Sunday Sunday La La Lalalala

I probably won't be posting Monday - so here's my weekend wrap up early.

Saturday I went to a chicken show.  It was hot - temperature hot.  I saw a few people I knew, and it was interesting seeing all the bantams (mini chickens).  I'd never be into showing chickens, but it's entertaining to attend.


Here's an update on the Shade Garden.  I never could get the Astilbe to grow, but the mondo grass is hanging in there and the Hostas and Caladiums are holding their own.  I need to put something in the center now - it looks too plain.  I might do a bird feeder or bird bath.



I harvested Shallots, onions, garlic, and chard. 


I made whole wheat sourdough biscuits (like I really need those calories!) :-)


and I started thinking about fixing the toilet.  I got it halfway taken apart - and then PFFFFFT!  I went and watched an episode of The Tudors on surfthechannel.com instead.

Forgot to say, one lot of chooks we had, I called the leader Intellichook, and the second in command, Computerchook. We didn't have a rooster at that time :) We got twenty chooks from a nearby chook farm. They were one year old and had plenty of laying years left in them. They just needed a little TLC.

I got that many chooks because I had five kids and a hubby to feed. They ahd a whole farm to run around on. I converted an old dairy into a house for them, safe from the dingoes at night.

What you describe is heaven. It was my dream to have a little farm and a big family. Didn't work out that way, but at least Ihave my chickens now I guess :-)

We didn't own the farm. It had been sold and was bought by the Endeavour Foundation (a charitable organisation that helped disabled people). One house had been sold off and they were starting another.

We lived in the old original farmhouse. We loved it and could have bought it for removal but decided to build new :)

Heh, the relationship didn't work out, and I ended up with six kids (and various assorted pets).

THAT relationship didn't work out either, but I loved my kids :) They're grown up now.
