Remember those adorable chicks I introduced y’all to last month? Well they have been growing like crazy and were REALLY ready to bust out of their little crate alongside their mother. So I let them out to explore the world they hatched into and while doing so discovered something. Baby chickens are the most difficult thing…
Yes. I know I should have posted this a month ago. But it was either now or wait until next April. Or I guess I could have waited until October and shocked your eyeballs with a blast of purple. Then again the rapture may happen this summer and you would never see the glory that was…
Piglet, Winnie-The-Pooh’s best friend, paddles furiously to a tune that goes something like this “And the rain, rain, rain came down, down, down and Piglet started bailing!
