© Copyright 2009 FarmgirlFare.com, the foodie farm blog where Donkey Doodle Dandy (who is all fluffed up for winter—so cute!) loves his herd and we don't think he regrets for a minute not being lone donkey on the farm anymore, but sometimes he likes to put a little space between himself and all those girls. (And in case you're wondering, that baling twine wrapped around the top of the gate was a vain attempt at keeping Marta—who is gigantic and yet can still magically get through anything—from climbing through it. A long overdue big white dogs update is hopefully coming soon.)

  1. Thank God you post pictures like this, Susan, and then point out things like the baling-twine fix. It makes me feel not so bad about the "temporary" cinder blocks on one side of the chicken coop that have been there since we built the thing, and honestly? Will probably never be replaced with anything classier, because they work.

    Junk farming at its finest.

  3. Very cute! I love the donkey updates, as well as the cats, dogs...well everything.
    umh.....what happened to the our beloved "award winning blog..."? I noticed the subtle change and think back to last years discussion. I guess change is good (sigh). Happy New Year!!

  4. I get it now (having checked the last couple of weeks entries very carefully) ~ you changed it at the new year. hmmmm
    I wonder if you could answer a question....you mention donkeys guarding sheep (as in Dinky recently - a heart rendering entry I must say) do they really do this? and what do they guard from? surely not coyotes? or do they just bond with the sheep and become the dominant group member? An extended family maybe?

  5. Love it - the donkey crowd seems to be getting along well. I'd think it would always seem like a bit of a "hold your breath" when a new animal(s) is introduced to the others.... glad the new farm-mates are enjoying it. And lol on Marta the escape artist :-)

  6. You've got me singing that song now - let's get together yeah yeah yeah we'll have a real good time - wasn't that in the old Hayley Mills version of Parent Trap? Handsome DoubleDDan and his band of renown. Birthing yet at your place? I'm in countdown mode for the goatzees - full moon I thought would surely bring something on!

  7. I noticed that "award winning blog" was missing too...you'll always be award-winning to your legion of fans!

    Love the donkey pix - you really make me want a donkey - which won't work in suburbia! I'm still 'farming' vicariously through you! Thanks so much for such a wonderful blog site.

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!
