About me:
My name is Rhonda. I am blessed to live in a beautiful place out in the country with my wonderful husband. In addition to our "real" jobs (I work at a garden center and he is a teacher), we have a small farm where we raise vegetables, eggs and chickens to sell at local Farmer's Markets. We are currently fixing up/remodeling a house into which we will soon be moving...hopefully. In my free time, (what is that?) I enjoy traveling, cooking, crafty projects, reading and watching the sun set on the hills.

So, last night, my wonderful husband walked in the door with the mail and asked me if I was expecting a package from Amazon. I looked at him blankly, quickly going through my memory trying to figure out what Christmas … Continue reading
Parsnip Parsimony
Okay, this post doesn’t have much to do with parsimony, but it was just so alliterative. I will, however, be talking about parsnips. Perhaps you are unfamiliar with parsnips, as was I. That is, until last week, when a nice … Continue reading

My fine-feathered friends
I would like to introduce you to Annie, Penelope and Harriet, though I’m not really sure which one is which. They are delightful and easy to fall in love with. I love the way they do the “chicken scratch dance”. … Continue reading
