Tomorrow night and Tuesday we're expecting 4 to 6 7 to 8 inches of sleet and snow, with thunderstorms, flood warnings, and ice before that. Here we go again.

  6. LOL - I love that! even DH who is doing the end of the month books and not a happy camper laughed. We are experiencing a touch of the vile finger of winter again (yeah I've reached that point - I need me some springtime!) but hoping this is the last blast and we can move on to real life. Thanks for the donkey joke - classy donkeys since they don't order off the prix fixe huh?!

  9. It's nice to see them all together so you can see how different they really are. Do they come running when you "deliver" their food, or do they just kind of mosey-on over?

  10. Hi Susan! What a great pic of Dan and his friends.

    I enjoyed reading your post on lamb - we always say that our sheep are lucky because neither The Shepherd or I care for lamb
    so they don't have to worry about ending up in our freezer - the only time it becomes a problem is when there are too many little ramlings running around - but because ours are, like yours, raised with love and care, they are pretty easy to sell (people must make their own arrangements with the butcher tho)

    Hang in there - it may not seem like it but, spring's coming soon. T.

  11. I have a question - what do donkeys do on a farm? You seem to have a few, and I'm guessing they must do someting to earn their keep. I just can't figure out what that is!

  18. To answer quite contrary:

    Donkeys are used to guard sheep. THere are various dangers like wolves, coyotes, other people's domesticated dogs are a great danger even though people won't want to admit it but they pack up & kill for fun instead of food.

    Llamas are also guard animals.

    I have a donkey, a Guanaco, an Anatolian, my Tibetan Yaks & Highlands are also guard animals. There are two wolf packs on my property & they are also beautiful. As long as they stick to the small wildlife I'm ok.

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!

Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.

I look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy your e-visits to our farm!
