A Cute Helper and a Funny Story ................................................

I had a very cute and eager helper yesterday afternoon at feeding time.

She got busy feeding the chickens ........

then the guineas ........................................


and the goats.


Yesterday morning after our morning coffee , Dh & I headed out to the goat lot to trim their hooves. We finished that chore and headed back to the house. He showered and left to run some errands. I showered and started on the household chores , just routine everyday stuff. The phone rang yesterday afternoon , it was my oldest daughter , she said " Happy Anniversary "! I said " uh , Thank-you ", then I confessed that I had forgot about our anniversary. I told her I thought Dh had to , because he hadn't said anything about it that morning. I also told her" Guess the honeymoon's over (LOL)". She was here at the house by the time her Dad came home yesterday afternoon, she said " Happy Anniversary " and you should have seen the look on his face (LOL). He had forgotten too , he looked at me and said " tomorrow's your birthday ". He thought he was in the doghouse , until I told him I had forgotten too , then we all started laughing. We've had so much going on and some stressful news this week , that we both forgot our 32 year anniversary , we've never did that , it got away with both of us. But at least we couldn't be upset with each other , since we both forgot. As they say " All's well , That ends well " (LOL).
Hope you're having a " Blessed " weekend !

  1. LOL! I know a couple who forgets
    every year and it doesn't seem to
    bother them. She says we're still
    love each other and still married
    and that is all that counts. They
    have a lifetime to celebrate each
    day with one another.

    Happy Anniversary and Have a Very Happy Blessed Birthday if I am not able to get online tomorrow to wish you one!!

    There is a cute little story
    I see with your little helper
    and illustrations to boot!

    I found another spot but
    the pickin's are slim.

    I hope they hurry up and learn.
    Lots of birds and beneficial bugs
    depend on the plants and we depend
    on them too.

    I made a soup also yesterday.

    I made another comment over at
    your clover surup blog entry at
    Herbal Spirits.

    I have a question over there.

    Thanks for stopping by!

    God Bless You and Yours!!!

  3. How wonderful that you could both forget and not be upset. That says a lot about your marriage. And Happy Anniversary - hope you both plan something wonderful together.

  5. Did you post about Cast Iron
    Skillets before? I bought an
    old one, but it smells a little
    rusty and I know people use them
    after they clean them up. Trying
    to find some good info on how to
    do it. Thought maybe you had made
    a blog entry about it.

    God Bless You and Yours!!!

  8. I found it was, Southern Plate
    that had the post about the
    Seasoning of Cast Iron. But it
    is for a new one. I am wanting
    to use natural method. It isn't
    rusty to bad. Just smells rusty.
    No crusted or caked on anything.

    I thought about using vinegar
    and baking soda or salt. Maybe
    steel wool if I can find it or
    a plastic scrubber. Not sure if
    the plastic scrubber will do the
    trick or not.

    I was reading One Man's Wilderness
    Book and Dick Proenneke talked
    about using pinecones of some
    sort to scrub his pans.

    God Bless You and Yours!!!

  9. Hi Flassie ~ We really got a good laugh about the situation , we've never forgotten our anniversary and it was quite a coincidence that we both forgot this year (LOL). I think we do celebrate our marriage almost every day , we respect each other and try to do what's best for one another. A marriage is about us , not I.

    I'm glad you found a new area to forage , look forward to seeing what you find. Let's Pray that they quit spraying and destroying the ecological balance of nature!

    I'll answer your question about the red clover over at " Herbal Spirits " sometime this week.

    Hi JoAnn ~ Thanks !

    Hi Sophie ~ We thought it was funny too. Thanks !

    Hi Lib ~ Thanks !

    Hi Callie ~ Thanks !

    ~ Many Blessings To You All ~

    That is a pretty funny story. I guess after that many years, you just assume every day is a given. You helper looks like she was having a blast!
