nubians :D
Thanks for telling me about the queens. I'll remember that for next time.
Thought I was going to plant today since I have a day off with not much to do(besides grocery shop), but Ohio weather has a different idea. So grocery shopping working on cleaning the house and then working on hats for fall festivals this year.
Took the kids to a friend's house yesterday...
The unacceptable fleeces get to go to the pool which is where the local sheep producers take their fleeces and they get baled and shipped to China( I think). I do know they get shipped overseas. Always seemed funny to me that we buy our wool from overseas and ship our will out of the country...
We might have a line on a bigger incubator. That would be really nice. The guy said it holds up to 400 eggs plus he has a couple of hatcher boxes that go with it. Awesome set-up if we can afford it. Gonna go take a look at it and see. Chick eggs should be hatching next week and turkeys the week...
Thank you for all of the answers! I appreciate all of them. I think we will try the peppermint oil first.
Okra what kind of disinfectant are you talking about?
I'm sorry your poor bees did all that work for nothing. Poor things. I can't help you with any of the bee questions, but at least I know to call you next time I see a swarm:-)
Thank you for the comments about the sign. I do like it surrounded by the rovings as well:)
Went shearing with K yesterday. I was never happier to have a/c in a vehicle. It was close to 90F if not over and the humidity was outrageous. We ended up doing quite a few llamas. That always makes for...
