I Did It ... Thanks to You

Well thanks to you lovely lot I DID IT .... won the February Little Blog of the Month Award over at Dorset Cereals.

Woop, woop ... does happy little jiggy dance all around the office

And this morning in the post this little treasure arrived. They are handmade by Lara in the Dorset Cereals office and now added to the one I won back in December of 2012 we have a matching pair to keep mine and Lovely Hubby's eggs warm.

Soft boiled eggs for breakfast tomorrow then :-)

THANK YOU to each and everyone who took the time to vote for me and if I can return the favour just let me know.

Sue xx

Brilliant. That will help the £365 stretch too. Are you sure that's an egg cosy, it would look cute on a hen ;-)

It could not have gone to a more deserving home. Even though I have been green with envy since you moved to Wales I had to vote for you. My own move begins to look as though it will be sooner rather than later.

This was my Blog, just me writing about our day to day life learning all about and then living the smallholding life. First we started on a farm in Oxfordshire, then we moved to a smaller place in Berkshire (both in England) and then we found a place of our very own at the bottom of a hillside in North Wales. Along for the ride were all our various animals, and we ended up with just our dogs, Suky and Mavis, our cat Ginger .... who secretly thinks he's one of the canine gang, a sheep called Ethel who wandered in off the road and stayed... and a roving band of egg laying chickens that live cheek by jowl with the local wildlife.

We grow our own fruit and vegetables, selling surplus plants and edibles at the gate. We sell the eggs the chickens lay, we reuse, recycle and rethink ... and life ticks over at a pace that suits us.

It was simply the wild and wacky ramblings of a 50 something townie turned country girl called Sue, who lost her heart to a sailor and started a new life in the country .... many years ago. On a path that took us from Cumbria to Oxfordshire, to Berkshire and then we found our home at the bottom of a wet and windy Welsh hillside by a busy main road.

Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and relax into a world of dogs, cats, chickens, polytunnels and veggies with the occasional grass munching sheep thrown in for good measure.

Sue xx

Our New Life in the Country is my blog.

I use it to chart the day by day, week by week, year by year goings on in mine and Lovely Hubby's life. In it I also express my views and opinions, and say what I do and occasionally how I do it. I am hoping that this will prove to be a useful reminder for myself of how we did things, as we continue in our learning process.

If you chose to follow my practices it is assumed that you will do so with care and consideration, and question where necessary any methods or techniques I use to your own satisfaction and match them to your own circumstances.
