© Copyright 2008 FarmgirlFare.com, the award-winning blog where as soon as the Four Hour Parisian Daily Baguettes are finished baking (they smell so good!) I'm headed back out to help pick up bales - then we'll be out of the hay and hopefully I'll have time to share a bunch of tasty new recipes that have been piling up, including three simple and refreshing vegetable salads, my new favorite orange loaf cake, and the easiest white bean appetizer spread ever.

  1. Hi Susan,

    I just moved to central MO from the Houston (not the one in Missouri) area. I'm really looking forward to those new recipes. We've only been here a week and I'm still adjusting to not having every ingredient I can imagine at the grocery. We're renting in town while we're building our house in the country, but we started a container garden today.

    A woman at the Lowe's store, only 20 miles away, laughed when I told her we just moved here and asked "why?".

  2. We live in Maine and won't be able to cut hay till July! We have had rainy days with little sun. It is so beautiful seeing the hay cut and baled. Thanks for the photo. I have been reading your blog about moving to MO. Thanks again.

  3. well Yummy sounding recipes coming down the pike. It DOES seem like you were just haying but popular knowledge is the first thing to go is your memory and I don't recall the second (said the old gal). Love seeing Lucky Buddy Bear out there supervising the haying - a good dog's job is NEVER done

  5. Susan, I love how it all looks so pastoral and peaceful. Good thing you can't see the humidity, huh? (or ticks, chiggers, armadillos...)

    lisadelrio, From my conversations with Susan (see above), I'm guessing "why?" is a valid question. slyGrin

    oh yeah, nice tags... ;-)

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!
