Oh, I'm full on jealous!!! That's a beautiful sight, a fresh, ripe tomato.

It's part of what this forum is about!!! That beautiful food we grow.

And knowing it was homegrown just adds to the beauty of it.

Those are beautiful!

It's hard to coordinate two lists, from two people with their own thoughts & priorities 😂. Hiring might be a real good thing for her! It gets done or you learn discussing "wanna plans" first. 👍

Thinking on this process, it's such a miracle. 21 days and a fully developed chick. AND with the good sense & ability to break thru a shell that we know takes a solid whack when we try to cook one. There they are, wet & weak. Within an hr they are up and walking. A broody hen will defend...

More food poisoning but, not to be listed on the label. 😠

This should be last job day for this week. 👍 I'm feeling I need a couple days at a slower pace. And it's hatch weekend for incubator. We'll see how that goes 🙄 I'm not a broody hen....so anxiously I wait. Also, have more milk processing time. @CrealCritter a dairy animal is a commitment! One...

@CrealCritter speaking of the moo crew, has Penny been added yet?

That's cool -- 3 blimps at one time 😃 Daylight coming woke me an hr ago. Slept hard, which was good. Unexpected things happened yesterday so never got to work. I'm coffeed up and heading out early today. Had left a window up a couple inches for the cool night air to blow in. It sure did...

Wrong....checked calendar and auction is next sat, 6/14. Much better! Need another week to chill myself and check over goats!! Select those ready to leave here.

Would be thrilled to share but, you're a long drive away ☺️

Tonight is lockdown. 😉 I'll disconnect the turner, increase humidity a little and hope for best. If all went well then Fri/Sat should see chicks. 🤞🤞 I'm ready to be done with this part of chicks! The auction is Saturday. I can buy a few more half grown pullets if this didn't go well 😆...

Thinking I'll have stuffed peppers from freezer. Before long it'll be time to prepare another batch for winter 2025. Still several in there to eat up.

I checked neighbors tree -- that she's given me permission to be "mine" 😁 it's loaded!!!! It's a massive growth -- about 10' tall, spreads 15+ across. Yeah at least 25+ yrs old. So I can hardly wait for harvest. Late this month. :drool that and elderberries here & there will keep me...

Great day! Work mostly audit & piece, paid well, short day! Home to good incubator temps 👍 weather beautiful. Cleaned & refilled a bunch of water tubs. Walked and picked up "stuff" blown in & around from Sat winds, while tubs filled. Collected eggs. On way to store for work, delivered...

Easy, peasy -- some meatloaf I made yesterday 😊. A few lima beans, too. Glass of wine.
