Frigid Time for Farmers and their Feathered Friends!

It was a chilly week for everyone! 
Everyone made it through and only a few eggs were lost to being frozen solid, or at least I ate them after they thawed ;). Hella stayed huddled up in her blanket pile on the couch while I fed the woodstove and turned on the other heaters too.

It was a good excuse to tidy up inside, organize the seed starting area, and chop more firewood!

And remember, every day gets us closer to fresh grass, leafy trees, and flowers! Oh how I miss flowers!!!

There are some dried flowers left if you really need a flower fix and, of course, there are eggs and microgreens available online to order or email me to reserve them for you!

When it's well below zero the frost starts to move inside!

It makes for great icicles too!
The eerie red glow from the coops means the hens are warm and toasty!

The seed starting area is starting to fill up, so I brought the other shelving unit up to get ready for more seed flats that need a space and some light. It is a few weeks before I feel confident in the greenhouse dome's heater so for now they get their special space in the attic!
​The last bigger inside project is done! It was an epoxy float coat, like a bar top, for my wooden bathroom counter with a live edge also filled with glitter!!! 
The best way to enjoy glitter as an adult is to encase it in epoxy!

I finally took the time for a quick jog/hike along the Kootenai and in true Montana fashion it was beautiful even in winter! Also saw an Eagle try for a Great Blue Heron. It got away but probably not without a few scratches!

Hella loves the hand soap I currently have so every time I wash my hands she wants to lick it 'clean' for me!
