New Toys...

Well, March is trundling along. So far it has been a much better month then March last year. I have a new toy (see that cool microscope) loaned to me by friend and microbiologist Rick Meek. This cool looking machine is the real deal. I wanted it to do fecal egg counts on the goats (yes, I said fecal...want to make sure my worming program is working). I've been having fun looking at blood, skin scrapings and anything else I can find to view. It's lots of fun! Morgyn got some stickers and Easter goodies in the mail from Trinity and Nee'Nee' bought her a new shovel which she is putting to good use in the mud and snow. Yes, we've gotten more snow in the last week, 3" on two different mornings-Yuck!

I'm going to post a picture of a new recipe above. I'm 6 weeks into my diet and having to get creative. I made THE BEST chilli Relleno-If you want the recipe, email me! And yes I made a cake for my friend Patina..her birthday is today. Got my favorite rainbow chip frosting and it was fun to bake even if I can't eat it! I will admit to putting a glob of frosting on my tongue and rolling it around before spitting it out!-*snort* just wanted a tiny bit of flavor :-) Actually I was pretty impressed with my self control..didn't even lick any batter (my favorite!!!)
