Granny's gone and done it again

Not bad! About 8" across, fairly round, nice and thin, reasonably soft, and tasty. I think Grandma and the aunts would be proud! And the kids liked them. Thanks for asking.

Well, Christmas 2022 is one for the books. We had a nice day. The temp actually got up to 17 so we took a feed bucket full of corn back and dumped it for the wildlife to enjoy. It was nice getting out in the cold but fresh air and taking a walk in the snow covered forest with my sweetie and two of our dogs.

This was a nice Christmas. Hope Santa was good to y'all.

Now on to New Years!

Glad you had a good one, so did we!
Really looking forward to temperatures above freezing.

Had a headache today, which turned into a migraine. So not much got done today.

It was -11 when I got up this morning. Windchill around -38 but yeah, the danged wind is gusting almost to 40.

I went out and carried 4 gallons of hot water to the birds along with a dozen hot hard boiled eggs smashed for them to enjoy. They aren't fairing well in this cold. The poor little bantams are huddled in a corner and the rest are on the roost bars fluffed up like basketballs. I chipped out a water hole in one of the big bowls and it refroze within 20 minutes.

So I trudged down to the barn and dragged out a bale of straw and put it down between the two coops for extra insulation. I'm seriously afraid if I don't put up a heat lamp I will have fatalities to this cold. I have one outlet that is safely secured that I could put one in. I used it last year during the day, turned it off at night and it helped them a lot.

Every time we get weather like this all I can think is....we sold the property in Florida.WHAT WERE WE THINKING?

I "think" the coldest this round was -23 with windchill -57*

We had wind gusts of up to 60 mph yesterday. Took Angie and Lacie over 4 hours to travel 100 miles on the interstate , took me about 2 hours to run out to the farm and back yesterday. Visibility would go from great to about 100 feet and then the icy spots and pillow or bed sized drifts.
