So after my rant the day before yesterday I have to say I have enjoyed the snow texture for the last two days. I've heard Eskimos have many words for snow and I understand it. I would describe the recent snow as squeaky, like the sand on a gorgeous Whitsunday island beach.
Add to that yesterday the sun came out in a glorious show. However the cold has come back in so I am sure the texture is about to change again.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to meet some more of my husbands extended family. This time my FIL's brother and his daughter came from Nebraska. So along with FIL his other brother and hubby we all went to a local diner. Food's not bad but I really do miss Melbourne food.
Some disappointing news 2 dead chickens. Hubby and I have transferred the brood from their coop into the barn in cages they were fine for a week but then I went in and sadly 2 were stone cold. They also seem to have completely stopped laying, so we are considering getting some new chicks in the early spring.
Hubby and I are making plans for the garden for next year. Trying to calculate how many plants are needed so we can can/freeze for the following year. I have already run out of tomatoes, cauliflower, green zucchini, brussel sprouts, there are still carrots, parsnips and rutabagas in the garden but when the ground freezes it does make it a little difficult to harvest.
Still must go and make dinner.
Bye
