Week in review

I'm pretty good at following instructions. We ate it. Promptly. 

Raw cow's milk camembert. Beautiful rind. Beautiful smell. So far, so good...

Beautiful center. Yay!!! You can see it aging from the outside in, softening gradually. Sweet, mild, perfect with fruit. Now to tackle it with goats milk. . . 

We ate camembert. We ate caerphilly. We ate apples. And berries. And nuts. 

And grapes. And prosecco. And slept. 

The spring-like weekend reprieve was enjoyed by all. Kaelyn played monkey-in -the- middle for a while, then she remembered she is nearly 11 and stopped in the middle and swung her head from left to right.

As it does every year, early spring brings plenty of mud, which does not provide good traction  for  a trailer loaded with  2+ tons of hay. 

Boys and their toys. Keep trying and trying, mud is flying everywhere. The result was a discussion to widen the barn driveway and add a turn-around. 

Mama? A single doe kid visits with Kaelyn before moving out to the barn.

I inadvertently left Tinder out of my last post. She is fine, coming up on her fourth birthday which marks her second year with us. She tolerates company a little better now but still stays close to me, smothering me.

May and Mona Lisa propped up on each other soaking up rays. They are struggling through the last few days of pregnancy, Mona Lisa may get induced soon, her feet are swelling a bit which is much less forgiving in hooves than it is to human feet!

It's not over yet, the blue skies and warmth can be deceiving. The next burst of winter misery is lingering nearby. This weekend will end our kidding season, then we start focusing on hay and garden prep work. The fun just never ends around here!
