Life on the Homestead. A diary of the day to day happenings on our homestead.The good days, the bad days and those bordering on total chaos. Monday, May 11, 2015. Well we have made it through 12 days and we have no growling goats or slobbering sheep. The rabies threat seems to have passed thankfully into the past. Today was the first day I did much hands on with the animals other than feeding and watering. Some hoof trimming was in order. A hot but busy day on the homestead! What's Growing On The Farm:.

Earlier this week more salsa and tomato sauce. Today spaghetti sauce. The okra has started to produce so of course there must be some pickled and as an experiment this year I plan to bread and freeze some. Wouldn't that be yummy along side a pot of beans this winter?

Both little ewes thank goodness! One is going to be a solid moorit and one a moorit gray. If their mom holds true they will both be polled as she only puts horns on her ram lambs. This cutie was the one born earlier and finally was ready for her photo debut! Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Tuesday, April 28, 2015.

Life on the Homestead. A diary of the day to day happenings on our homestead.The good days, the bad days and those bordering on total chaos. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. A chilly, windy day dawned here on the homestead. Not much to be done outside except tend the animals so I decided some soap making was a good inside chore. As per my usual I ran short of ingredients and was only able to get four blocks poured. Ugh. And after all was finished we decided this looked more like a plant cemetery! A lovely day ...

Life on the Homestead. A diary of the day to day happenings on our homestead.The good days, the bad days and those bordering on total chaos. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. Yesterday was a washout with a damp drizzly day. Soap making was at the top of my to-do list and I got busy early. Soap sales have been quite good and so I am trying to make several batches at least every other week. Today I sliced the bars and now they will be left to cure for the next month. Pretty! And smells wonderful in the kitchen.

I think I shall change the name of my blog to the "Ramblings of a Mad Farm Woman". Mad as in crazy mind you. It has been absolutely nuts around here lately! And as a result I'm feeling a little nutty myself. Let me explain-. No problem I told them I have a permit for something else and I will take care of things myself. Which I have. Another ...

However, once chow came out, all was well. Next was to bring the sheep up. I guess because we have had so little rain and the pastures have all but dried up, I found no evidence of parasite problems in them either. Oh happy day! They were sent to a new field as well. Will keep you posted on the outcome!
