Just doin'

I am canning and dehydrating this morning. And have already told you about how to do those things.



So I really can't think what to tell you.

Yesterday I was watching a new program called Headbanger's Kitchen. (there is cussing in it) I am really enjoying it. On the side bar it had suggested video's. The Heavy Metal Farmer got my attention. It is an older video so many have already seen it. (both on youtube)

I came to the conclusion that maybe this blog could use a theme song. Will have to ask some of my musician friends for a nice Death Metal Homesteader theme song.

It is finally a nice day out today. This means garden work, mainly. Every two weeks, until the end of this month, I plant cooler veggies. And then plant them again in August for a fall crop.

Corn will be planted every two weeks from now until the end of June, for a rotating crop and not being overwhelmed with the amount of harvest coming in at one time.

Husband has started berming the house.

We had our first severe storm of the season, with nickel size hail and microburts.


First storm of 2011

We also got ourselves a pig. I think it is an American Yorkshire.

P4030031

Currently she is in a temp cage. And we are in process of building a tractor pen for her. I will let you know about that once it is finished. I tried looking up information for the pen, but only found a couple of pictures. Looks like this method of hog rearing isn't a popular one. But as we have no intentions of constantly retaining pigs, a tractor will work for us, and give the land a break between pigs.

Bob Dole Chasing the Ladies

I finally did it! I just happened to look out and see Bob Dole Chasing the cows (a lady and a bull). And no, not the Senator from Kansas. Bob Dole is the name the boys gave to our ram.

Sorry that the video isn't the greatest, not only am I still learning this new camera, but if I get too close, he stops.
