Welcome back lovely lady, thanks for visiting! ๐
That's so nice of you to say, thank you very much! I know right, they're so cute and it looks like some of them are wearing pantaloons, LOL! ๐
Awe, you're making my day, thank you. I'm not very artistic and am trying to get a bit better at it, but you're right, the bread was tasty and it didn't matter what it looked like. I might need to make another loaf today, or maybe tomorrow. We usually make fresh bread a couple times a week, always on Friday, to get us through the weekend though and I've grown to really enjoy the process of kneading the dough. I find it kind of therapeutic, honestly, just let my mind wander as I'm doing it, it's a great work out and relaxing at the same time. I know that sounds kind of contradictory, but its true. ๐
Feel free to come over to see more pictures of the chicks each week, there will be pictures for at least a few more weeks while we wait for the younger ones to get fully feathered and grow big enough to stand their ground with the main flock, maybe more if Pansy decides she wants to become my house chicken. LOL! ๐
Okay, my tea is gone, so that means it's time to get off the computer and get to work. I'll chat with you again soon. ๐
God bless you and yours. Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! ๐
I hope you had a therapeutic bread day yesterday! I can totally see how the activity would be stress relieving... like a zen garden... with delicious carbs! ๐ Perfect ๐
Excited for my next chick fix hehehe Hope you're staying warm up there (I'm in ohio and I'm freezing today haha)
Bread dough kneading is indeed very therapeutic for hands, wrists, fingers and for me, it also helps me work the kinks out of my stiff shoulders and neck muscles while I'm working the dough; (and if I'm having a bad moment, I get to give the kneading a little extra oomph and work out my frustrations while helping my dough get softer and puffier at the same time. It's a win-win, for me. LOL! ๐
I'm not sure what happened last week...I wrote a blog post, but it never seemed to get posted and has vanished from my blog writings completely. I'll have to try to republish it so you can get your chick fix, though there are a few chick pictures in this one, too. ๐
The wind has been crazy here and it just cuts through any layers we put on. It's been hard getting anything going this week because the winds make planting seeds impossible, unless you didn't mind them planting everywhere and anywhere the frigid winds would take them as you tried. That didn't sound like a good time to us, so we said, no, and its a good thing we didn't do any as we have woken up to frost several times this week and still have at least another one to come before the end of this month. I wear two vest, two shirts and a sweater most of the time around here, though there are a few days each year that I end up in just a t-shirt and pants (too many mosquitoes to go around in shorts for this grandma, they love my pasty white redheads flesh), but that's rare. Though I'm in menopause now and the hot flashes are hitting more frequently, maybe this will be the year I don't wear sweaters most of the summer. This grandma can dream, right? LOL! ๐
