I was outside doing some planting for the tortoise and watering the chickens when i noticed the peach tree looking pretty. Picked a few and there are so many more not quite ready yet. This year will be our best harvest year so far

I have several pages on facebook and have a hard time keeping up with them all so I will be combining pages and removing a few of them. This is one I will be deleting.
I have a page I started a while back that is more fitting for what Im wanting to post about which is recipes, farming, gardening and basically whats going on here on the ol homestead. If any of you are at all interested then here is the link to the page I will be keeping. I hope to see you all over there.

Guess I can still say Good Morning. Its not quite noon here in Texas.
As most of you know, we have had a pretty crappy week. We have lost 2 of our loved pets and had a few others in the vet. I saw a vet 4 times in 5 days time. Not one the same and all for something different. Its friday and I hope our bad week is now over.
In order to distract myself today I am going to try my hand at making Mexican food from scratch 😮. I love baking and most if not all of the things I bake are all from scratch. Rarely from a box but cooking? UGH I hate cooking, I have no idea why but I just have no enthusiasm when it comes to dinner.
I have decided to try and change that. So tonight Im going all out and going to make homemade mexican rice, chicken tacos, homemade tortillas and guacamole. My rule is if I dont eat it, I dont make it. Sorry Guacamole is gross but Tom loves it so I will make it for him lol. Poor guy. Im not quite ready to tackle refiried beans so yeah, Its can beans tonight.
So wish me luck and if all turns out well I will be posting the recipes for you guys to try.
Hope everyone has a great Friday

I am so broken this morning. Tom woke me up to tell me that our beloved Thor was attacked last night.
He was the sweetest most gentle boy. He loved our chickens and roosted with them. He would always make me laugh when I would call his name and he would come running. He would greet you with a series of gobbles anytime you went outside. And he loved my pancakes.
Its just not going to be the same around here. There is no other in the world like him. He was a big goofy dog that gobbled. RIP Thor ❤

Who are we?

Just a husband and wife team located in a small town called Rhome, Tx. We live on 2.5 acres of land and are owned by 2 miniature horses, a whole lot of chickens, a couple sulcata tortoise, bearded dragons, lionhead bunnies and lets not forget the spoiled pugs.
On this page I will share the happenings on the farmstead, care and tip on our animals, tips and info on gardening, recipes and anything else I think might be of interest to you.
Hope you enjoy following along with our page. We’re happy to have you!
