I’ve seen a few bloggers having a go at this so I thought I would have a go. This is the A-Z of me. It’s not a comprehensive list but a little snapshot. A is for animals. I have always loved them. We have LOADS. Cows, sheep, dogs, chickens, cats, rabbits and a fish. B…

When I was growing up I loved musical theatre. The songs, the stories, the stars. To be honest I had forgotten just how much I loved it until the lovely people at PPR Publicity sent me a copy of The Ultimate Musicals Experience on CD. Now we’ve all bought compilation albums and despaired when we’ve…
So last night, a new programme was aired on BBC One called Nigel and Adam’s Farm Kitchen. I am married to a farmer and we live on a farm so I watched it with interest. At one point in the first episode, there was a statistic that many people don’t bother cooking a Sunday dinner….
Historically, I have always got dates and times wrong. I could blame it on being a busy mum but I’m afraid it started long before having Boo. The worst event happened when I bought my husband and I tickets to see Take That. We weren’t married then and long before Boo. It was just before…
After my last pet buying post, I thought writing it down on my blog (http://farmerswifeandmummy.wordpress.com/2013/09/29/impulsive-pet-buying-again/) may have cured me. Wrong. It didn’t. I decided Clover the rabbit (named after the rabbit in Sophia the First) needed a friend. After days of researching on local pet shops and sites, I plumped for a two-year-old lop…
I don’t know about you but when it comes to Christmas, I’m all enthusiasm and effort with little success. Nothing seems to go the way I has thought about it in my head (it’s a minefield in Emma’s world, I’m telling you). My tree ends up with lights at one side and not the other. I have…
I have had to admit something to myself this week and it hurt. Fashion wellies do not mix with farms. We have lived at the farm for just over a year now and in that time I have been through four pairs of the fashionable type. Oh they were lovely. Pink glitter, polka dot, even…
Who am I? Who are any of us? Have you ever sat down and thought about identity? How you identify yourself or how others identify you. Identity is more than a name and just think, to many people you have an identity without even having a name. From the people you see every day on…
I don’t know if it is a gift. I am sure my husband would say it is a weakness. I can’t help falling for animals. Yes we live on a farm and despite once being vegetarian, I do accept that the business we are in is killing for food and I accept that. It puts…
