No pictures. I'm not taking the cake with me now.  It literally fell apart.  I tried to frost it but it's pretty pathetic looking.  My family can eat it, but I'll be taking something else to the potluck.

I cover all the bases. Spray the pan with baking spray, add a parchment round to the bottom, then spray it. From a class I took, of course! I'll bet it tastes fantastic though!

I'll be doing that from now on.

I'm in the who cares how it looks taste is primary contingent

- although I LOVE looking at Mary's food pics, you can almost taste the food.

Mary maybe you could print up some of your pictures to sell in the shop - maybe vintage or distressed frames?

I had another Barnevelder on the nest last night.

Good luck with your hatch!

Yep, they are broody machines, but they are oh so pretty!

So elegant and pretty.

Good day in the shop yesterday. Kelly popped in for a visit and we were able to take a short walk for some food while Michael manned the store. I was alone the rest of the day and sold the tall dresser with the decorative tole painting on the front! I have had that listed on my Facebook groups and Craigslist for months and kept reducing the price and it didn't sell. I am taking a class on profiting from repurposing and refinishing furniture and how to properly price it. She stresses that we cannot undervalue our pieces and provides a pricing chart. When I put it in the shop I raised the price by $135. A lady that admired it the first day we opened called yesterday to say she can't stop thinking about it. She came back yesterday and bought it for the full price!

Glad things are going well.

More pictures!

I'm glad to be home from work this afternoon, picked up a bug over the weekend and have felt worse every day, now it is in my sinuses and wow what a headache. But I did get 10 chicks hatch

- well 11 but one could not walk and had to be put down.

Contgratulations! I hope you feel better soon.

I finally have a broody hen! Not certain how long she has been at it. She is actually setting in a nesting box which is about the last place I ever look for eggs.

You all stay away from me

It is contagious!

I have a new one in a nest box last night and this Morning. I will need to move her into the cage in the Garage and send the one from earlier this week back out this weekend.

I am getting very good at breaking broodies!

Aww Happy, sorry the cake didn't turn out. And now, I have learned a secret about spraying, and spraying again! That cake won't stick!

I worked on breaking my white silkie early this spring. It worked great with a big rabbit cage, up on legs..perfect size of squares for the walking on.

Mike, you sound happy about having a broody. You must have eggs for her.
