Granny's gone and done it again

That's great! My mom used to make brittle, but she put vinegar in it so it bubbled up and was the "fluffy" kind. I mean it was still hard, but it was thick, about half an inch thick, not the thin kind like a sheet of glass. Still delucious!

we used baking soda to do the same thing.

Got a card today. Beautiful card of the Madonna and the baby Jesus....you know who you are! Thank you. Really made me feel all Christmasy!

I actually have cards done and ready to go out. Just have to slap stamps on them and brace myself for our sphincter of a mailman to give me grief. I swear if he does I'm going to go full red headed German Cherokee on him! You guys may have to start a gofundme page for my bail!

Today I tried to call the dept of Revenue here to find out why we haven't gotten new plates for our car that is now sporting expired plates because our check hasn't cleared yet and we have yet to see new plates after 4 weeks of waiting.....40-50 minute wait.

Tis the season to be jolly fa la la la oh never mind.

Make the mailman some cookies! Maybe his sphincter will chillax.

I have my Fayoumi and Fayoumi cross birds in with my BBR and SDW OEGB bantams. They get along fine except the Fayoumi/Fayoumi cross roosters think the bantam hens and pullets are there for their personal pleasure. The young roosters are walking hormones right now.

Those sure are nice looking hens, Wishing. I have a little BBR bantam pullet who is a cuddle bug also. She flies up to sit on my shoulder or on my chest and tucks her head under my chin. I think she gets tired of the rooster's crap and wants a few minutes of piece and quiet.

I only have 2 older Serama hens with a younger rooster... probably a grandson or nephew to them. The hens get tired of him too. He tries, but never forces himself. Sometimes I let the hens have time alone without him. Poor guy. He gets frantic.

Wish I could keep the seramas with larger birds, but they always start a war.

The van man said something about a breakdown on a car today but he mumbled. Probably lying . Not very good at it. He asked I leave the key in the van and Promised he would have his wife drop him off at 7:30 . I told him the hardship he was putting on me and as he was saying he was sorry I hung up.

lets see if I can keep this straight. I still have close to 30 of the old baby angels in one tank. I have 3 of Megs last hatch in another tank. This hatch of theirs they have about 8 babies I missed in their tank and who knows how many in yet another tank. Today my gold pair spawned .

I did it! Really pleased w myself, as I am NOT a pie baker. Made crust from scratch, too!

That LOOKS great. Bet it tastes as good as it looks.
