  1. Well, yes, you're right. That IS the cutest thing I've ever seen. What a sweet thing that Bear is. And also a very hard worker.

    Tell him not to forget to get behind the ears.

  2. Lucky Buddy Bear is my favorite "person" on your blog. He's such a good nurse. I wish we could borrow him for a little while so he could teach our collies how to care for our sheep. All they ever want to do is play with the lambs--not very useful.

  12. Reminds me of Peanut and "her" babies this winter. But she was cleaning poopy bottoms and messy faces - I doubt if she'd want to dry them when they are grown! He is a sweet dog - you are so lucky to have him and he is so lucky to have you!

  13. Bear is a total prince - animals just never cease to amaze me. When I don't feel well, my shih tzu jumps to the top of the couch like a cat and actually pats me on the shoulder. How you got that shot of bear is amazing!!! I love it.

  14. In my opinion you are a very gifted and talented writer. You start to screen your thoughts, decide not to, and write about how you were going to.

    I don't know how you find the time to write so much with all the work that you do.

    I'm touched by your stories. You are truly amazing; and I wish I could pitch in and help you with your work and repairs.

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!

Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.

I look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy your e-visits to our farm!
