Thanks for posting Karen! I know how hectic things can get just on my small scale farm, so I know you are busy with all you have. My husband has been having some health issues himself and that is one reason I had been following Tony's progress. We have about figured out that my hubby may have...
I have not been on much lately but checked in on this site a couple of days ago and have not seen any recent posts from Karen. Is she ok? I had been following her thread about her husband's medical problems and now I don't even see her journal listed. Just concerned,

I bought two ****ake mushroom logs to give as Christmas gifts this year. One of the girls I gave one to said they are delicious. From what I read, they only produce about 2 rounds or cycles before they are done but it is still a pretty interesting and unique gift for $20 a log. Wish I had gotten...
Oh no Pam. I have been making soap for years now! I have one bar left of the lavendar that I made after Thanksgiving. I gave a lot away at Christmas. I think that is my all time favorite scent with raspberry/vanilla being second. I got in some Lily of the Valley and Autumn something or other...
Well my soapmaking supplies came in today! I am still going to wait until Friday to make it though. Today was a rough day, Wednesdays always are. All I could do when I got home was lay on the couch for about 1/2 an hour before having to do the feeding and milking around here.
On Wednesdays I...
Does anyone on here grow strawberries and have good luck with them? I have planted some here and there but never really put in enough to do anything with. I am now thinking of ordering about 50 of the everbearing. Are those as good at producing as the others that all come in at one time?

I was taking ACV everyday but for some reason got out of the habit of it. I really need to get back to it too. I have a cheap juicer and usually juice an apple, carrot and some cabbage and add the ACV to that. Not bad at all! The juice is really good for you too. I am going to look for the...
Lori, that is one of her two cats. I found them when they were about 3 weeks old on a creek bank and brought them home with the intention of giving them away when they were about 8 weeks old. Well Ms. Amos decided those were her babies and they still are to this day. The one in the picture with...
My husband needs to have every light in the house on. I constantly go behind him turning off lights, tv, etc. Right now the tv is blaring and he is upstairs on the computer. The man doesn't have a frugal bone in his body. I have given up on trying to get the electric bill down. Oh well, if that...
No Punkin, I haven't gotten it made yet, waiting on the supplies to get here as I used up the last of my lye over the holidays. I have Friday off so that is when I am planning to make it. I was talking with one of my clients today about bread and she is wanting to try some of my homemade bread...
Oh, I forgot to tell about the parrots! Chico is a blue front amazon that is about the same age as the oldest monkey. We got him back in '84. The other one is a feather plucking African Grey that one of my clients gave me due to his feather plucking ways. Joey, the grey is probably 12 years old...
We used to have a reptile exhibit back in the early 80's and as a result of that I came across a copy of Animal Finder's Guide and they were advertising monkeys for sale among other exotic animals and reptiles. I had wanted a monkey since I was a child after seeing some at a local department...
I guess it is time to let ya'll know more about myself. I have never done a journal of any type so please bear with me here!
I live in west central GA on the border of Alabama, just north of Columbus. We have a 4 acre spread which we bought as raw land about 25 years ago. I didn't start with...
Cackle, I got my pizza peel included with my baking stone at Bed, Bath and Beyond. I think it was around $15. good info on the fats! another book i need to add to my library! I made another round of bread using some freshly ground flour and it came out dry and crumbly. I still have some in the...
