Now that’s a tasty burger!, originally uploaded by steve_mitchener.

It was a delicious burger that was, in fact, bigger than my head.
Technique is rudimentary but I like the result and you should too.

The first photo of the girls, two of them anyway. Mary Magdaline is the Araucana in the background and Penelope is the Cochin in the foreground. So far they seem happy to be here and we’re happy to have them.
I’ll have more photos later with Alice the other chicken.

Our newest addition to the family. Cooper a.k.a. Copper is a rescue Blue Tick Coon Hound. He is super smart and rowdy, think i’ll need to take up exercising again, or he may eat the sofa.

A picture of the Gehard, in front of the Torteron sign in Paginges France. There are some things I miss greatly about not having a real soul-sucking job, but the pay checks sure do come in handy when paying bills. Still, there must be a better way…I’ll let you know when I find it.
