Pork heart--one of my favorite organ meats. We usually put it in the Dutch oven with salt, pepper, and a little broth.

It is highly nutritious and an excellent source of protein, essential B-vitamins, and CoQ10. But it is also high in cholesterol so that's something to be aware of if you're on a strict diet.

How do you cook yours? I'm looking for other ideas/recipes but since I can't post in groups I'm relying on y'all for more suggestions. Thanks!

Phoebe is back 😊 She's an Eastern Phoebe actually so that's how I came up with her name. I'm original like that.

Early Spring, she rebuilt the barn swallow nest and hatched a set of eggs. She and her brood left and then the barn swallows came and laid their eggs. Those babies are now all out and about doing their thing. Phoebe is now laying her second set of eggs this year (they lay twice).

It's been pretty amazing watching this corner of the porch go through it's cycle. And I enjoy having Phoebe around. She's a friendly little bird and when not tending her nest, she's typically on a tree nearby watching me or flitting around me while doing chores.

I remember when I was filling out my DNR at 41 and listing the daughter who would be responsible for carrying that out. My attorney said "Oh yes, definitely don't pick the one that loves you the most." I sat up straight, looked directly at him, and said "Excuse me? It takes even greater love to let someone go."

Without a doubt, I know that both of my daughters love me. But I picked the one who I felt would be the strongest to handle the grief process afterwards. I'm not saying my other daughter is weak. Rather, I am saying that I picked the one who would be able to walk through life carrying that weight in addition to the grief.

Because it is a weight. A lifelong weight.

A lot of you are seeing this because of a calf. By no means am I saying that letting an animal go is exactly the same as letting a human go. But I am saying that letting something go takes great love and kindness. I am also not saying that animals should be treated as humans, but I am saying that they should be treated humanely.

The looks I get when I talk about feather wreaths. At least I keep it real with them, right? I have several April hatched cockerels that are available if anyone is looking.

In an effort not to seem totally useless, this silly dog is finding whole tree branches wherever she can. 🤦 Now, if I could just teach her to lay them by the barn.

Huey is going to be super confused if this clutch of guinea eggs that she's claimed actually hatches.

Reason 5062 why I can't Internet today. If I was off this afternoon, I would go get him and end it. This is wrong. Local followers--not sure if any of y'all has the time today to do what should have been done a long time ago.

Oklahoma did Oklahoma things last night. Thank you to everyone who reached out to check on us. Thank you to our volunteer fire departments that got the lightning strike fire out that was north of us. Thank you to the linemen who kept the power going. We have some broken tree branches but there doesn't seem to be more than that. We did get .6" out of the deal.

📷This morning. The wind is still and the birds are singing.
