#100HappyDays of blessings

May 3, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 7 Comments

I started #100happydays back in January and, a week in, I wrote a blog post because I was struggling with what made me happy. Back then, some lovely people commented on the post and they really made me think differently about the challenge. #100happydays was not about big gestures. For me, it was about the little things … [Read more…]

Definately a farmer’s daughter at the playground

May 3, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 6 Comments

So this week we visited our local garden centre to have lunch for my mum’s birthday. Boo and I were early so we headed to the outdoor play area. There were climbing frames galore and lots of ride-on toys to choose from. Ever the farmer’s daughter though, Boo went straight for the tractor. She loves … [Read more…]

I’m going to #BlogOnMosi and this is all about me…

April 27, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

Well it is all very exciting at the farm this week. For once, it is not about the animals or our escapades. Next Sunday-4th May, I will be leaving the farm for the day. That’s right-a whole day away. I am attending my first, ever, blogger conference which will be hosted at the Museum of Science and … [Read more…]

A sad day on the farm

April 24, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

It’s been a sad old day on the farm. I’m afraid nasty Mr Fox has paid us a visit again. He obviously did not heed my last letter to him. As regular readers of my blog will know, our five bantam chickens would not go in the coop. It was amusing how they perched in … [Read more…]

Poverty-it could happen to any of us- just ask Jack

April 23, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 23 Comments

There is one area of life I think we can all agree on. We all spend too much money on food. Is it the supermarket’s fault? I’m not sure but there is just so much choice out there that it is so easy to stray off your shopping list a little and end up going … [Read more…]

Run rabbit run…

April 12, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 7 Comments

We don’t need much of an excuse around here to get hopping mad and I’m not talking about being angry. It is almost Easter. I’ve always loved rabbits. When I was at university myself and my house-mate used to dream of having a bunny village and, when we moved to the farm, I started establishing … [Read more…]

Strange chicken behaviour leads to a surprising discovery…

April 8, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 2 Comments

The say you should never work with children or animal but, as the name of my blog kind of gives it away, I work (and live) with both on a daily basis. Both Boo and the animals do funny things on a daily basis. Like Clover the rabbit who mysteriously escaped from the hutch without … [Read more…]

Growing Our Own-first beginnings…

April 6, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

Do you remember my last gardening post where I was impatient to grow my own? It was way back in February and two months on, it is amazing how things have changed. Not wanting to bore you when every little shoot that came up (I did do a little dance in the kitchen), I waited until … [Read more…]

Our beloved Minty is 1

April 5, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

I feel a little guilty. In the excitement last weekend of the new lambs, I forgot an important birthday. March 31st was Minty’s birthday. Minty is our pet lamb from last year. From the moment that four-legged-love entered our world, Boo and I loved him. He was so tiny and we didn’t think he would make … [Read more…]

Word of the Week: Lambs

April 4, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 12 Comments

      My word of the week for this week is How could it not be? From the moment the first one was born last Saturday morning, it’s been a whirlwind at the farm. Hubster has been out at all hours day and night. We’ve only got one pet lamb (that we have to … [Read more…]
