It seems that our TomTom is a real party animal! I think he had a bit too much tequila last night as he was ringing in the New Year.....

Night and Day

We are checking in from beneath a mountain of snowy flour. Yes, we have been baking up a storm, cooking soups, lasagna, etc. and getting food into the freezer for the upcoming holiday season. Being able to visit with overnight guests without the pressure of all of the holiday cooking will be a luxury this year. All it takes is a little early preparation and lots of freezer storage! We've been enjoying a week of beautiful sunshine and daily highs in the 40's. Hunting season is over and we are back in the woods once again. Oh, how I missed those walks! And so did the dogs! The puddles left from Sunday's rain are beginning to disappear - finally. We had a few very soggy days here! I snapped a few photos the other evening while the dogs and I were outside for the final feeding. Winter evenings are so peaceful... especially this week with no bright moon to light up the sky. I am sometimes asked if I am scared outside in the night by myself. I actually love the night

Just In Case....

We've had an unusual week around here following the snowstorm. We had a day without power and several days without internet. In case you missed it, I was able to post some of our winter wonderland photos from the snow, yesterday, in a short blog post (courtesy of our neighbor's satellite internet). We are once again back online and I wanted to let you know that I am going to take the next week off from blogging - a winter break, but we will be back the following week with photos and stories of February's close. You might, however, see us from time to time on Instagram (@beehavenacres) As you can see... the snow had Forrest jumping for joy! We had quite a lot of fun playing with snowballs! If you ask, I think Forrest will tell you that Winter is his most favorite month!! I am hoping that the coming week is the perfect ending to February for you. March is just around the corner - and that means the start of gardening season. I'll be working hard to get the greenhous

A Different Kind of Busy

Although it might feel like the busiest time of year, it isn't really. We have much more to do in the spring and early summer than in the winter. Life around the farm slows down considerably this time of year. It does so for a purpose and I am all for slowing down with it. Our weekend was a cloudy, dreary one with rain on Sunday. It would have been the perfect weekend to sit in front of a fire with a book, or some knitting. Four little cheeseburgers, all in a row However, this time of year becomes busy in a different way. It's a concentrated time of connecting with loved ones and friends - taking us off of the farm more than usual. I spent the bulk of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday away from the farm. With Jack staying home to tend to dogs and farm chores, I met a couple of dear friends on Friday for lunch and a concert at the Milton Hershey School. The concert was put on by the high schoolers in their beautiful Founder's Hall. If Milton Hershey were alive to se
