She was a hoot I must say.... I learned how to cook from her and from Graham Kerrr. When they both did a show together it was hilarious.

LOVED Graham Kerr. I used to fake sick to stay home and watch him (Mom would only let us watch PBS if we were sick...she thought that was a deterrent). He was so funny before he found religion. Really a bawdy show then.

I have a major crush on Vivian from the show "A Chef's Life". And Giada on food network.

Bleh. Vivian's an intellectual twit. We watch her and just hoot at her inane-ness. I think she would be very difficult to work for as flashes of extreme beyatchin' have been surfacing in recent episodes. I imagine she has a pretty good staff turn over.

That South Park episode making fun of food network was pretty funny. They made Giada uggggly. I think it was called " Creme fraiche".

I wanna see this episode!

While cooking I usually have some cooking show on in the background (except Martha Stewart...cannot stand her know-it-all condescending smugness) and recently it was Jr. Master Chef or whatever the title is where Gordon Ramsay has kids cooking. It was pretty funny. One kid throws her hands up "Well, whadda ya expect?? I'm only 9 years old!!!" and somehow they managed to pour a pan of burnt fish down Ramsay's leg into his shoe at a Michelin Chef's luncheon he was was hosting at his house. RIGHT ON!!!!

Sounds nice! Still need to see some pics of the wood during the process

I was DOG tired and wanting to lay down when I wrote this....

but here is the write up

I went up to the house yesterday for the first time in a very long time. It struck me at how tumbled down its becoming.... How infirm I am getting in order to be able to do the little things that need to be done.

My neighbor in what ever sense he was using decided to feed my horse a nasty moldy bale of hay. When I brought him dog and cat food up, the reason for the trip, he said that the hay guy wasn't rotating the bales so there were two bales that got moldy. And Katee wasnt eating it.

I thought he just threw the bale in and realized it was moldy and pulled it out. thats what I would have done... except I would have rotated those last two bales EVERY truck load so none would have gotten moldy. We then crossed the road to my house and the hay was stacked OUTSIDE the shelter W T F . I got out of the truck with my walker and grabbed the hay hooks.

Ten bales are easy to move even for me or so I thought. I looked in Katees feeder and it seemed empty. I looked in and was furious there was moldy hay and hay that had been obviously scooped up out of the mud and put in. And Katee was obviously hungry. Not starved thank goodness. but DANG I brought a fresh hay bale up and tipped it up to her feeder where she could get to it. Then I went in the corral and pitchforked that nasty stuff out.

Then I went out and tipped the fresh bale in her feeder. And I could hear her happy mumbles and munching. Katee talks a little while she eats... funny girl.

By then I was done and shaking. I called my son over from the truck and asked him to move the stack onto the pallets and off the FREAKING GROUND. The one last bale that ws nasty went up against the fence There was one side that was good. she will nibble on the good stuff. I had him put a good bale along the fence too so she could choose ...

Hes got asthma so thats why I didnt ask him at first. But Alfalfa affects him worse. thank goodness it was bermuda. Ten bales layed out two by two on six pallets.

I am going to have to rig a pully system for myself to do this again. and do it myself.

Time to Take up the reins of my life... and live it again

Hay Which was stackd forward and parallel even with the trash can.

Bad bale isnt so bad moved you can see a corner of it by the blue treat bucket

Nom Nom Nom "tank ou mom" with a mouth full of hay.



tumble down remains of the goat yard sight protector.... Old swimming pool wall. it needs to be hauled out. This is approximately where I will move the coop to.


full horse shelter before we re installed the corral under it. its 24 x 24 Katee gets 16 x 24 of it leaves me 8 x 24 for hay storage.

Along that front edge I am considering hanging some
hay curtains Heavy tarp that can be moved out of the way for loading

Oy I loved the two fat ladies too... so sad about one of them. But that was after the food network was on.... I watched Julia and Graham on KPBS which was the only source of interesting TV for me back in the sixties and early seventies.

deb

WOW! I didn't watch her until the late '90s! She was getting old, looked like she had a permanent stiff neck, still cooking like crazy, showing Jacques the 'right way' and hilarious!
She reminded me of my Grandma, real big woman, and full of 'piss and vinegar'. Lol!

I never noticed her recipes. She is as fine as frogs hair

Me either, her cooking show was boring, had me glued though....

Google her. She owns "The Chef and The Farmer". She has the same accent God and I both have

You crack me up! Someday we'll have a beer or dozen!

 

[bamadude]

I look forward to it beercan.
