Feeding the blue jays

I bought this spring peanut feeder just for my blue jays. Too bad they have not taken to it, even after months of it hanging on the porch.

So I adapt and put the peanuts out where they want to eat.

Maybe they will discover the hanging spring peanut feeder eventually.

I always thought blue jays were smart birds. They have proved me wrong.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Tractor Supply chirps

Walk into the store and you’ll immediately hear them. The chicks and ducklings are for sale.

Just hearing their chirps made my day.

I stopped at Tractor Supply because I needed wild-bird seed and suet blocks. Also, I wanted a 50-pound bag of chicken layer crumbles. Of course, I couldn’t lift the large bag after my operation. That problem was easily solved. All I had to do was ask and the clerk got the bag, checked me out, and delivered everything to my car.

Too bad I couldn’t bring a few chicks home. Just taking care of my 3 hens is enough trouble for me these days.

Food update

After having my post-operative appointment today I was given the go-ahead to add soft food to my diet.

Happy day! But I must take my time, chew a lot, and not eat too much at once. More tiny meals ahead of me

Celebrating today!

Cookie time

When the weather is wicked, I have to bake. Today it was chocolate chip cookies.

I like my cookies to spread out so I used Elton Brown’s recipe, but made cookies half the size he says so I get double the cookies.

Enjoy.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm

Stir fry supper

Frozen veggies went into the pan for my stir fry. I think I should have used a larger pan, but it all cooked up even in this pan.Lots of veggies, but no onions so I chopped up some from my cupboard.

I added some cooked shrimp and put it all over brown rice.

A perfect combination for my supper.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.
