We received a box of cranberries from a hunter… and I mean A BOX. I *like* cranberries, but you’d have to eat a lot of turkey to use all those cranberries! I decided to make craisins out of most of them. I pulled out my dehydrator and layered a bunch of cranberries on the shelves. …

You guys are simply a blessing, you know that, right? Writing what I figured would be the most controversial blog post I’ve ever written, I just knew I’d lose readers/fans/lurkers. Maybe I have, but at least they were kind about it and simply slipped away! Thanks for sharing your own stories of heartbreak and hard…
Hard Stuff
Honestly… I really really really contemplated not writing this post. People told me not to. People told me to lie. People told me to just let it go, that you would forget, and I’d be safe. I thought about all the options. But, I’ve tried to be honest on here… and an outright lie just…

Puzzle Blocks
Little Jaxon will have his second birthday party tomorrow. Today I worked on one of his presents. Puzzle blocks. They turned out so well, I have to share! I cruised through my stash of Little Golden Books… and I found Wiggles. Published in 1954. The book is older than I am! But it had a…
Just Another
We worked at gathering the Double Crossing, bringing the girls to the home corral where we could sort them two different ways… Since it’s a short trip, You Know Who, got to be Cowdog of the Morning. As usual, he was beside himself! Although it was 10˚ this morning, by the time we’d gathered the…
