Happy Easter

The sun rose of a cold landscape here in Wyoming this morning.  19 degrees and fresh fallen snow.  Doesn't much feel like spring, but the skies are partly cloudy.  It's a chilly Sunday.

Updates galore!  The barn quilt is getting very close to finish.  Diana will paint a black bucking Wyoming cowboy/horse in the center star.  She should be able to start before May 1.


Brian and Stephanie generously gave us some amazing pork chops from their pigs raised on their farm last year.  I am a bit of a snob about pork chops.  Don't give me a thin cut.  And we were not disappointed!  Thick chops, rubbed with a homemade dry rub, grilled on the BBQ made for a delicious dinner last night.  So good.  Thank you Brian and Stephanie!


Here is the chicken from their farm I did on the rotisserie last week.  We are NOT hurting not going to the grocery store!!

 Next up, the continuation of the sourdough mania.  Seeing blue corn meal on my shelf, I made a half white/half blue corn meal sourdough bread recipe and named it Blue Moon Sourdough.  This makes delicious French Toast!!


French toast, as viewed in my all-time favorite copper bottomed skillet found at a second hand store and purchased for $10. So good!

Lettuce starts have never looked so anticipatingly delicious!!  Heater in on in the greenhouse.  With the sun shining, inside temperature is 68 degrees.  Grow lil lettuce, grow!!


Lastly, the sunflowers came down out of the Freedom garden yesterday, just before the snow storm.  I admire sunflowers' beauty.  They are lovely even after they have long been frost-killed.
