Well the sun is shining but the wind is blowing a hooley so quite cold and certainly not putting polythene on the polytunnel weather and looking at the forecast not for anytime soon, sorry if I'm sounding like a broken record.
Wholemeal seeded loaves made and one in the freezer as only me that eats it. Last night I made cottage pie and chilli so that was last night's teas and left overs for tomorrow. Beef stew is simmering for tonight with breaded chicken for Eldest. I made oatmeal biscuits last night for Eldest to take with her today to the sailing club, fingers crossed it has gone well for her today.
So that's the cooking covered over the weekend, I have started planning our meals for the week on Sundays it makes shopping a lot easier and decision making easier.
We got all five chicken houses cleaned out, disinfected and moved onto fresh grass yesterday so happy chickens. The ponies only had to cone in this morning to eat their breakfasts and give us time to poo pick the paddocks. The boys will move to their new paddock next weekend it has some growth on it so they will be happier with Eldest looking after them as we go up country to the Great Nephew's christening.
Well that will have to be all got to go and see to the animals again.
Take care all!
Putting plastic on poly tunnels brings back lots of happy memories (not!) needs as many people as possible and a hot sunny windless day - and hot spot tape!
ReplyDeleteI reckon we must have done the job 5 or 6 times over our years at the smallholding. Good Luck
We certainly need good luck, having a windless day on the plot is just not happening.
