Nutella caramel apple

Cut a wedge out of the side of an apple. Reach inside with a melon baller and remove the core. Fill the cavity with nutella and replace the wedge. Dip Apple in melted caramel. when cooled drizzle with chocolate, then sprinkle with chopped nuts. Mmmmm.

^^ Best idea ever!!!

Just had a hawk attack. It swooped down and tried to take a call duck. The duck is fine and the hawk was chased away. Good thing our livestock dog was out watching over her birds. Funny thing is she is a maltese/cairn terrier whose name is Zeva.

Oh my!!!

So glad the duck is okay!!!

NCIS wasn't on this week due to the election. I think the other way around would have been better

The apples look sooo good. But buying apples is just heart breaking, spending a fortune on apples that end up having bad spots in a day or the skin looks scaly. I miss going out and picking them when I want them.

Glad your duck is ok, Theron.

What a beautiful day today was! Been outside cleaning chicken coops all day... in a t-shirt!

Thanks Laura for asking. Feel a bit better, but still stuffy and coughing.

Hope you all got to enjoy today.

Well, got the run covered. I think I did a pretty good job for a nut case who just flies by the seat of her pants and hopes it all works out in the end.




I still have to finish the tops obviously, but! They now have a nice snow free place for the winter.Trying to decide if I should run a bit of fencing around the top to discourage any critter from trying to get thru the tarp. I haven't had anything get on top of the coops yet. Yet being the key word there...

I love bantam cochins...me thinks we will have a few more next spring! lol! (My hubby won't notice a few extra banty's running around, right?)

Lol! Oh of course not. I try to convince myself o that all the time.

Seven eggs from eight layers today That's the most eggs in a day for us - six of them just started laying and the other two began in August. There's still almost six hours for an eighth egg...but I won't make any bets since they're already on the roost. I do have one though that leaves an egg for me before daylight most mornings.

Ugh, I just spent $80 on a chicken I'm picking up at the Ohio Nationals this weekend.

Thank goodness I just sold those two Squawkers parrot toys on ebay for $100 each this past week to pad my wild chicken spending-spree. Oh, and I should also probably be grateful for a very understanding husband...

Nova- I like your snow-free zone!
