Exciting day today, I got to pick up the ham and bacon I had cured at our local processing place beside Dairy Queen! I can't wait to delve into it. Easter ham, spring greens with bacon dressing, plus all the pork chops, ribs, roasts and sausage I already have in my freezer.I would assume that it was organic since the pigs only eat the food/corn my brother grows on his farm. Thank God I won a large freezer from that estate auction! I may be adding beef to the collection next month.
After having a week of questionable weather, we are blessed with a day of full on sunshine! Hope for spring!  If you look at the sky you could almost believe it is warm outside. I plan on sending the kidlets out to play when they are done with their homework.The pond ice is too rough for them to skate. So sled riding is on the agenda.  Nothing like some fresh air to wear them out.  They are finally back at school today after having two snow days. Tomorrow is Grandparents day at their school so they will spend an afternoon at my moms with their other cousins. My sister#4 and SIL both send their kids to the same school as I. It is a catholic school but no plaid anything or any other uniforms. It is a country school with christian values. They could go to public school, it would save us money, but we really feel like its the best choice.
