Good morning.
In a few hours (it is up now)we will be on at Old World Garden Farms. So far this morning they have an interesting article on compost! Well, we all know how Daisy and I feel about our compost! Our farmy post will go up about 9am. (Later: It is up so just click on the above link!)
I shall come back after doing the mornings work and I will collect the link for you and pop it into this message. Jim and Mary said they post at 9am, which put me in a quandary as there are a number of you who are early birds like me, time zones being what they are, and after the rumbles of mild panic last time I did not post at dawn, I decided that today I will pop in twice and amend this message later in the morning with the link. Hope some of that makes sense.
If you are new to the pages this wee article is like an introduction to the farmy, things will probably make much more sense to you after reading it. I did enjoy writing it and am very grateful to Jim and Mary for coming up with such a great offer. Hopefully there will be many more little farms on their pages in the future for us all to discover and learn from.
The Tentative GOOD NEWS is that Mama is showing signs of being closer to finally producing her lambies. Her udder is starting to fill. Now don’t get excited yet.. she has a wee ways to go, maybe as much as three weeks, but I feel heartened. We are coming into the home stretch. Fingers crossed all goes well. So the batteries in the torch have been changed, her bag is packed and she will be checked more frequently. Like now! I will pop back in later with that link. Or look below, depending on Your time zone it may already be there!
Later: The Story has been posted!!
Good morning!

the waiting is the worst bit i think!.. morning Florence.. c
Daisy probably wishes you could move the pile to the magazine, and not just the photo..
Gotta love a cow with compost issues, AND her own cat.
Great article, Celi. You filled in the blanks I had…I thought you had been raised on a farm in NZ. I didn’t realize that you are learning as you go along. Well done!
yup, raised on a beach! nio cows there, but I spent a lot of weekends on farms! c
Uh oh, looks like an alien life form that last picture. Do I watch too much sci fi?
Tulips are a bit alien anyway, but yeah probably too much horror/sci fi.. (laughter) c
I really enjoyed your “guest appearance,” Celi! It was fun to learn a little bit more about you. Delightful! Debra
Morning Debra, thank you for popping over and reading.. c
Such a beautiful life…
It is! yes it is.. we all should have a beautiful life! c
Oh.. baby lambs!! I can’t wait to see what photos you come up with.. they’ll be sooo cute and springy for the rest of us city slickers!! Now keep us posted!! I’m heading over to your link now! TTFN!! xo Smidge
Morning Smidge, the waiting for the lambs is so LONG!! c
Thanks for linking to the article. Being new to your blog, it was helpful to see the big picture. Good for you! And thanks for the heads up concerning the ram–not to turn one’s back. 🙂
Oh no, a Ram is not to be trusted, even a sweet one like Hairy! Good morning.. c
Had to return to read the article. Simply wonderful. (Oh, grew up with a woodburning stove – you can cook just about everything -and it warms the place up really well!)
