This is one of my favorite pictures of my Mom growing up. She is playing with her Dad’s socks. Adorable isn’t she?

    That’s a great one! I’ve got most of my family’s old photos…my favorite of my mom has her circa 1918 on a very fat pinto pony.

    Thanks so much for your visit and kind complements. I am quite honored. I know how hard it is as one’s blog gets bigger to keep up with everyone, so I appreciate your kindness in coming to the SMB.

    I seem to have a growing fan base with the Mommy bloggers, which sort of surprised me given that I’m a middle-aged childless lesbian goat farmer. But the kids enjoy looking at the animals on the farm, and the mommies get a little reading in and my Food Porn Friday articles have some good, if not entirely healthy recipes.

    So, thanks so much for your visit and I will indeed blogroll you and return for a visit now and again.
