I just spent a half an hour playing hide and seek with this little beauty! What brains they have, when I hid behind a bush it peeked over to that side to see where I was and when I went closer it ducked down behind a rock. Now, the question is....how many siblings? I've put out water for them, the mice are pretty shrewd and we haven't seen our lizards in days. Hmmmmm, who ate them or did they just flee?
JB's question is, where's Mom? How about, where's Dad? I'd come in to post these wonderous photos and JB came back to the house, passing the apple tree...guess who was sunny herself beneath it? Mom! All 6 feet of her!
Yesterday was bread making day, here are the results. Peasant Rye and Buttermilk. Fantastic texture to both.
Had gotten my order of 50 pounds of flour from King Arthur and was inspired to bake. It was also too windy to be outside.
It starts......
As of today, June 1st, we have two wildfires going in the surrounding area. One to the east and one to the west. The air is getting denser and the visibility is around 8 miles. Pretty early, but then we haven't had a decent rain in months. Please...send rain!
