Sunna had her x-ray today. We are counting four puppies.

Very cool! I'm assuming the striped lines are the puppy spines? I can't wait to see puppy pictures. (when they are born that is)

 

[mlm Mike]

Yes, the striped lines are the spines.

I say four, but it's not the best picture. Could be something hiding on the left too.

I am taking a small break now. Getting ready for Christmas, I am grating fresh coconut. I got the water out, cracked it up and pealed it. I am now grating to get two cups for a coconut cake recipe. It is an Emeril recipe--I bet he has a sous chef do this stuff...my hands are pretty tired out.

It better be a very tasty cake! (I have baked it before--it is good).

I have hand grated coconut before, and it's quite the chore! I have yet to find an Emeril recipe that I don't like, so I think you are safe. Let us know how it turns out!

I am baking 2 pumpkin pies right now, then I have to get the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake going. And yams somewhere in the middle of all of that. Trying to get as much done today as possible - then all I have to do is put stuff in the oven tomorrow and Thursday.

Mary came by and picked up the 2 Icelandic cockerels.

Those beautiful males will get some hens, and be able to reproduce.

She gave me a fruitcake, that suprisingly doesn't look fruitcake-like. Mary made it, so I'm sure it's delicious. She gave me the cutest gift, but you'll have to wait until I can take pictures first. Mary made me promise to get a picture of it. She left with some jam and a jar of my honey. Her and Michael were really hoping for some honey!

It is a very good plan to get things made ahead! Chocolate raspberry cheesecake should be very tasty!

It is so nice to move Roosters out! I love them but they are so noisy sometimes.

Fruitcake made with good candied fruit is really special.

Ha! I didn't make even a small dent in Kelly's rooster population.

Michael is thrilled with the jam and the honey. He is planning a PB&J here shortly! I am going out to take pictures of my new boys. I had Michael get them out of the crate because they were fighting a lot on the drive. Isi and one boy are fighting between the fence. When Isi gets tired, little old Skye takes over. It is a hoot! She's older than I am I think!

Going out to take pictures now!
