Big Boy Now

 

The Cochin hen and Polish rooster filled the chicken mansion with 10 cookies and cream chicks this past summer. A bit weird looking and odd colors, but absolutely adorable. 

 

Not sure how many are roosters and how many hens. As they have grown up they are 'different', and fly almost as much as they walk... but are still adorable.  When the sun is shining on them, they show a blaze of color. 

 

 This Big Boy is absolutely stunning, and was perching on the big chicken coop fence. We let them mingle with all the chickens during the day, but they march back to the chicken mansion when it starts getting dusk.

 

Too bad the sun wasn't brightly shining when he posed for this photo.

 

What a January 

Cooking Krautburgers today

It has been so cold that I feel the need for some comfort food that will stick to your ribs. First start by to fry about a pound of hamburger in a large skillet, add shredded cabbage, and onions (I like lots of onion and use about 3 or 4 per head of cabbage). Salt to taste, and add about a tablespoon of black pepper. Fry till the cabbage is getting good and brown on the bottom Stirring and turning it abour every 15 minutes or so..  Make a yeast dough (or take a short cut and buy frozen ready to bake loaves like my sister in law Virginia does) and roll it out pretty thin. Place the cabbage mixture in the center of dough squares.

Bring up the sides and pinch them shut. Place on greased baking pan with the pinched sides down.

 

 

Ta Da!!! Come and Get it.
