Wordless Wednesday Dose of Cute

© FarmgirlFare.com, the very easily amused foodie farm blog where empty buckets are usually kept far out of sheep reach, but when one does end up on a head, it always cracks me up. You, too? There's another one, along with a nice Mother's day tale, here.

Animal cruelty disclaimer: The sheep in these photos (who willingly put the buckets on their heads) were not harmed during any photoshoots. This ewe you see here was happily licking molasses residues off the inside of her bucket until it was gently removed immediately after this picture was snapped.

Thursday Dose of Cute: Oh, You Big Baby

Serena and her baby girl, about three hours old on Tuesday afternoon.
