Cinnamon Sunday

It was a beautiful weekend, and a perfect weekend to hay, as it takes 3 days to cut, rake and then bale. Here is the cutting:

  


Tim was visiting for the weekend, and I made cinnamon rolls using Jim Lahey's famous No Knead Bread Recipe partnered with The Pioneer Woman's Cinnamon Roll Recipe (click on the links to check those out). Did this because Jim Lahey's bread recipe is so much easier (mix 4 ingredients, wait overnight and you're in business) and the result is delicious.

These are very sloppy and are one reason why I will never have my own cooking show.

Our Border Collie, Chloe, drove the sheep into the orchard field.

We cleaned out the cupboard and fed it to the pig.

Can of jackfruit, some old granola bars, stale Wherther's candies, melting chocolate, bread crumbs, strawberry ice cream in a broth of Caesar cocktail

"Can't talk. Eating." 

The pig lives in this barn in the field over from ours

We saw 10 new baby ducks! How did I not photograph this? I was in awe.

We walked to the neighbours to admire their new foal. He has one blue eye and one brown one, and is gentle and lovely, now 3 months old.

We found the one black eyed Susan that came up on the hillside, I've been trying to get these growing for a while, no dice.

Picked borscht ingredients

And marvelled at how we have a million green tomatoes but not a single red one, and it's the end of August.

And we picked sweet peas for my mother, which are also very late this year, but still taste very nice.

And that is how we spent this Sunday.
