This is What Happens...

When we fill up the water container after it being empty for a half hour


And this is what happens when you think it's a good idea to put a chair by the window


Any Questions?

Catfish & potato chips...Oh My!!

We had some catfish nuggets sitting in the freezer for the longest time and decided to actually eat some of it.  I wanted to fry it, but didn't have some of the common ingredients at hand and had no desire to go out and get them.  So we improvised with potato chips.  Making an egg wash by mixing a little milk with some eggs somewhat recently laid by The Girl, I crunched up the potato chips, dipped the cat fish in the egg wash then the chips ad into the pan they went.



They came out looking quite pretty and had a nice taste to them.  The thing about catfish is that, when cooked right, they are very tender and practically melt with each bite.  And as per tradition with anytime something is fired, the leftover egg wash gets mixed with the leftover breading (potato chips) and fried up into (what my sisters would call it) Puffy Things...Yum!

Tetsu and Miyu Getting Along

The relationship between Tetsu and Miyu started off pretty bumpy.  For the first few weeks Miyu lived with us, Tetsu wanted her out.  But slowly he is starting to come around and accept her as part of the family.

Lately, Tetsu gets this desire to kind of try to swallow Miyu's muzzle, without really making contact.  It usually happens when he is excited or in a good mood, and doesn't end negatively.  Also in this video is Tetsu's first attempt at playing with Miyu in the house, his elbow biting around 00:12.  He has wrestled and played with her at the dog park and outside, and it makes me excited that he is starting to do so at home.

With the coming of Spring comes new surprises

The weather is starting to warm, the sun lasts longer, and the chickens are enjoying it.  Today as I was giving them some greens, one of the Eater Eggers left me a nice gift.


It may be hard to tell, but the egg is a nice pastel green color.  Here's to hoping that they leave me some more good surprises this week.
