Busy Week

I was just thinking about how fortunate we are to have our own chickens producing fresh eggs particularly after the huge egg recall.  I am becoming more and more aware of the potential dangers of what we put into our mouths.  We have been ever so diligent in our efforts to grow our own food in the past year in an attempt to get back to basics and just knowing that what we are consuming is healthy. 

Baking bread has become a weekly ritual.  Oh, and the smell that fills the kitchen is delightful!  Yum!



I have been busy this week handcrafting new items as well as restocking at one of the Farmer's Markets that carry my products.  So busy that I have neglected our home and now it really needs a thorough cleaning (shoveling.)

Alpaca Fiber has flame resistant qualities so it seemed logical that creating hot pads, pot holders and oven mitts is just another way to utilize my fiber.
