Fresh eggs from the nests I can't explain the taste difference between those and store-bought eggs. You would have to taste them to know for yourself. Once you do know and enjoy the freshly laid eggs you never want to go back to the store-bought eggs. They spoil you and the baked goods made from them are out of this world!
Having fresh eggslocally or on your homestead can't be beaten. I love my chickens and their eggs. I've raised chickens for over twenty years! I'm especially thankful to have themnow that eggs are exorbitant in price.
The topic of water-glassing eggs has been on my mind lately. A way to preserve the surplus of eggs after you've shared them with others of course.
It is with heartbreaking sadness that I post about the passing of a friend Annie Haven. When you eat A bell pepper, a tomato you will think of this lady and her family.
They are responsible for those and many other seeds. They are the reason we have those things in our country. We owe the family great gratitude. When California was subject to so much drought She ventured away from growing seeds and had the ingenious idea to use her cattle, horses, and alfalfa to make a great natural fertilizer called Moo Poo. She told me once it was becoming harder to grow things organically She persevered growing organically her Alfalfa one of her fertilizers.
With respect for her, because she loved the story. She was the story, she and her family, I'm again posting a spotlight done on her years ago. I remember talking to her while writing and calling her a cowgirl. She set me straight right away saying, "Dolly, I'm not a cowgirl I'm a rancher a cowgirl would work for me".
It is a good read and such a legacy she had and now she has. You too will be amazed at her and her family. They were seed growers and producers for America. She and her Moo Poo have helped many have beautiful gardens.
You probably know of my white rose garden, well Moo Poo played a very important part in making them especially beautiful.
It is amazing how someone you've never actually met can become such a close friend. This lady is one who helped me make it through one of the toughest times in my life. I will never forget her and she will be missed. We love you and thank you, Annie!
This somewhat hoarder of food, china, craft supplies, and many other collections has decided to become a minimalist! The sheer mention of it sends chills!
Have you ever heard of this type of soft bread? I hadn't until the other day Cindy a friend was talking about hers. You know I had to try it. My bread pictured on right baked a little darker than planned, but it was still so very soft and so good! Today I'm sharing a post on this delicious bread that is soft, flaky, and just plain delicious!
