Food and Farming

A pretty regular day. :)  With asparagus.  I feel so weird because I like it so much.

Breakfast was Dorset cereal, blueberries, skim milk.  I don't see how I'll ever tire of this.

Apples are good.

So are sideways peanut butter Lara bars. 

Lunch was the same as it has been lately, a wg english muffin, Laughing Cow cheese and a salad.  This is probably the last salad with greens that I'll have to buy until later in the summer, mine are READY!

I had a tasty orange in the afternoon.

Once home, before working, I had some sideways cottage cheese and walnuts.  Good combo!

I did some greenhouse work, some garden work too.  I'm trying to decide if I should sell at the market Saturday.  It's going to rain all day...but I'm worried if I leave radishes one more week they'll start to crack.  I don't have a lot of experience with radishes, do any of you?

I also got my seed potatoes ready for planting next week. You need to cut the potatoes a few days early, to let the fresh flesh scab up a bit. You need to keep one eye on each piece, and let them grow just a little.

On Monday, I brought some radishes for the lady that brought me the gift. Funny we switched presents on the same day. I think they’re so pretty!

Dinner was a bbq pork tenderloin, potatoes and asparagus.

After dinner I had a Special K Chocolate Crunch bar.  These are good.  I like them when I need sweet, but don't want a lot of food.  I forgot about the vanilla chocolate lamb until after, but there isn't a lot of that lamb left. :)

Lambing is great, we have about 60 new ones right now...about 3 or 400 to go.  This girl is just a few days old with her mama.

On the weekend, The Shepherd said we should probably think of names for the last 2 puppies, that he thinks he wants to keep them!  YAY!  I wish they could stay this small forever!  Now, we'll have 8 dogs, LOL!  8 DOGS!

And here is The Shepherd, looking proud in his barn. :)  Love him.

Have a great day everyone!
