Today is unseasonably warm here at Kingfisher Farm! It's 75 degrees. Only a few days ago we needed the heavy comforter on the bed, and now just the sheet! The chickens are laying many eggs a day now. I adore our fresh eggs! No better omelet can be found on earth than the one made from freshly gathered eggs. The shells are so pretty, warm tans and light blue greens. I hate to crack them, but its worth it! Lacey, my favorite hen, a light Brahma, always follows me. She talks so earnestly, and I spoil her with my peelings and scraps from the kitchen. She is also not above stealing grain spilled by the horses, or even dry catfood! She'll never starve, she eats so many bugs too. I cant tell you how fond I am of my hens! I hope today is a lovely day for you too. Pam

What Spring Brings!









I am so thankful for my favorite season! Spring! I adore the birds returning to my gardens, the soft breezes, the rains, and of course , the flowers! Here is a look at my garden in Spring.

My life as an artist!




Today the air is crisp and I head to the kitchen for a cup of tea to warm my fingers. The woodstove has gone cold during the night, and my studio is crisply cold! I must stoke up the coals, surely there are some left....ahhhhhh. The fire awakens with a flickering dance! I must create today. I am filled to the brim after visiting "A Gathering on the Prairie"! I could not resist 2 antique dollies, one a peg wooden and the other a paper mache boy with the most whimsical smile on his lips. The show was packed with prinitive antiques, and friendly faces shoulder to shoulder! I have a bear in mind after this wonderful morning spent among the momentos of simpler times...........ahhhhhhh. So many wonderful textiles and prims............
