You have longhorns? I miss my longhorns so much! I used to have longhorns that I bought right off the Wichita Refuge. I can't wait to move back to OK and get a few longhorn cows again.

Recipe, please!
I don't have an actual recipe. I take the okra pod and slice it like you would if you were going to fry it, season it w/ savory spicey seasonings of your choice (I have used garlic powder and black pepper w/ a cajun mixed and also w/ a oriental spicey mix seasoning)...

Oh no! I'm so sorry! I'm scared to death for my birds since all I have is silkies. I've been putting frozen juice bottles in their coop and giving them frozen melon everyday when it's hottest. So far so good...but it sure is scarey! We've got a big church picnic with fireworks...

I've lost two of my squash plants to bugs. I guess I'll plant some more. Our corn should be ready by the weekend. We just bought one of those food baggers that sucks all the air out and seals shut. Worked really well on the six cockerels we put up on Monday. I'll be using it on...

My 7 week old OEGB rooster charged me yesterday. He has a serious shorty man syndrome, little cocky boy. I just walked towards him aggressively and he changed his mind real quick.
Is there anyone who lives near Medicine Park? I was wondering if the log home on Four Mile Road and the surrounding houses were ok after the fire. I built that house when I lived in Lawton.
