From the Homesteading Journal . . .


. . .unloaded one truck full of split wood and stacked it on the porch, split another load and stacked it in the wood barn.  Hubby and son drove to split and load another load, and we helped upload and stack.


 . . . got our first snow on Friday, and a light dusting on Saturday.  The weather went from 60's on Thursdays to the 30's on Friday.


. . . sprouting another jar of mung beans to feed to the chickens.  They love them, and we are getting an ample amount of eggs.

Farmer's Market Basket.....

I borrowed my Farmer's Market basket to hold a current knitting project, but one of the cat's had another idea.

See her (Mattie) all curled up on top of the knitted blocks inside the basket?  I guess that means the blanket will be nice and cozy when it's finished. Ha ha ha!
