Currently drinking: Coffee, but it's been compromised...
Item One:
I know better than to eat a banana first thing in the morning. It absolutely RUINS a perfectly good cup of coffee. What is it about bananas that make each sip taste like burnt popcorn and beef jerky? Still, I accidentally enact this wretched taste bomb about three times a month.
Item Two:
In the winter months, we give the members of our homestead warm water to begin their day. Frequently, I look out the back door and see Oats, standing in her water container, eyes slightly closed, enjoying her heated foot bath. You just gotta love a chicken smart enough to do this. We have two 'feral' hens in our flock, Oats and Acorn- initially added to give the other hens a break from the young, overly-eager rooster because they could outrun, outfly, and out roost him; but were just too pretty to ignore. Junior had no finesse when it came to the ladies, especially compared to the sleek and suave alpha rooster, Kellogg. Kellogg simply oozes confidence and social grace. Thankfully, Junior has learned that all women appreciate a considerate boyfriend and finally has a little family of his own…. and even makes sure that the kids never disturb Oats when she is enjoying a little 'me time' bucket bath.
Item Three:
Joshua and Jason Nunnelly are officially The Coffee Shop Pontiffs. They recorded their first podcast yesterday at Berkley Bob's (Cullman's best local coffee house) with me as acting producer. My sides are still sore from laughing. I started working on the content this morning, giving my ribs a chance to really work out. Good stuff. Be looking for it!
