Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats

Today, we were hoof-trimming, tail-trimming, eating peanuts, and serving copper sprinkled on peanut-butter crackers. We got about half the herd, will try to finish up tomorrow.

Mike's first tomato, he's worked hard to get it.

I was worried a cold snap would hurt the apple blossoms but the trees are loaded with maturing apples.

he's not supposed to be in the garden, but he follows Mike everywhere

Yesterday's meal at La Cucina inspired me to make this meal which turned out pretty good.  We're trying to reduce our carb intake (Mike has lost weight but no such luck for me) The stone-ground cornmeal is a complex carb, not that we could have polenta often but it is high in fiber.

This is mostly what a Sunday afternoon looks like at our house.
