That hen will be nice for your tom. Have you ever had a pair hatch poults for you?

no, we've never really had turkeys, we did raise ten white breasted turkeys for meat many years ago but not since

If only you lived closer - we love yellow string beans.

and if i could figure out a way to send them to you i would, but don't think i could even overnight them and they would still be fresh

i need to put a rubber glove on my left hand and go out and transplant some pepper plants here in the yard, i planted a few seed from one of the retail seed places that i can grind up for paprika
ones called alma paprika pepper, the other one is for chili pepper, called red mushroom chili pepper(with a name like that, gotta try it)

I just found her wandering outside the pen! I don't know where she was earlier, they all come running whenever I call them...looking for a treat! I'm so relieved that we don't have a predator on the loose!

Glad you found her! Do you suppose she has a nest out there in the weeds?

Hi Deb! Nice to see you are still with us Missing due to just too much to do with your house?

it's Monday people!!! get a move on!!

I'm moving, I'm moving! Sheesh what a slave driver

Fed the cats, chickens and alpacas. Got the alpacas' temporary small pen closed off. Vet coming later this morning to do Laddie's teeth. They are quite long, I really should have called probably a couple of years ago. I have no idea how the vet plans to keep him still, he really doesn't like to be handled though he was better about getting sheared last Thursday than the prior 2 times. We've actually skipped him twice when we did Teddy because he fights so hard. We (sister in law and I) sheared Teddy yesterday and the stand is still in the alpacas' part of the alley just in case the vet thinks it would be useful.

Now I'm feeding me

Sounds like you've already had a busy day Bruce. Good luck with the alpaca teeth!

Good morning all! I hope you have a great day!

Good morning everyone!

Good morning Debby!

Good morning folks

The beef and broccoli from the site you shared is good, so is the Italian sausage. But this is one of my favorites. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/73634/colleens-slow-cooker-jambalaya/

Good morning Debby, have a great day

Good morning Bob! I'll have to check this recipe out!

Hi Bob, that jambalaya looks good! I've printed the recipe off and will add it to the things to try.

The General Tso's Chicken was a big hit here last night. And plenty of leftovers for lunch today. Here's the recipe if you want to take a look: slow-cooker-general-tsos-chicken The only change I made was using just half the brown sugar (1/4 cup instead of 1/2) and I used 1/2 teaspoon dried ginger instead of 1/4. Also, next time I'm going to double the sauce ingredients, the rice tends to soak it up. Very good stuff though!

Thank you for the recipe Debby...I might try this for dinner today. We are canning beans & tomatoes, so a slow cooker meal will be perfect!

Good morning everyone

Good morning Chrissy!

morning debby, rj chrissy and everyone
have a great day

Good morning Sharon!

Good morning CT! My move on is awful slow today...I think it's retired too...

Glad you found her! Do you suppose she has a nest out there in the weeds?

Thank you. This is the first time she's been out of the pen, she could have laid an egg outside of it yesterday, but I'm hoping her escape was a fluke & it won't happen again!
