Yesterday I made one of my most favorite family meals ever. I grew up eating it and I don’t know if it has a proper name but we just call it “ham, cabbage, carrots, potatoes, and green beans”. And that’s exactly what it is, plus an onion and some water. It doesn’t sound very exciting, […]
We should have a couple litters of rabbits this week. Penny is up first and she went right to work building her nest as soon as I put the box in her cage. She is a first time mom and you can never be sure if they are going to have good instincts. It is […]
