Digging Out

Mother Nature most definitely did not cooperate. In fact she pretty much thumbed her nose at me. I did not make it to class.

I don’t know why, but chickens in snow fascinate me. Maybe because it just doesn’t seem natural. Or because the contrast brings out their colors.

The chickens were so happy with the treats I brought them today – spaghetti, brown rice, wilted lettuce, and a soft tomato. Notice the cats hanging out in the chicken coop.

There will be no longing gazes at my garden today because I can’t see it for the snow. But tomorrow I’m going to start some seeds in the basement, yay! Happy Saturday, everyone!
