I never used to care for venison, and honestly, it's still not my favorite meat, but I can fix it so it's tolerable, even tasty if I can it. I'm not going to refuse fresh venison anymore, it's now a blessing.
So I pray for safety, and two or three nice sized deer for these guys.
Oh BTW, I don't hunt either. :)

Drizzle and snow, cold and wind, a perfect day to stay inside and bake. I'm blessed that I can be so picky and not have to work outside today if I don't feel like it. Tomorrow they say, the sun will be out and I can enjoy being outside.
This is just a random picture I stuck in here, because I thought it was pretty. My daughter took it up on Beauty Mountain which is a few miles from our house.
I just pulled the brownies from the oven and put the granola I made in the fridge. I have this cup of coffee to drink and the Saturday paper to read. So much to do....
I discovered that I have a dairy doe that's expecting in a couple of months. Not a good time to have kids up here. I thought I had been diligent enough to prevent this from happening,but....
I have a Saanen buck coming to breed my other dairy does and the Angora does should be bred already. I have three sheep that won't come home. I'm thinking of organizing a sheep round up with some friends and see if we can't get them into their paddock. They are a wild bunch.
Washing and carding fiber, that's what I want to get done on these drizzly days. Cleaning for Thanksgiving. I'm going to use Kim Wolf's idea for furniture polish- some olive oil with a little lemon or orange oil in it. I have so much to be thankful for. Don't we all?
This is kind of a hodge podge of thoughts, hope you followed okay. My son wants to get on here and play some Indiana Jones. He likes to read over my shoulder to get me to speed up. It works.

One of many books available at Back 40.
I don't know how many of you have a weakness for books, especially homesteading ones, but it's a major problem of mine. There are sites out there full of these books and I just visited the Back 40 Books site. I ordered a homeschooling math book for my son called "Arithmetic in Agriculture". It comes with a teachers' book and is for 8th grade and up. I'm so excited. This is the kind of practical knowledge that we need here on the farm and it's an old book, kept in print by the Amish.
Be sure to check out the November issue of Homesteading News. You can find the link on my side bar.
Have a blessed day.
