Cruising...

I was out cruising my favorite bloggers. My friend John at Potpolitics is all about link love. He asked us to share our top 3 bloggers. This was my response:

Aside from you, my friend, my top 3 favs are:

Lacy from Razor Family Farms
Lacy is an awesome young lady that has her head on straight. She tells it like it is. She has started down a path to adopt 4 adorable children. She “Rocks like Kiss”!

Barb from A Cowboy’s Wife
Barb is a great woman who has seen many trials through out her life as a cowboy’s wife. It is a hard life. One that she gladly embraces with her cowboy. She never fails to lift my spirits.

Robbyn from The Back Forty
Robbyn is a fellow homesteader. She blogs about everything. She shares wonder tips. She lets us know how her life plans are going. She doesn’t let these horrible economic times destroy her wonderful spirit.

These are my top 3. Not listed in any particular order. They are wonderful women. I enjoy being a small part of their extraordinary lives. Please do visit them. They will only make your spirit richer.

Thank you, my friend, for this opportunity to share these fabulous women.

Again, I thank John for reminding me of the wonderful people that I have had the pleasure of meeting across the world of blogging.

Stumble It!

What's up on the homestead?

Seriously, now, somebody needs to go to camera anonymous!

Last night, we let the chickens out of their coop to run around the yard... I laughed and laughed. Most of the pictures were too blurry from laughing. But here is a little photo journal of their little excursion! I hope you enjoy them!










Dinner tonight.... brats on the grill fresh corn and beans from the garden. MMMM good!



What is a post without the current SUNFLOWER? We picked the first gourds off the vine today. Let 'em dry and onto bird houses! Yee Haa!



I gotta new toy! A bread maker.... yummy!




Have a great night all!

Ps.... don't forget the contest ends the 31st. Make sure you post on the contest post to let me know you are in!

Having a Sunflower Day!

How 'bout you?

Happy July 1st!

Around the homestead....

The farmer came and cut the winter rye fields adjacent to us to day. He really kicked up a good bit of dust. Sugar didn't like him messing around so close and was on guard all day!

After the garlic harvest, we needed a ground cover, so my sweetie planted rape seed. Boy, did it germinate fast. I love the gourds. The aquaponics is still turning out great lettuce, even in this heat. The last lonely strawberry flower in a bed of sun scorched plants! Poor thing!

My chicks....

They are still hillareous! That is Hilda on the left. Wings out, ready to leap of the roost. She is such a show off. The Bared Rocks are really pretty. All of them are growing so fast. And Stew(Stud), the rooster, likes to strut his stuff. I heard his first crow Sunday morning. The nine chicks we started with are still with us. 8 hens and 1 rooster... I expected more roosters. I feel we will probably get more eggs than what we know what to do with. Egg recipies anyone?

Did I ever tell you that I love sunflowers?

What would a summer post be with out my beautiful sunflowers!





Sugar says... "The paws are tired today, anyone care to give me a paw rub?"
