So much to be thankful for. . .
Yeah, but where's the pie?

© FarmgirlFare.com, the thankful foodie farm blog where everyone on the farm ate very well today, despite the fact that nobody got any pie, though one of us is about to enjoy some sweet and garlicky roasted San Marzano tomatoes that just came out of the oven—along with a celebratory glass of champagne of course. What? Nobody else roasts tomatoes from the garden in late November? Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! Yes, it does look as if the farm kids are demanding pie.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, and..
ReplyDeleteI am curious to know what the pink mark on that one sheep's back is...
Happy late Thanksgiving to you, Susan. I would totally roast some tomatoes. If I had them.
ReplyDeletei hope the roasted tomatoes and celebratory glass of champagne was to mark the completion of your cookbook?? on the shelves in time for Christmas? :) am i right?
ReplyDeleteI know I'm late, but I wanted to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you had a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteHello there farm girl,
ReplyDeleteI love reading your blogs and admire your bravery to change your life and live it. I love seeing the delicious foods and life on the farm. I was wondering if I could follow your blog, but I see that there is no follow button located on your page. Forgive me, but I am farely new to Blog spot and not aware of all the correct steps.
Happy Thanksgiving Susan (if a bit belated)! Thanks for posting about your country life, it is always refreshing for me to visit here.
ReplyDeleteHi Everybody,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the nice comments and Thanksgiving wishes.
Hi Windchimes,
That definitely needs to be near the top of my Frequently Asked Farmgirl Questions page - if I ever get one written. ; )
The colored marks on the backs of the sheep are made from marking crayons that we use while working the sheep (trimming hooves, worming, etc.). You cram the sheep together in a tight space so they're easier to catch up, and then after you work each one you mark them with the crayon so you know which ones you've already done. A full flock of marked backs is a beautiful sight indeed! : )
Hi reneshay,
Thanks for the cookbook enthusiasm. Unfortunately that project isn't happening - you can read a little bit more about what happened here. The champagne was more a general celebration of Thanksgiving, having made some fabulous roasted tomatoes, being alive - you know, the usual. I don't need much of an excuse to pop open a bottle of champagne! :)
