Lady Charlotte alive and well

I can’t believe that our Lady Charlotte who was a half (or more) dead turkey hen last week is now up on her own and eating us out of house and home.  She is chowing down on anything I give her.  I am amazed and in awe!!!!

All of her wounds are healing and looking pretty scabby.  The best part is that she is getting up on her own and walking.  Tomorrow, Rick is going to take her out to the barn and let her scratch through some hay and get some exercise.  If she seems to be okay, she might stay, but if not, she can come back inside at least for the colder night hours.  I might have to make her a jacket if she stays out all night.

Now that Rick doesn’t have her on his lap each night, maybe there will be room for me…NOT!!!!

I made the best bread today.  It had a lot of whole wheat so took a long time to raise.  That and my kitchen stays so cold this time of year.  It was so yummy.  I made some honey butter and it was hard to behave myself and only eat one biscuit.  I sure love my grain mill.  It’s noisy, but gets the job done.  I need to try making some crackers next.

Hope all is well with you….Have a great day.
