Might not stop you but, sure wears ya out faster. 👍😁

Fog here, too. Rains pretty much every day or two, over past 2 weeks. Thankfully, not heavy stuff like TX & IL. Just enough to keep things wet!!! Wet enough to not be able to do a lot -- and enough to get your pant legs all wet because you can't mow. Heat & humidity is uncomfortable...

And the ricotta is so easy....so good in winter dishes. Freezes beautifully. Today, pint+ of cottage cheese. Had some cream I wanted used, the curds were lovely size. Plus a mound of garlic/basil and 2 of chevre topped with a touch of vanilla added to blueberry preserves -- I picked & canned...

Cheese starting. Mostly it'll be a batch of ricotta but, I'll pull half of curd, whip, add more cream & form a roll to cover with blueberry jam. Some, add garlic & basil into mixture -- use on bagels or crackers. I'll give samples away to friends. Lazy day. Next weekend might be mozzarella...

Don't know about dinner but lunch was steamed shrimp. ☺️. Very nice! Some old bay, some cocktail sauce, some white wine....lovely :drool :old spoiling myself.

FAST!! Yes. :lol: my hen hatched ones are 6 wk old and zoom when mom calls them to eat bugs. The incubated ones are a week old. Oh, how I wish they were hen hatched! They don't learn to "be chickens" like others. 😕

Must be contagious! 😖 Caught via internet, too.

@CrealCritter no in garden here yet -- too wet, then job days, then sick tractor, more rain...tough spring!! But your orchards are doing well 👍👍👍🥰 Wakening but taking my time today. Decided I'd relax a little and still get things done. Had 4 long, tough days at work, so slower pace today...

@The Porch That's a lot of work!

A day trip sounds good & picnic to boot :celebrate

From looks of that tail, I'd say it's not liking you either :lol:

🤣. That's a little extreme

Dang....didn't your dryer die not toooo long ago? And AC .... And heater issues? Don't hold your breath but, is frig ok? :hide All my "stuff" is pushing at 25 y/o. Hoping the older, better made holds a while longer!!! Not only do I not want the bill but, newer isn't better now.

Apples are way up this year 🤔 of course locally they're shipped because VA apples are a little later. I've got plenty of applesauce & apple butter BUT my milking doe expects one in her milk stand feed 😳. Just a thought.

None of the elderberries are big...well slightly bigger in a good year. Our July 2024 was super dry for area & some elderberries didn't form much. I don't have reds here, just black. So last yr I didn't harvest any. Plenty canned & frozen, so no big deal. I collect & process but don't use...

Just getting "started" -- initial wake up -- moving slow, careful, on auto pilot. :old standard morning routine gets you to the kitchen and coffee. Ahhhhh, finally things begin to work, hands, legs, mind. At some point you think "what's today gonna bring?" Good morning all. 😄 Hope your...

Just got home from work. Group **** tomorrow. There's 10

Yep BYC has some great info to read! Most any chicken issue is there & fully discussed. Good info. Hot & humid -- major mosquito season. They are about the size of a 747 I think -- nasty buggers! Add their friends the no see-ums and you need a hazmat suit. This drib & drab daily rain...

Obviously you need to separate it to work on the leg. What to do depends on where it's broken. Any pics? That young, if it's in the lower leg you might be able to make a "cast" with a couple match sticks & tape. 🤔. Really need to see it. Glad to hear you're still among the living 🤣 long...

Yeah....once I finish getting them "together" 😂 There will be several green eggs layers from this group, a couple brown. Great, actually....have several blu & brown already. Sure would love to find some hens laying really blue, not light like most all do. They lay lighter with age, too. 🤷
