Your comments (especially, of course, the first 'bash 'em all at once--and do it with wit and style' one) were incredibly entertaining. I'm really glad you joined in the fun, even if you did keep pushing for a cheesy name. : ) <BR/><BR/>P.S.

It's great to hear that so many of you had almost as much fun as I did with this contest. I honestly cannot remember laughing this much in my entire life.<BR/><BR/>Kitchen Mage & Jeff,<BR/>How cool is it to FINALLY get the post up and hear from you only minutes later? Very cool. : )<BR/><BR/>Anna,<BR/>Thank you, and you are most welcome. And just for you, a little farm lesson. Here's how it is with sheep: a baby is a lamb. If it is a female, it grows up to be a ewe. If it is a male, it either gets to be a ram or it, well, gets turned into a wether and then dinner. And they're all sheep! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Barbara,<BR/>Sheepshank Redemption? LOL. Whitey told me to tell you that the only movie worth watching around here is CHICKEN RUN! I sure hope Parkman has a copy. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Mum,<BR/>Liselotte seems very happy with her name. And even more happy to be out of the spotlight! I felt like a member of the paparazzi chasing her around with the camera this past week.<BR/><BR/>Hi Baking Soda,<BR/>Linking and typing and laughing out loud is definitely a difficult combination. And everyone wouldn't quit leaving me hyserical comments--right down to the last few hours. It was fabulous!<BR/><BR/>We'll get people leaving you comments on <A HREF="http://bakemyday.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"><B>Bake My Day</B></A> don't worry!<BR/><BR/>Hi Liselotte,<BR/>Congratulations! You are very, very welcome. I'm just tickled that you and your family are so excited that you won. And the banner is adorable. I tried to put it up today but need another computer lesson. Soon! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Jamie,<BR/>Thanks so much. The hard work was my absolute pleasure. This contest was a riot!<BR/><BR/>Hi Geekwif,<BR/>No hard feelings that Hot Rod Mama wasn't chosen, I hope. Maybe if we get a race horse--oooh! or a dune buggy. They're very popular around here. Hmmm. Then I guess I would have to be Hot Rod Mama. Will have to think about this. . .: )<BR/><BR/>Hi Nic,<BR/>Just can't trust the post office. Somebody down there probably ate your bribe! And Liselotte the sheep is indeed very happy.<BR/><BR/>Hi Sam,<BR/>I figured your first comment meant you weren't pouting. But I don't know. . . what are those in your hand? Not <I>sour</I> grapes, I hope? *ducks as grape comes flying out of computer monitor* <BR/><BR/>The contest would definitely not have been anywhere near as much fun without you. Thanks for putting all that time and effort into it and for the <A HREF="http://becksposhnosh.blogspot.com/2005/10/meet-becks-and-posh.html" REL="nofollow"><B>nice write-up on Becks & Posh</B></A>.<BR/><BR/>And remember, you got <I>two</I> sheep. Liselotte only got one. : )<BR/><BR/>P.S. Do you think you can you get me Ivor The Engine's autograph?<BR/><BR/>Hi Annie,<BR/>That's okay if she can't quite pronounce it yet. I keep mis-spelling it! How embarrassing. : )<BR/><BR/>P.S. When we get to the 'E' names, I think there just might have to be a Ewegenie. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Clare,<BR/>Bummer. No funny comment received on this end. Thanks so much. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Shauna,<BR/>You a psychopath? Never. Poking fun at Cookiecrumb is totally normal behavior. (Isn't it?) : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Lindy,<BR/>So glad you like your chicken! She really is pretty; she's received several compliments on her good looks. Hmmm. A good layer? Well, she <I>used</I> to be. The girls seem to be on laying hiatus right now. As for her birthday, I'll have to search my records, but I do believe she was born in April of 2001. She arrived in a box at the post office along with 26 other 1-day old chicks. Talk about adorable! Wish I had baby chick pics to show you.<BR/><BR/>You are definitely right that Lindy chicken is above average. And she already is a blogstar. That's right. <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/09/daily-farm-photo-93005.html" REL="nofollow"><B>This</B></A> is her. And so is <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/09/blog-day-2005-observed.html" REL="nofollow"><B>this.</B></A> Yep, that's right. She lives with <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/10/wcb-1.html" REL="nofollow"><B>Whitey!</B></A><BR/><BR/>As far as baking cupcakes. I'm afraid that if I ever discover she has that talent, I'll have to stop blogging. Lindy chicken and I will no doubt be doing Vegas or something. Thanks for all the effort you put into the contest--and for that sandwich the other night when I really needed it. : )<BR/><BR/>P.S. Just wait til you read about what Lindy and Whitey did this summer. I'm hoping get it all written up <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/07/when-soon.html" REL="nofollow"><B>soon!</B></A><BR/><BR/>Hi Cookiecrumb,<BR/>No, you didn't win. Yes, you were mentioned high up and Shauna was the baddie and you were the goodie. For once. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Alisha,<BR/>I've been looking forward to hearing from you. I thought you might be excited about your new sheep. You are most welcome. And you are right--little Alisha is one adorable ewe. So cute you put her up as a screensaver. And thanks so much for your kind and touching words. I'll see what I can do about the goat pictures. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Jeff,<BR/>Oh, I don't think we'll be able to keep Whitey and Lindy off this blog. : )<BR/><BR/>Um, sorry about the whole doing a fantastic job thing. : )<BR/><BR/>P.S. Did anybody ever tell you you're nuts?<BR/><BR/>Hi Mathilde,<BR/>Other animals that need names? Hmmm. Just <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2005/08/wow-who-knew-and-cookies.html" REL="nofollow"><B>these two.</B></A><BR/><BR/>Hi Wendy,<BR/>Wonderful to hear from you! I was afraid you'd expired (or exploded, or whatever it was you thought you were about to do) during the interminable wait for the winner to be announced. So glad you had fun and love your sheep. Silly Wendy really is a sweetheart. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for all the effort you put into the contest. All of your comments were fabulous. I meant to put this one in there somewhere. It was so funny and clever:<BR/><BR/><B>I have this theory. I call it the Big M theory.<BR/>Im a Mother/farm girl is a midwife<BR/>I shoot them out she catches them.<BR/>I say Mmmmm yummy a lot/farm girl says Mmmmm chocolate a lot.<BR/>Farm girl has a cat named Molly/I have a kid named Mushmello.<BR/>Farm girl lives in the Middle of nowhere/I live in the Middle of Michigan.<BR/>We are kindred spirits. Cant you see all the m's.<BR/>Marzipan it was meant to be.</B><BR/><BR/>You have a truly unique mind and imagination. (And all kinds of new skills!) : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Linda,<BR/>My mom confessed to me yesterday that she'd just spent 90 minutes reading comments! They definitely are crazy (in a good way). Read them when you really need a laugh. <BR/><BR/>Hi Kitchen Mage,<BR/>Hey, are you picking on Jeff? At least he didn't say "Cash You!" : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Cara,<BR/>Oh my goodness. I <I>totally</I> forgot about your Auntie Farmgirl offer. Gosh, I can't imagine why. It couldn't have anything to do with hearing about your darling little dearest covering herself and the kitchen with nutmeg recently. . . : )<BR/><BR/>Thanks for playing everyone!Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1130097086318146262005-10-23T14:51:00.000-05:002005-10-23T14:51:00.000-05:00jeff, dude, if you want to be a sore and bitter lo...jeff, dude, if you want to be a sore and bitter loser youll have to do much better than "drat you!"

I mean, those eyes, that mouth, that bee-yoo-ti-ful curly hair...how could you not just eat her up? Alisha means "truth", a very noble name indeed. She also makes a darn fine screensaver! I am going to write a tribute to her over at my place right now!<BR/><BR/>This contest has been so much fun, Farmgirl. You are truly one of a kind.
