And so it goes...

And now, a year after the abduction of Mrs. Kravitz, our world has grown by leaps and bounds.

The chicken coop is now twice as high. All three hens now live in it. Mrs. Kravitz (sometimes Gladys) is still judgy but gifted us with fourteen eggs last summer before she realized we LIKED her offerings and therefore decided to stop.



Agnes and Gertrude have grown up quite a bit.







The Garden blossomed last summer and blessed us with zucchinis around the time that Mrs. K was laying eggs.



Copious Zucchini Bread was made...

Anyone have any good recipes?
