Just Got Home

I just got home and I opened the refrigerator to find about 6 liters of goats milk. While I was trying to decide what to do with it and when to do what, Harry called. He told me there are artichokes and asparagus to pick. 
We have started to call our Meshek (farm) the empire. It is often overwhelming but when there are good results like fresh vegetables and fruit or homemade cheeses, it is great.
We have about 7 acres and we grow all types of fruits, nuts, and vegetables. We also raise sheep, goats,chickens,turkeys, peacocks, and ducks. 
 We built a fancy house and we share it with any weak, tired, cold, or wounded animal who needs a break from the outside conditions of our Meshek. We have raised chicks in the basement. Last winter we kept some "handicapped" sheep in our son's room and right now we are letting 2 young ducks stay warm upstairs.
