Hi - I have been really busy here at feed me farms with the heirloom garden, several orphaned bottle fed calves, new chickens & Guineas and a newborn miniature donkey. Check out my blog for great recipes, food history and barnyard antics http://www.feedmefarms.com/

Thanks for adding me, fellow Texan!

No hail here... the storms keep inexplicably missing our yard. So we didn't get much rain either! But yes, if it does hail the trees help a lot. They've also helped on these windy days. Too bad they block out so much sun too!

Azores ,

Island of Pico ...

When I was a kid growing up there was always Linguisa and Chaurice ( Chauricco ) in the freezer ... I made omlettes all the time ... best Pizza topping ever as well ... I feel kinda ' bad that I don't know but 4 words in Portuguese, Linguisa , Chaurice , Chorrico & Quavish. ... of course those are the MOST IMPORTANT words !

My Neice went on a Mission for the Church in Brazil and obviously had to learn how to speak Portuguese and some local Spanish combo languages out in the jungles etc ...

Mexican Chorizo can be pretty nasty actually ... the spices are similar to the real deal , so as a "flavoring" it can work in a pinch.

Great growing now the storms are over. Hopefully Texas will live up to it s reputation as best place on Earth, or anywhere else.

I will invite you now! We would really like to have you as "one of us"

I Love your signature quote! Did you write that?

Thanks for the message and encouragement. Sorry it took so long to post back but i didn't notice the little message icon. Still ne to this forum stuff but learning alot! What are you dreaming to grow in TX? What do you actually have success with? How big is you garden? Too bad we aren't a little closer, we could compare successes. Keep in touch!

thanks and best wishes
the Barking Cat Farm CSA has a two year waiting list, so I am still waiting
(btw, their weekly update is very interesting, if you'd like a model to follow)
BCF is in Heath, outside Rockwall.
The Dallas area is not flush in CSAs, the next closest one for produce is in Denton and you have to go there to pick it up...that's almost a 100 mile round trip from Plano where I live - not too earth friendly.

good luck
