Chicken Lessons

Every day when I go check on our chickens they run to me as if to say "Hi! What's going on?" They are curious about what I'm doing. They are happy when I talk to them and tell them what I'm doing. They are interested in what I have to say.

Not only that, they are satisfied with what they have. They are low maintenance. They don't complain about what they have or want more than they need.

I guess what it boils down to is that they are happy little creatures that appreciate others and are grateful for what they have. Maybe some people could learn a little from chickens.

Clams!

We went clamming and each got our limit of 12. These are called Empire clams. I'll be making fresh clam strips for dinner tonight. Yum! Next on my list is to can some clam chowder base. That will be awesome to have on hand in the winter.
