Bad Turkeys… and We’re Playing More Games!
It’s the last day of our 3 day celebration and we’re playing more games… I think we’re finally getting our fill of games, at least for a little while. Our turkeys have been acting like bullies and if they don’t quit they just might end up in the freezer.
Did the Salt Water Work? Continuing the Experiment…
Well, there wasn’t any ice in the bucket this morning. I’m not sure if it actually worked or if it was because the coop is insulated and the temperature didn’t get as low as it normally has. So I’m continuing the experiment.
Christmas Lights at the Park
It was a busy day! Started out with chores, then we got a new to us dishwasher delivered, and ended the day watching the lighting of the Christmas lights at the park.
Cozy Fire and Scary Coyotes
We started out the day with the usual chores. Milking is quickly coming to an end for the year as we dry up the goat. I’m looking forward to having a break from milking but we sure are going to miss the good milk.
We found that a couple of our chicken’s nails grew long so we caught them and trimmed them up. The day ended with a relaxing fire and star gazing… until the coyotes started howling… then the relaxation was over.

Fermented Pickles Ready, Swimming and Games
It was a busy day with all the usual chores and garden work. The fermented pickles were ready so I got those packed into new jars and ready for the fridge.
Once all the work was done we made time for a little play and fun too.
Making Fermented Pickles
Finally had time to make up some fermented pickles. I just wish I could have had a chance to pick the cucumbers a little sooner because they were a little over ripe.
For more info on fermenting and a printable recipe check out my blog post, Fermented Pickles.
Checkin’ Out the Garden
