Welcome, definitely some striking colors there and I love that coop set-up. Are you hoping to hatch for more or expand on breeds? Personally I've been aiming to get more egg colors. I'm hoping for an olive egger next year...depending on if my Black Maran does turn out to be a boy.
I think the white silkie would be so handsome! I had a black silkie last year. I spent the first 3 weeks thinking he didn't have eyes due to his head feathers.
I got very excited when one of mine started laying again. She was the odd one out by holding out for the last month. Everyone else was popping them out.
Yum! I had to go with tea today for a lower caffeine content...so far as I know anyway. I did get to try some caramel coffee concentrate yesterday. It was pretty tasty with some steamed milk. I'll try it as an iced version eventually.

We had a VERY late christmas gift giving with my sister and our friend. Due to some scheduling difficulties, our Christmas tea party ended up happening in February. My sister got my a chicken keepsake album that I am currently filling out and deciding on the pictures I want to add.
Very minimal "baking" for this recipe, but definitely cooking involved. I made a blackberry earl grey tart for my tea party this week. It involved a lot of standing over the stove and rechecking my recipe to monitor and translate "when it becomes thick and bubbly."
