Thank you for the well wishes. Im feeling a bit better than I did.
Tesco have delivered my big shop. It's huge as per pics. These items should last us 2 weeks and some 4 weeks. Sadly, I'm super excited about this challenge!
In truly sad news, we lost a chick today. She was the last one hatched and was struggling for over 24 hours so my husband, Steven, did the right thing by her. We are down to 8 chicks and our fingers are all crossed that they remain fit and healthy.
Also we have swapped a geese for another one. The lady we got them off was brilliant about it. We think we had 2 boys and a girl and now we hope we have girls and a boy!
Weekend plans are to gather lots of kindling, make lots of lovely food for family as per menu plan, catch up on boring jobs and get lots of seeds planted. Bliss!
We are Tracy & Steven and along with our 2 children we moved to the countryside in the North East of England in 2016. On our smallholding we strive for a more self reliant life by growing our own food, raising our own meat, cooking, preserving & foraging all whilst working full time.

April 22, 2024 - Week 17
Glad you are on the mend. Your weekend sounds just bliss to me....enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteAw thank you. I love every minute of it. There is always something to capture the mind, planned or unplanned!
DeleteAm late to catch up but saw the other day you needed something to help with your cold - I always have honey and lemon in hot water if I ever have a cold or sore throat, it makes me feel better in no time at all.
ReplyDeleteI know some people take Echinacea but I don't so can't comment.
Sorry to hear about the little chick :-(
Love the shopping delivery - our lounge looks like that when we get our delivery.
Thank you for this. That's great to know. I am trying to keep things as natural as possible and this is one area in life I can have a say in. I'll be sure to keep lemon in as we always have honey.
DeleteI secretly love getting a delivery. All if those ingredients to feed family and friends!
