Welcome to The Wary Farmwife seasonal journey! My goal, to blog daily (give or take a day, week or month) to showcase hobby farm life across the seasons. Stop by The Wary Farmwife blog and check out what we're up to...our front porch door is always open!

Wet, snowy, cloudy and slick


Today's weather was enough to make me want to spontaneously book a trip to anywhere sunny and warm!

As I'm a responsible, enough, parent and employee...I'm staying put.

Thankfully, the lambs and mamas are doing great in the warm and dry barn.  I'm even more thankful that Aoife didn't give birth today (she could deliver any day now, likely twins). 

Farmer J is home tomorrow...so maybe she'll lamb then!

Spring must be around the bend, as just this weekend J ordered 9 laying hens and ~20 meat birds.  No turkeys this year...the guys will have enough meat with the lamb, chicken and pork. And we can't forget the great protein source of the amazing farm fresh EGG!

Again this weekend, we collected half a dozen eggs...which made our homemade chocolate chip cookies taste even better!

Wishing you all warm, gooey cookies on a cold and dreary day like today!
