OMG! Is it finally FRIDAY?!?!

Ya know, I went like gangbusters from sun up to well past 10:00 pm yesterday. I think I should go and hibernate until next week at the very least!

I can't remember the last time I did sooooo much cooking for so few people! Two pies, a 20 pound bird, 5 pounds of candied sweet potatoes, 5 pounds of mashed potatoes, two large acorn squash, corn, stuffing,....... and it just goes on from there!

I don't think there is one square inch of space left in the fridge! Anyone for leftovers?!?

Kathy, I'll try real hard to get some current pictures to you by Saturday, if at all possible. If not, I'll have to fall back on some of my older stuff. The work you've done thus far is looking absolutely FANTASTIC!! I love it!!

Knox, I love your li'l Del/Cochin cross boy! What a handsome little fella! All of your flock looks wonderful! Thanks for FINALLY posting some good pictures of all of them! You really need to post more. Quit hiding these little beauties from us!

Scott [har] don't you just love it when the young boys start figuring out what to do, and how to treat their girls well. One of the sweetest sights I've been privileged to witness is in watching my big guy Chief comfort and calm one of his girls, who is having a complete hissy fit, and convince her that the nest box he has chosen for her is the very best there is!

LadyHawk, I think you need to take a trip out to the far corner of your pasture and start looking for signs of an alien space craft having landed in the night. Bill has obviously been abducted and this is a simulacrum put in his place! Albeit a very nice simulacrum, but an impostor nonetheless!

Congrats on the new wheels! Looks like tons of fun!

OK, Chicken Chore time. Y'all know what that means!

Looks like my tooth was abscessed. Soon as I started taking antibiotics, it started feeling better. Root canal tuesday. Yuck!

 

[rancher hicks]

Thanks giving day is over . It was nice but lots of food as usual. I'm grateful considering there was a time in my life when I was eating at the Rescue Mission.

We played bingo later and it was totally fun. We laughed so much. The hostess was scrounging through her regifting box. You know that stuff you get at parties you don't want or need. When you get our age there is a lot of that stuff. If your a lady it's even more. Lotions, candles, party favors and you get the idea. Fortunately I didn't win any games.

DW made a nice Carmel pecan cake. Yum, yum.


Hope everyone had as nice a day.

Love ya ,

Rancher

Oh and Nella, hope things hold out til you get that tooth taken care of.

 

[Serrin]

Oh Nella! OUCH!! Hope the antibiotics can keep it under control until your appointment on Tuesday. Let us know how it goes. Keeping all things crossed that you remain largely pain free all weekend!

Tim, I have a storage shed just full of that kind of crap! One of these days, when the house is done, and I can organize everything that is currently stored in there, I'm betting I will have the garage sale to top all garage sales! Hey! Maybe I'll make enough money off of my junk to be able to afford a round trip ticket someplace down south!

 

[Cetawin]

Nella, ouch. Just been there myself so you have my sympathies. Hang tough till the fix comes.

Rancher sounds like a great day and no winning sounds good too. Hehehe

Amy, oh get on that yard sale in Spring for the next flock gathering here. That is ticket worthy.

One of the women said "boy this smells good" to a bottle of lotion stuff. DW got two wine glasses that she used at dinner yesterday. (non alchoholic of course)

I said next year I'm hosting Thanks giving and the winners should pay no attention to the clucking coming from the box.

They can go home and make a chicken dinner.

Maybe instead of Bingo I can have a chicken plucking contest.

 

[Serrin]

How about combining the best of both worlds, Tim? Rooster Bingo, anyone?!?

 

[kathyinmo]

I read about a chicken POOP game. You mark off the area the birds are in with numbers in squares and everyone picks a number from it. The winner is the one that the first bird poops on.

AMY! Where are the pictures?

 

[Serrin]

I just hit the send button Kathy! They should be to you shortly. If not, please let me know and I'll resend it!
