The End of March

Started this morning helping Leon get the sprayer loaded. He got a couple of fields finished before the wind came up.

I made a batch of roll dough to make bierocks. I cooked the filling last night. I use my grandma's recipe but substitute freshly ground white wheat flour for part of the flour. The girls love to run the hand-cranked grain mill. I ordered an electric motor for it, but they are back-ordered for now.

I made some pastry puffs last night. Amanda told me about a recipe on the Martha Stewart website that I tried. They are so easy! I may make another batch and keep some in the freezer for a quick dessert or appetizer.

Leon went to go get our new bull. Before he could go, we had to go get the other pickup, come back for the trailer, change a tire, air up the other tires...

The girls went through some clothes of Amanda's and Lorena's. They were excited to discover a whole new wardrobe. :)

A New Blog

I decided to start a new blog. I have been inspired by others who write faithfully on their blogs and I want to try to do the same. This is also a place I can keep my thoughts and keep track of things that go on here in our part of the world. Thanks for stopping by!
