It's been a (HOT) good week up here: full of beach field trips with the kiddos, evenings on the patio, and lots of BBQing. :) Oh, and I made green tea icecream using our ladies' eggs - so refreshing!
Last weekend we celebrated our friends' wedding. We had a lot of fun and it was so exciting to see them tie the knot. Jon was a groomsman and I did the flowers. We danced all night!
We are up to 6 eggs every day from our chickens now. The smallest bird has just started laying and this morning I found this under her in the coop...

| Don't know if you can spot the size difference, but Brave's egg is on the left. She's just learning... |
Tolmie got a treat for breakfast since the egg was not much larger than a quail's.
That's all for today. I'm off to watch a little Downton Abbey, while I work on my advent calendar for Christmas. I decided to break from knitting for a bit [before I get to work on my market bag
orders ;)], so I've pulled out some cross-stitching.
What crafts are you working on?
Enjoy your weekend, everyone. xoxo
So fun seeing the progress your hens are making - and that Tolmie is right there, so interested!
ReplyDeleteWould love to know what ice cream recipes you've used. I've tried about ten now, and have gotten mixed results. Haven't been able to master that creamy texture.
Do you read Annies Eats. She has a heap if really good ice creams on her blog. One vanilla that doesn't use eggs and turns out fantastic everytime!
DeleteYes! And I follow her on Instagram, she's been posting an ice cream everyday this month, thanks for reminding me! I'll definetly give the vanilla one a try! Thanks!
DeleteI am looking forward to my ice cream machine to make a regular appearance again this summer!
