Baby Chicks???

21 days ago our chicken wanted little baby chicks, thats called "Broody". When the chickens are broody they stop laying. They have to sit on their nests for 21 days. Today and tomorrow we should hear little baby chicks chirping.

They have to be under the Mother for about a week. Tyrell and I are also looking for Smirkies kitties. She has them hid in one of the wood piles we have.We have big huge long piles so we will be looking for them for quite awhile.

Right now I am looking after the banana loaf we have in the cook stove. When I mention that the cook stove is on that means it has to be at 300 degrees. Can you imagine that in a small tiny cabin 300 degrees!?!?

Anyways I thought I would do a quick blog post.

Have a great day:)

A Call For A Medic

It was a call for a medic this morning. Our old goat ( well she isn't that old but she is abit old) Granny May had broke her leg. Mom checked all the goats this morning and sure enough she found Granny May with a fractured bone.

Dad cut up some splints from his wood. I guess you could say that I was the nurse and Mom was the Doctor. I ran inside to find some good holding tape. I couldn't find any so I was going to ask Dad where some tape was.


Dad had some in his pocket. I ran and got the splints and tape. Dad and I were having a conversation about the situation and Mom in the goat pen was yelling "this is an emergency" I gave the splints and tape to Mom so that she could put them on each side of the leg and the tape will hold them together. The first set of splints were to short and they weren't wide enough.

Mom said that I had to ask Dad to double the size and make it wider. The request was promptly explained to dad, as I was running back and forth back and forth to Mom and Dad. We finished the leg and it looked very nice. She is able to walk on it but she's limping.



I did all the dishes this morning with abit of help from Mom. She dried a few dishes while Jesse came up and grabbed the case of water that we had bought yesterday.
Today I am making Brownies. The Dynna boys are known to eat them ALOT, and fast.

I am going to hide a few so that I can save them for company or later after the boys are gone.

In the pot on the stove,
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter
1 cup baking Coco
Beat the eggs with vanilla and add flour separately


Grease and flour the pan.




Put the Batter into the Greased and floured pan!





Into the oven it goes!


I am also making some sandwiches for my brothers and dad... Jesse is fencing and I will be delivering their lunch to them.




Brownies
1 1/3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter
1 cup baking co co
4 eggs beaten
2 cups sgar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanila extract

ICING:
1 teaspoon vanila
2 cups icing sugar
6 table spoons baking co co
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cups chopped nuts (optional)

In a pot, melt the butter, remove and add baking co co, blend in eggs and sugar and extracts. Stir in flour mixture pour into greased floured pan. 13 inch pan. Bake at 350 degree's. Blend icing and spread on hot brownies. Sprinkle with nuts (optional) after cooled... Happy eating :)

Just Starting My Morning Routine

I am just starting my morning routine.I am just waiting for Tyrell to get some flour out of the shed. My plans for today are brushing my teeth, (because I forgot to brush them last night)doing a blog post, (which I am doing right now) baking buns, doing the dishes, and vacuuming.

Yesterday Debbie,Alise,Grace, and Jacob came up. Jacob is getting cuter everyday. I went and set up the table for some tea. I put out a perfect cup for little Gracie, because she always keeps asking us for a sip.

Alise and I were visiting for a bit. We played with my Moms phone. Which by the way is NEW! I think its called a chocolate phone. Doesn't that sound good? I don't know why they call it a chocolate phone. It slides and you text with the keys. Its like a tiny key board and works a lot easier.

Alise and I went outside and played Sims. We went to the generator and got an extension cord so I can charge my computer before it dies. We played for abit. Alise had to go and so we said good bye.

Oh the reason why they came was for their dog Blue to stay with us. Blue is going is going to have so much fun today. Mom is planning for him to chase the cows into a meadow or in a corral or something like that.

Reggie and Blue just love each other. Marshmallow ( my cat) doesn't like Blue at all. Marshmallow clasps his mouth to Blue`s fur and immediately Blue submits. Have you ever heard of a dog submitting to a cat???? I never in my life until now.

I was thinking of baking something with banana's... Maybe a banana loaf... I will ask Mom. I sure hope the weather will be nice today because it looks like its going to rain.

Well I should go and start my routine... I will have to ask Tyrell to do the flour or else there will be no buns. It works all the time, because its true without flour no buns

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Today I am making Chocolate Chip Cookies because my uncle Marv might come for our Friday supper. I will post the recipe today ( well I will try too anyways).Right now I am waiting for Mom to help me find a bucket of sugar because our white container is empty and all as I need is half a cup more.



I was bike riding to day and I was kinda tired afterwards. I guess you could say I crashed because my brake didn't work so I was racing with my self and I hit the post by the horse pen and I wiped out totally. Tomorrow lets just hope I'm not sore...



Reggie sure got some exercise he is so tired he is lying in front of our cook stove and practically sleeping peacefully. This isn't a very long post...sorry.....
