Well now I don't know if it IS you. After all I've had chickens since 2008 so maybe YOU copied ME.

But if you want the blame for all this, I don't mind.

Anyhow I think things become a trend and then die just like Bell Bottom pants. Fads ebb and flow. This is why I don't freak when things happen.

Long hair and the 60's free love drove people crazy. Now all the kids are bald and well free love will never die I guess. Of course tatts and piercings they too are here to stay. Can't undo those.

Course we might hear a lot of clinking when those nipple rings connect with those navel rings.

Those piercings won't be much fun when dancing in the rain either.


Oh and don't forget Rock and Roll.

"Rock and roll is here to stay - Danny and the Juniors."

No tattoos or piercings here. (other than my ears) I don't understand those rings that people are putting in their ears. Can you imagine what they will look like when they are 90?

Haha same thoughts on the tats, too...

Well now my aunt had a tat of the last supper on her back. Then she gained weight and had to go back and have a few more "apostles" added.

I think there are now sixteen.

Someone buying a buckling from us sells "pig shares". My wife and I are thinking of doing it. We would just take the amount off of what he owes for the buckling. So other than the processing it would be free, and we'd still end up with more cash than if we would have just sold the buckling as a wether.

Do it! We get a whole hog every year, and it's amazing. The bacon is to die for. Make sure the butcher he uses has a smoker though. The first one we got was butchered by a company that didn't, and he brined the ham and bacon. It was so awfully salty. We switched to our butcher and it's been fantastic ever since.

We did it!

Kids, just say no to piercings and tattoos.

My broody who has been trying all winter finally hatched a chick this morning. She has been on the nest for months!

This is how she looked this morning. Very content.



Then I saw why.



I hope this little chick makes because it is all she has. One egg, one chick, one happy mama.

Ditto. Whew.

Last lesson in the Artisan Bread baking is Chocolate Babka. I made the dough last night and refrigerated overnight as per the instructions. Finished it with chocolate filling and shaped it this morning. I made three small loves and they are currently bubbly over in my nice clean oven! Forgot a sheet pan under them. Oh well. They smell divine.

Awwwww, I'm happy she got her little chick.

Out of the oven. Cooling before glaze goes on.
