Mule sheep are coming to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

Why do you care about any of this?
Maybe you don’t, but you should.

“My memories, accomplishments, and unfriendly reminders of my failures.
A history of stock that is no longer here, but once was, and is now only a folded up slip in an envelope.”

“As we put together the lasagna, I couldn’t help but wonder if, after ten years of marriage, this is what we could have imagined it would become…”

Sometimes life on the farm is crazy and I want to get off this train, but I wouldn’t trade it in for the rat race for a second.

Few things excite me more than interior decorating (and eating). Maybe it’s because I’m a woman, maybe it’s because I’m a stay-at-home, but, it doesn’t matter: everyone likes being someplace pretty.

“Puchero” is a Spanish stew that hails from Spanish-speaking countries and colonies, and is traditionally made with some cut of pork, beef, or maybe a chicken thrown in for good measure, and chick peas.

This recipe is from Hank Shaw’s cookbook featuring waterfowl, titled “Duck, Duck, Goose.”

It is traditional and straightforward, with room to play with root vegetables placed underneath.
