Chicken and yogurt

Today I was cleaning out the frig, I do this on occasion and it is amazing the things I find. Usually it is something that got push to the back and by the time I find it again I can not remember how long it has been there. I have been looking for a new frig and I'm thinking that the ones with the freezer on the bottom, I will be able to see whats in the back of the shelfs, at least that my hope.

Any way I found some yogurt and could not remember when I made it, suggestion; always write on calendar when made. So I thought I would give it to the girls. Put it on a plate and then walked outside to  the yard, called the girls. Here they come running up and if you every seen chickens run, it is really funny.

They looked at the plate but would not get close enough to taste it, just look
Things like this makes me realize why we use the word "chicken" when someone is hesitant or scared to try something new.

I wasn't sure why, maybe the girls just don't like it.
So I scraped it off the plate onto the grass so I could take it in the house to wash. But before I could make it to the door what do they do but go running up to it and started eating. Now what  picky eaters.
Ate it all up, if they had a plate I would say they made a happy plate.

Since I clipped their wing they have been staying in there yard and I have been getting a dozen or more eggs a day. I think all the new girls are laying now. Sometimes the first egg will be really small like this one.
 Isn't it cute . 
It would take a heck of a lot of them to make an omelet.
Till next time

    I love chickens with all their idiosyncracies!! We do get a lot of expressions from them - the best being "pecking order". By the way - I am goldencomet - named after the breed of chicken with feathers the colour of my hair LOL!!

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl c...
