About Me
Nearly everyone dreams of moving to the country, but few people are crazy enough to actually do it. I'm one of those few. In 1994, at 26, I sold my little bakery cafe, packed up 200 boxes of books & antiques, & waved goodbye to my native California. Armed with a basic knowledge of gardening, an overenthusiastic sense of adventure & lots of naivete, I ended up on a 280-acre, 140-year-old farm in the middle of nowhere. I became cook, gardener, shepherd, farmhand, vet, surrogate mom, wildlife expert, midwife & undertaker. My prep school education & graphic design background were useless. I went from attending restaurant openings & gallery receptions to working the rural fire dept's BBQ booth at the crafts fair & munching fried pies at country auctions. Seven years ago I moved to an even more remote 240-acre farm which I share with sheep, chickens, 2 dogs, 7 cats, 4 very entertaining donkeys & one really well fed farmguy. My life revolves around food. I write food & garden articles & have taught cooking classes & contributed to cookbooks. I'm a passionate bread baker, and we're slowly building a small wholesale artisan bread bakery here on the farm.

Happy Valentine's Day......BUT it is about CHOCOLATE, not CHICKENS!

Happy Valentine's Day, Susan and all our adorable farm friends!!
O very funny, Jeff, I'm sure.
Whitey and I got cute little People-In-Az.-On-a-Stick for Valentine's Day. ....made of seeds and insects.
Hardy-cluck-Har.
I'm here! I'm here! I'll be your Valentine!!
Happy V Day Susan!
I'm going to start to call you Ol' McDonald:)
You know we love you, lindy (the chicken)!
Aww...too cute! :)
I'm day late, but this series has had me laughing all morning.
Oh, Alisha, you're so sweet. Just keep away from me with that giant needle, okay? This is an all-natural farm--we don't do the antibiotic/growth hormone thing here!
BB & FJBT,
Ahem. I beg to differ!
And Jeff,
Well, I do believe Lindy spoke for both of us. Humph.
Oh Mona! I just knew somebody would want to be my valentine!
Yo, Jeff!
And you don't love me?
Well Amy,
Hardy-cluck-har to you. Sure, go ahead and make fun of us desperate single girls.
P.S. Jeff, obviously your mother has a very sick sense of humor.
Hi Nic,
Thanks!
Hi BB & FJBT,
No chocolate for dogs! But, um, no chicken either, okay? (Or at least don't let Whitey & Lindy know).
Hi Jeff,
Thank you! (Am refraining from commenting on chocolate chicken info. You're six states away--I'm about 150 feet from them!)
Hi Lindy,
LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Mona,
*sniff* I'm not old! : )
Hi Alice,
Great to hear from you. We do cute very well around here--it seems to be our specialty, LOL.
Hi Amy,
Laughing is good--well, as long as you're doing it a great distance from Whitey.
Yo Whitey,
How on earth do you two keep hacking into my computer!? And now you managed to somehow get your own blog??????
Help!
What kind of chickens are these? Yes, I'm a chicken newbie...
