A number of years ago Arrow chose “John Deere” as the theme for his birthday party. That didn’t surprise us in the least. Arrow has been drawn to all things mechanical. The cake was supposed to look like a farm field with all the tractors. I placed plastic wrap on the top, where the tractors [...]

I debated with myself over writing this post. I don’t really like being negative. I asked a few friends if they would benefit from a post on what I have used, didn’t like & why. The overwhelming consensus was that it would be very helpful. I tried to make this short and sweet. I pray [...]

It was the day of my marriage to The Patriarch. Yes, that makes today our 25th Wedding Anniversary! I [...]

In our preparedness efforts I have considered possibly keeping ducks. Due to our HOA rules we cannot keep livestock, chickens… or fowl. Sigh. I wish I had been preparedness minded when we were looking to buy a home! THIS would not be it, as I am so severely limited in what I can raise to [...]
