Welcome Spring!

It is has been a very nice week so far. I am sore though from cleaning flowerbeds. My flowerbeds were part of a pasture longer than they have been flowerbeds. So I get lots of things that cows would love to eat, but are just plain ole work to get out like... clover. I was pulling the clover out and I could in my mind hear the sound of a cow breaking the stems and the chewing sound they make as they hog down the grass and then I thought of the far away look in the cows eyes as they burp and chew their cud out in the warm sunshine. I thought it would be nice to have cow eat all of this clover instead of me pulling it but then they would eat the flowers too.

Today our " Mostly Sunny," Is cloudy and windy. The heaters keep clicking on so I know it is not as warm as they said it would be today.

Yesterday for spring break, it was a nice day too. My husband started a fire in the fire pit and we roasted hot dogs and had S'mores for dinner. It was very nice sitting with our kids talking around the fire and everyone cooking hot dogs the way they like.

I found out, I like my stove. I was hungry as I had been working all day and that salad at lunch was long past.
My hot dog didn't cook as fast as I wanted. I wanted to be a good sport, but fond thoughts of the microwave did pop into my head. My first hot dog was barely warm, I just put lots of mustard and relish on it.
Did you know ash adds a bit of crunch? I pretended it was pepper.
I never make S'mores for myself to eat. I had two last night. They tasted better than I remembered.
Have I ever mentioned that I can't eat chocolate? I did last night, it was good. I really expected to wake up with bright lights flashing in my brain as I get migraines so bad from chocolate. I like living on the edge.
I was great this morning, just sore from the flowerbeds.

I just thought I would check in, my daughter wants to cook dinner tonight. I like this spring break thing. I like other people cooking. I am feeling rather spoiled I admit.
Now, I am going out into the partly sunny, to feed my chickens,
that is if I can walk. :)
Have a great Wednesday!
