We added to the crazy here at The Acre this week. "Ol Huff n Puff" sat on a dozen eggs for the past month, and this week they started to hatch. At publication time, two new ducks were alive and well. We expect the rest to trickle in as the week rolls out.
Other goings on this week, we added to the brush cover in the big pond. The brush we added earlier in the year as sank down under the water. Lawman had some more limbs that were knocking his new hat off when he mowed, so he killed two birds at one time. He trimmed the branches and added to the cover for the fish.
He still thinks he's able to military, so he spent the whole time explaining how what he was doing is "Australian Rappelling"
Then as luck would have it, the first branch stood straight up in the water. We thought maybe it would just take root, but it eventually fell over as intended.
Baby fish have more cover now.
Our shower head gave up the ghost this week. Cupcake picked out the new shower head and recalled how in her previous life, she would have to hose off in the yard for three weeks and then get "The Outlaw" to come fix her shower for her. No such drama today.
We had a few meal updates worth mentioning this week. A request for choco chip cookies.
Scratch made pizza one night.
Fresh from the garden cornbread.
While we were canning everything under the sun, Lawman hit on the idea to put some dried beans in a jar and cook it. We had a meatless meal Sunday night and this was a part of it.
We have been steady frying squash, but we still have way too much to squash, so we started getting creative. Parmesan crusted squash included in our Sunday dinner.
And of course, fried green tomatoes
We ended the week with a couple of naps and a full belly.
