Yesterday…
- I made muffins and eggs and bacon for breakfast.
- I spent four hours on the phone. Four. Hours.
- I made beef enchiladas for dinner. Extra hot and delicious!
- Strat and his sister came over for the Friday fooding. Rebecca gave his sister a friendship bracelet, and had her hair brushed. Recessive girl genes, I swear.
We now have free-range chickens! I just gathered 18 eggs this evening alone! Chickens are the easiest, most rewarding animals we have ever owned. You bake so often--have you ever considered getting a chicken or two? Check out these Eglus (there's no way I'd ever pay this much, but they sure are cute) http://www.mcmurrayhatchery.com/product/eglu.html
We've thought about it, but we're living inside the city limits. Not that it stops our neighbors...
When I get my 40 acres, though, it'll be another matter entirely.
Hens are quiet enough that I doubt your neighbors would even know they were there. This book is a good place to start: http://www.amazon.com/Chickens…1580174914
