Wow! . . .

This year has come and is almost gone. I'm obviously not much of a blogger now, and that's fine with me. I've taken responsibilities and interest in other things. Life has taken . . . well, I'd say a pretty sharp turn over the last few months for my family. Many tears, and much laughter. Tears of sadness and tears of happiness. A new chapter, new experiences.

Thankful. For. My. Family.

I may post again soon, maybe not. I haven't been in the kitchen much; been enjoying trying to keep up with my family, and goaties :). I'll probably make some things for the ever-so-fastly approaching holiday. I mean, what girl in this house doesn't make some kind of dessert for Thanksgiving?

New Year's Eve Party 2014

It was a 1980's themed party. Great party! It started at about 8pm and we went to about 6am new year's day. We then did the chores and got to bed about 7am, after the sun started coming up :).

Some of my family . . . they're great :)!

Some of the goodies:

3 Musketeers (that I decided to drizzle with chocolate instead of dipping them)

Peanut Butter cups

Butterfingers (fun size)

Marshmallows (chocolate and 2 different colors of regular, vanilla)

Oatmeal Cookies

Peanut Butter Cookies

Cheesecake

Have a great day!

Just a few pics

Man, it's been a while since I last posted! My Grandmother was here for 3 weeks, we've had a couple parties, a couple goats have been born, etc. Thanksgiving is in a week, a great excuse to party again and make tons of food that we'll probably live off of for days ;). I don't have a recipe ready to share, but pictures? Yep!

Mom and a few of my sisters, just being goofballs :)

Lemon Basil Pineapple Banana Smoothie

And . . . it's August. Summer is coming to an end. The does are coming into heat; breeding season is in full swing, so that keeps me a little extra busy. Exiting tho, because you know what that means? In about 5 months we should be knee-deep in baby goats! Yeah, that time of year is tiring and exciting. But, we're still here in summer, and coming into fall. Rock out the end of summer with a cool, different, refreshing smoothie! 

1 cup or so of pineapple
two or three bananas
handful of fresh lemon basil
ice cubes
two or three tablespoons of honey (omit, or adjust as desired)
two cups of water

Blend in vitamix until smooth. Drink!
