What A Man!

Peter Parker, our champion (of cuteness) Rooster looking adorable in the light dusting of snow we got last night.

And speaking of cuteness, I had that little guy home with me all day. He's got a cold, and is coughing too much to be in class, a day of rest is needed, maybe two. So I'll be chillin' around the homestead doing this that and the other...instead of going on a conventional walk.
As
Hive account@eddiebowes was waiting for the bus, he noticed a car "parked" in the ditch across the street.

He came into the house to tell us. It almost looks like he intentionally parked there. The roads were very icy though from a bit of rain and snow, and the snow melted and then it froze again. It's slick out!
Soon after the police (the one police car we have out here) showed up.


A dude in a big truck shows up to get the car out. I'm being such a creeper, I know, I know...



It's limping out of there now...


The damage doesn't look that bad.

On the flatbed and off they go. There's my excitement for the year out here :)
Making Buns
If you want my Gramma Anne's bun recipe click HERE

My dough is ready, I just leave it until it has doubled. I love that I have a window where I can watch the chickens as I'm kneading my dough. Now that it's winter the crows are always here. They don't come over in the summer, in the winter they're here every day eating with the chickens...

Every morning I throw the chickens some scratch, it's so nice that they share. Maybe they think the crows are one of them because so many of our chickens are black.

Can you tell the chickens from the crows? If you're on a phone you may not be able to.

Dough is Doubled

Just gotta form the buns, let them rise again, and we'll be chowing em down in no time.

Coffee Time
We make it the semi-old fashioned way, don't use a machine.


Boil up the water.

Grind beans and put a fuck tonne of that ground goodness into a coffee filter.

Add the water after it's boiled, it's important to let the water fall from boiling temperature for a bit before pouring onto the grounds or you may fuck your coffee up and give it a bitter taste.

Ahhhhhhh...it smells and looks soooooooooo good!
Let's Go See Some Chickens

Dark Flame...oooooh she helped me find one of the secret egg nests yesterday! In the morning when I let them out she screwed up by letting me see her run off making her egg laying sound, so I followed her over to a pile of poly that is by the big greenhouse. They were tunnelling in there, I found a stash of 12.
One of you suggested that I leave an egg in the little outside adventure nests that they make, to keep them at least going to the same spot so I don't have to go on Easter Egg hunts anymore. So that's what I've been doing with the other two secret nests, I drew on some eggs with sharpie (so I don't accidentally pick the frozen decoy egg when I'm collecting) and left them in the girls' "secret" spots.
Sure enough a few of the girls are still going back there! I think I can get this situation under wraps here, and only have to search 3 nest spots a day outside, instead of roaming the whole property to trying to find the hidden eggs.

Filled the Eggpron Today!
That's what happens when you find all the secret nests I guess :)



Thank you for coming on another #WalkWithMe, I hope you enjoyed today's shots! I'd like to go on a walk where you live too, so if you get out there for one, take a few pics, and post about your walk using the tag "walkwithme". I'll check the tag regularly to upvote and give encouragement. Let's earn Steem by getting fresh air and fitness together!
Here are a few of the latest walks by fellow Steemians who got out there in the world, and took us with them!
See life through their eyes.
