I feel as though I have been dragging myself though this week. I have a little head cold. As Aj is out having a catch up with a mate, I'm just sitting here at the table making Christmas decorations, talking to my sister on the phone, and playing on the net.
NEW CHOOKS
Just got some new chickens for ourselves and some more that we are quarantining for Paul. Paul took the 9 silver laced girls and 3 others so I felt lost without my tribe. They are such nice friendly birds. But we are back to a 49 head count and I am happy...until he wants to take others back hehe.Ours

TAKE NOTE OF THE FOLLOWING.
On Monday I received a text from a friend '...Just wondering if you could put your thinking cap on and make Miss B some fabric tea bags?...' Well I did and this is how they turned out. Do you like them? Cute aren't they. Best of all, I made Miss B, my girls and two blessed 'blog followers' some. Just comment below this blog that you would like some and on Sunday I'll announce the two randomly-picked blog followers. Easy as! I'll then just need your postal address.
Happy rest of your week.
Chat soon, Mel xo
Multitasking!
ReplyDeleteLove the tea bags! Gorgeous - if only my girl was still small! Great post for the Garden Journal! How do you find having roosters? It is something I am considering... apparently they help keep Miss Foxy Loxy away. xxx
ReplyDeleteNot sure if roosters will keep foxes away, but they will probably alert you to them. Then again, if the fox came at night, the roosters may not be too alert anyway. Friends have had problems with Tassie Devils and Quolls and I would have said they were fairly equivalent to the Fox in terms of their chicken mission.
DeleteMy Miss B will LOVE those teabags. It sure is going to save me $ on real teabags because I won't have to share mine anymore!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous doll Mel. Will look great in Vic.
