Where I was 10 years ago.
I used to sneak blog posts into nap times. Ha! Nap times? What are those? It feels like it’s been ages since I was able to sit down and process my thoughts for more than a nanosecond. And being able to type those thoughts? It’s pure bliss (at least for a writer-poser, like me). A
Big gardening decision… did I make the right choice?
Family Table is here!
Many of you have journeyed with us since the beginning of this blog. What feels like ages ago, Stuart and I were a newly married couple with a first born baby – just two months old. Though we dreamed of a homestead at the time, we were both still in the early stages of such
Homemade Sweetened Condensed Milk.
Homemade Sweetened Condensed Milk I spend time each morning, at least a small bit of time, with a cow. It’s a rare day that my nostrils are not filled will the sharp and aromatic smell of bovine. To me, it smells of “le chalet” – our home. Though our time together is often in the

How to tell when a ewe will lamb.
How to tell when a ewe will lamb. I’ll never be the type of person that has life in complete order because a) I don’t think it’s possible and b) even if it was possible, I still wouldn’t be the type to have it there. A glutton for punishment, I’m eager to bring on the next
My children are giants.
Remember my kids? The little ones who birth stories you read here, and here, and here. And here (almost forgot about that last one). Well, they are now giants that are taking over my planet. I just thought you should know. People say they’ll grow up and, of course, they do. But I can’t figure out
Ham, Cabbage, and Apple Fry
I’m not sure when I became an adult. It could’ve been college (no, that definitely wasn’t it)… or perhaps our first child (probably wasn’t that either)… more than likely it was the fourth child and the weight of responsibility that has come in caring for these little gangsters since then. That’s a lot of responsibility,
Easy Sweet and Salty Pork Ribs.
This fall brought with it the harvest of two large pigs on the farm. Our larder and freezers are still bursting at the seams. I’m doing my very best to wade through Porklandia and I’m loving every minute. Hence the recipe for these easy sweet and salty pork ribs. They’re sweet and salty and easy. Lest you be confused. They’re
How to milk share with a calf.
There are many things I didn’t know how to do as a farmer before the situation was upon me. Lambing, for example. Do you know how many lambings I’d played midwife to prior to owning a sheep that was lambing? Zero. Definitely learned that one on the fly. Same goes for our breeding Old Spots
Date night with my man.
Tonight is date night. Stuart and I went years without taking a date night in almost any form, unless you count trips to the grocery store – with all the children – as a date. I certainly don’t. But tonight is the night that we look forward to the most, because it’s a night when we get
