Cabinet Magic


Ok I admit it I hate housework. We moved so often in my childhood that cleaning the house was just not done. We moved instead. But as an adult I am having to maintain my house. We have cats and rabbits and fur is a problem. The vacuum takes care of most of that. But thanks to all our home cooking for most meals, the cabinets got furry. I tried everything to get the grease and fur off them. Then I found this and life is great.


Parker & Bailey cabinet cream on Amazon. Just a quarter size drop on a wet rag and then a dry rag and bam, instant clean, waxed shiney new cabinet. No sticky, no greasy, no furry, it all came out on the rag. It took 1 hour to do my entire kitchen. And it made me super happy. No scent to bother you. Just nice clean cabinets again.


Our hickory cabinets are new again! 





 

Green beans and firewood


This week my April planted green beans are ready to harvest them and planting more for the fall season.


We were pulling the old hay out of the lean too and there was a fresh dead armadillo wedged between the bale and the wall. It was a huge stinking mess I had to deal with in 90 degree heat. Not a fun time.


This is a Cottonmouth. Highly aggressive snake seen in our rivers and ponds this time of the year.



My baby ducklings are growing up. They are trained to return to the coop at night and they do. One nice thing about livestock raising experience, it makes life a bit easier. These are Muscovy and the brown ones are Indian runners.


We had three trees fall down in the windstorm this month. Fully leafed out heavy wet wood. We were able to cut and split them and stack them to season. Nice to have firewood for winter.

 

Farm For Sale in Missouri

 I wanted to post this for a nice family that came to our small Catholic church on June 13, 2021. They had 4 girls and one boy looking for a house with farm land around us. They drove 36 hours from Boston to look at a house in Mtn Grove, MO. The house was sold before they got here. So they called a for sale by owner near Mtn. View, MO instead. We had the pleasure of meeting them on their journey to buy a farm.

There is a lot of property not listed or banked owned sold at auction. This one is one of those.
