IF I COULD .......

FEATHERING A NEST
"Who made her pwetty hair so ugly?" The wail escalated as my daughter raced around waving the doll accusingly in every family members face. Even the dogs and cats were facing the angry jury.

THE PROMISE
"Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark..." Birdsong waking the dawn certainly makes the quote beautifully true. It is a call to arise and face even the darkest day.

WHALES, LOERIES AND AN OTTER

HOMEGROWN MUFFINS
The excess produce of each season gets dehydrated or frozen. Of course, my goats keep us in milk so that I am able to make cream cheese every week. Peaches are dehydrated. Sweet potatoes go into cold storage.
