Think it got up into the 50s today, and was sunny. But expecting freezing rain tomorrow ! Made pizza for lunch, pepperoni for Herbie, anchovies for me. Was yummy.
Am currently boiling down maple sap into maple syrup. It's sweet, starting with that distinctive maple syrup flavour. But there is lots and lots of boiling down. Have a huge stock pot on the stove, and a crock pot full on the counter. The moisture in the air is making the peanut butter cookies Herbie baked yesterday gooey ! Made my water kefir yesterday with some sap. Interested to see how it works.
Looks like we have 4 geese laying, and found the first duck egg today, just lying on the ground below the new orchard. Yesterday I hung the eggs sign down by the road, we have enough now to sell to everyone, not just by request :). Always a good thing.
Herbie tidied the garage yesterday, we're short another cat bowl. Anni takes them outside, but I couldn't find it. Did retrieve the dogfood can and the fork she'd stolen and taken outside.
The twin boy lambs are so cute. Watch them running and playing. Also like seeing Boytjie playing with his son, Shaw. That bull is all heart :). Think I chose the right one to be our herd sire.
Herbie invited me for a walk in the woods this afternoon, to see the creek which is flowing strong. Anni chased a deer, and there was still a fair amount of snow. There are so many wild black raspberries out there. Think I need to get the brush hog out.
