Been a little busy around the old Moby… and work crept up on me…. had to get some stuff done and finished up before the guys left for Grey Fox. So I’ve been a little behind in posting.
We got the fort painted.. YEAH! So now it matches the shed.
Tim fixed the door too… it was hanging weird and all, like this in the picture below…. But he took it down, cut off the rotted bottom, added some wood to stabilize it and added a top piece as well… so it’s AWESOME…
As as awesome as a shed can be….
And Gypsy got a bath…. we don’t have it TOO bad around here for fleas and ticks, but we do have them and I just do not want fleas in my Moby…. so we’re pretty careful about keeping the livestock washed and powdered and everyone has a flea collar, that kind of thing.
Well, not everyone has a flea collar… just the livestock. (haha)
We harvested our pearl onions… aren’t they cute? They didn’t make a ton of them, but the ones that we dug up were wonderful!
Been getting a lot of beans…. which I love and my girls do not… so I’ve been eating a lot of green beans, fresh from the garden! YUM!
Take a look at that pepper! It’s a giant Marconi pepper…. sweet not spicy… and I can’t wait to serve that baby up tonight on the grill. And of course… MORE BEANS! Yeah!
The beans and onions went into a pork and tomato stew in the crockpot last night and that was good. Simple and easy and half homegrown and the other half local… Good stuff.
Been working pretty hard on a couple designs for the company for t-shirts… spent all Sunday hand drawing these images to look like woodcuts…
And came up with these two shirt designs… the guitar one has already been printed and is on it’s way to Grey Fox… the jams one is coming up next week!
Getting ready to have a domestic diva day… got friends coming over to grill, and visit and play mah jongg with us tonight for our older girls birthday party… (my friend Shelly and I’s children have close birthdays… Maggie and JB in April and Jessy and Sarah in June!) So we always try and get together and have a little visit and dinner and fun time to celebrate… So we’ve got the get everything tidy and bake a cake and get some stuff ready for the fun! Talk at ya later! Be good!

And you’re an artist, too! Is there anything you cannot do?
Those pearl onions look SO yummy. I’ll have to give it a try next year (just keep adding to the “want to grow” list!)
Hahaha…. that’s what I do for a living… I’m a graphic artist and own a small publishing company. I publish homeschool materials, bluegrass music instructional stuff, and run about 50 websites for myself and clients… crazy life I know!
Google Westvon Publishing and you’ll see us all the dang place… and it’s all done out of my little moby home! hahaha….
Yeah, the pearl onions are just so cute…. they were supposed to be like sweet onions but then when we got the set home, it was mixed up so we just planted them. Didn’t take too long… and they are just cute and were perfectly yummy in the stew!
