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.

I can't take it...the cuteness ! I just want to lay down and hang out with the little beauties.
Hi Leigh,
That would be nice, especially in the sunshine. : )
P.S. The cuteness can get a bit overwhelming. Sometimes I completely forget what I'm doing and just stand and stare, mesmerized by these adorable, woolly, bouncing babies.
The other night I was feeding hay and four of them were doing speed laps around and around and around the barnyard. They were so fast! It was hysterical. Who needs TV?
And I think it is hysterical when Chico does speed laps around the house. We call it "really running"...it always make me laugh so much. When I am depressed I think Chico does it on purpose just to make me laugh.
If I could only see the babies "really running !!!!
