Thanks! It was a nice stay at home, low key day. Just how I like it! DS wanted to take us out for dinner, but I delayed until next weekend when the weather is over this hissy fit!

Slept well last night and (like a miracle) so did DH. Did morning chores. Had my usual talk with myself about "why the he// am I doing this?" Had no good answer except for some sort of self-imposed punishment, lol. Eight months out of the year I love it... DH managed to do his own...

That's great! Everything you get done ahead of time will save you so much work/aggravation after!

Are the deer raiding the bird feeders or do they just like the company?

LOL! I get it! You're saying I'm a weather wuss without actually saying I'm a weather wuss! That's ok - I totally agree! :lol:

A leftover birthday brownie and a couple cups of liquid motivation.

We'll get our turn tonight. Predicted temps could be as low as 19. Boooo!

@flowerbug Thanks for that recipe. Years ago I had that one, or one very similar.

That fish looks delish! We had round 2 of collards and sausage. Might've actually made those brownies I've been threatening to make for a week. Stuffed my face with a couple of them and the rest will be individually wrapped and stashed in the freezer.

Well put @FarmerJamie and I whole-heartedly agree! Like a lot of us I pop in multiple times a day but sometimes don't really have time or information to post. I've been guilty of clicking a like button and moving on. Other days, when I'm inside and not so time stressed, I really try to respond.

Great coop and run. I can't imagine needing to protect my birds against bears!

Ya'll make me feel like a total wimp complaining about the temps here, lol! But - truth is - I AM a total weather wimp and I embrace it. So, today I'll reach down into that wet muddy hole and turn off the water valve to the pasture. Then I'll have to turn it back on when this freakish cold...

They do tend to blow it up, lol. I find that I'm kind of addicted though. I'm always afraid there will be a last-minute change that I'll miss and life as we know it will be forever changed, lol!

Yum! I'm struggling with my sugar addiction these days. Problem being I promised myself brownies for bad weather preps and I never made them. I feel so deprived, lol! We had fresh collards straight from the garden last night. Threw a sausage link in with 'em, lots of garlic and onions and...

Have a "regular" cold front coming in tonight but the Arctic air will follow tomorrow. Back in the 20's by Saturday morning - oh yay. Thankfully, most preps are in place from the earlier front. I do have a list of things to be done before next winter! First - rebuild the pump house. It's...

It's unnatural I tell ya! Unnatural! (and it really sucks)

Nothing about that surprises me... Is any of that hereditary? (glad you and your brother dodged that bullet!)

Yum! Nothing better than a fish fry. (unless it's a crawfish boil!)

Dang! Talk about a double whammy! Wonder how these are...

Feast or famine!
