We're trying to grow as much of our own food as we can. It's year 1 on this property. After an almost rainless winter, our small continuous harvest feels gratifying. But it's only the tip of the iceberg.

A now-9-day-old LaMancha goat, currently residing in our laundry room, has had us preoccupied for the past several days...photos to come, of course!

Reminds me of when we would occasionally have a little lamb in our house in the spring growing up. Luckily, a little TLC goes a long way. Good luck and can't wait to see photos! |

She actually came from a dairy and she's doing great. Sweet little thing. Her name's Gertie. |

Exciting! keep us posted. I thought about getting Violet Jaspers this year, but I heard mixed reviews. I'm anxious to hear what you think of them. |

Considering we've had basically no rain this year, and they're hard at work on all the almond trees of the area, I think they are! Thankful to have them... |

I'm excited too-- wondering how hot they'll be. It might not be pretty, but they might make good hot pepper jelly, which I love. And I've never made mole, but these are supposed to be the best for that.... |
