I'd tucked them under my arm so I could take a picture of Dolores and Dinky walking toward the front field, and Daphne sneaked over and snatched it!<BR/><BR/>Hi Anon,<BR/>Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Hi LindaSue,<BR/>Daphne is definitely a prankster. All the donkeys crack me up. People ask why we have them and I say, "They guard the sheep and entertain us!" : )<BR/><BR/>As for that New Year's rooster, yes, that was one of Whitey's chicks. And he's now about twice her size!<BR/><BR/>Hi Pille & Tim & CelticSpirit,<BR/>We do cute well around here! ; )<BR/><BR/>Hi Maryann,<BR/>Happy New Year to you, too!<BR/><BR/>Hi MNINS,<BR/>Thanks and thank you for taking the time to write. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Mike,<BR/>I did <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2007/12/farm-photo-12607-cary-baby.html" REL="nofollow"><B>raise Cary as my daughter</A></B> with lots of love, and I do in fact love all of my sheep. <BR/>But we also eat some of them--and it's the the best meat I've ever tasted. You'll find more about my philosphy regarding raising animals for meat (as well as a fantastic grilled lamb burger recipe) <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2007/11/book-review-cooking-with-shelburne.html" REL="nofollow"><B>in this post.</B></A><BR/><BR/>But not to worry, nobody will ever eat my baby Cary! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi SeattleBarb,<BR/>Welcome to the farm! Thanks for taking the time to write. It's always nice to hear from a fellow donkey lover!<BR/><BR/>Hi Herb,<BR/>Well aren't you sweet. I'm okay, it's just been kinda busy around here--the usual farm craziness plus all those trips to buy building supplies at Lowe's! And here I thought I'd start the New Year by getting back to posting a farm photo every day. I should have known better! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Susan,<BR/>Humor is what we thrive on here!<BR/><BR/>Hi Kristin,<BR/>I'm busted! What's funny is that just yesterday I was cleaning up my incredibly cluttered desk and drafting table and came across a To Do List I'd made at (get this) 3am on New Year's Day 2007 (I was already up, not still up, LOL). Sadly, it pretty much could have been written on New Year's Day 2008! But I have stopped saying "soon" as much. ; )<BR/><BR/>Hi Finny,<BR/>She is definitely a thief. And definitely cute! I know, those teeth kinda scare me, too. ; )<BR/><BR/>Hi Anne,<BR/>Great to hear from you. You are definitely not the only one who thinks donkeys are pretty--I know I do! And not just pretty, but extremely entertaining. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi JCorn,<BR/>Thanks!Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-75120429544441379372008-01-06T10:41:00.000-06:002008-01-06T10:41:00.000-06:00I love your site and the recipe for muffins you le...I love your site and the recipe for muffins you left at Gather!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-18187673765639124932008-01-04T17:33:00.000-06:002008-01-04T17:33:00.000-06:00Wow!
