Winter in Georgia is not the worst weather I have dealt with in my life but it can get pretty bitter some days and the wild temperature swings can be rough on everyone. This season has been a touch crazy, it was 70 degrees the week of Christmas and then dropped into the 30’s over the span of two days. Since then it’s been staying pretty steady which is fine – it’s cold but it’s always better when everyone can adjust to one temperature rather than the random ups and downs. I’ve had to break ice out of the water troughs a few times andRead More →

I don’t know about you guys but around here my morning cup of coffee pretty much dictates how the rest of the day is going to go! Nothing like waking up at 5:45 in the morning to feed the critters and finding out that someone used the last of the heavy whipping cream the night before. I’m looking at you kids with your fancy late-night hot chocolate! It’s also disappointing to find out that there is no more good coffee left and there is a pretty big difference between the ‘good’ coffee and the emergency tub of coffee that’s been in the back of theRead More →

It’s officially Fall here on the homestead and with the cooler temperatures, it’s the perfect time to start working on some outdoor projects. It’s also the time to start planning for Spring, which seems a bit crazy but chicks hatched now will be laying by early spring and the lack of demand for fertile eggs makes this the perfect time to hatch out chicks that I can keep for my own breeding programs or sell as started pullets later on. Fall is the perfect time to start all the background work necessary for spring projects. Since last year was a learning and growing year forRead More →

These pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are great slathered in butter for breakfast or as a quick snack in the afternoon. It’s a bonus that the kids loved them too which is pretty much my benchmark for a good keto recipe. If my sweet-toothed kids like them and can’t tell it’s a keto treat then it’s a winner!Read More →

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Dollar Store craft and I have to admit that I missed them dearly. With Halloween (arguably my favorite holiday) coming up I decided to mask up and brave the local DollarTree to see what I could find! The hardest part of the trip was settling for what type of craft to do but in the end, I settled for this fun dollar store Crystal Ball project! I think they will go perfectly with the potion jars we made a couple of years ago. Since I never know exactly how a craft is going to turn out IRead More →
