grannys gone and done it

Yes! I had asked someone who uses broodies exclusively, and she thought is was part of the timing. They stay put of a couple of days after the chicks hatch to let them finish absorbing the yolk. Part of their programming. She's a very good mama. Acted like she was gonna kill me when I tried to pick up a baby. I moved her and the babies to a bigger pen on the ground. She was scratching and digging like a mad thing, but I was afraid for my life doing it. Mad as a wet hen ain't nothing compared to a broody mama hen!

great news !

Guess I'm making up for lost time on the shopping front. I just ordered two tote bags. I have a serious tote bag addiction.

sashimi (Japanese) is slices of raw fish. Very fresh, so it doesn't smell at all, and consequently, doesn't taste like much either. I don't waste my money.

ceviche (Mexican) chopped fish and or shrimp marinated in lime juice (which effectively "cooks" it) with onion, tomato, jalapeno pepper, and cilantro, eaten on tortilla chips, with avocado if you're lucky.

wonton (Chinese) little dumplings, bit of meat- usually ground pork, with spices and other mysterious asian tidbits, wrapped in a very thin wrapper of dough, cooked in chicken broth with added veggies and other bits of goodies. Chinese version of chicken noodle soup.
