Meet This and That, and Obie.
At the beginning of the month I followed my son 6 hours to college. He couldn’t fit everything in his car. Bless his little soul. I love going to his school. Small liberal arts college that has a wonderful, small, quiet atmosphere. With artistic creativity oozing from its fiber. My cup of tea. Anytime, son.
We visited an art gallery where the owner keeps abandoned kitty’s in the back room. I could think of worse things hangin’ in the back room. I brought 3 home. For the barn. We need them as cold weather looms. Mice. Obie (Short for the school’s name, Oberlin) came to live with us. She is a scaredy cat. Hides every time she sees you. Scared of her own shadow. We have never had an animal like that. You’re goin’ to have to get a life, little Obie. You’ll get run out on a rail around here with that complex.
Little scaredy cat, Obie
And we have This and That. They are identical black twins. Can not tell them apart. They are as affectionate as Obie is not. They are settling in and we love having them join the team.
This and That
Other great, great news. Our oldest son is getting married. No, I am not old enough to have a son that old. Pulease. We are just trusting that he can handle the responsibility. Just kidding. He is old enough. I am just not old enough. His love is wonderful and I could not have picked one better for him. We love her and look forward to a life with little Eric and Emily’s running around. They have chosen to have the reception here at our farm. When we bought this property I thought a wedding would be yummy here but having three boys never thought I would have the opportunity. But yeah. We get to do it. We need to get busy……..
This couldn’t be our little Emily and Eric. They haven’t matrimonied yet. I borrowed from internet. Shhh.
Lastly, I read in a magazine for locals near Indianapolis…..I could not believe my eyes.. They were advertizing best restaurants for their burger toppers and one of them was Fermenti Artisan’s at the City Market. IT IS A DELI THAT SPECIALIZES IN FERMENTED FOODS. First ever I have seen this. People are catching on, folks, and if you want health in a jar, fermented foods is a must. I cannot urge you enough. If you aren’t from this area, please look in your health stores. And just give it a try. Please?
God bless,
Karen
