The case of the missing catnip
Where oh where did the catnip go? Once drying on this herb drying rack, it's suddenly missing? One orange, and very curiuos cat, is enjoying it somewhere in teh house.

Horses and Farmwives ~ New Research Projects
Since eHow was purchased by Demand Studios, and writers give all rights to any new articles, I have not written anything new for them. I've looked over the site. I'm not sure I want to give all rights.
Instead of publishing any new articles on-line, I have spent some time at the local library (as well as spring cleaning the house).
I've been researching horses (and goats) recently. Right now I am reading and learning about Thoroughbreds. While I was ordering books through the inter-loan program, I ordered The Soul of a Horse, Life Lessons from the Herd, by Joe Camp. My 16 year-old daughter has already noticed it and wants to read it too.
I have a habit of just walking through the library, scanning the shelves and just picking books by random. I recently pulled Speak to the Earth, Pages form a Farmwife's Journal, written by Rachel Peden. It was printed in 1974, but contains information from newspaper articles from 1961 and 1966, relating to farming. Interesting stuff for sure.
