One tree variety already blooming in our yard, are the many Magnolia trees that have been arriving over the course of the last couple weeks.

Finally. The seeds & baby plants are in. The weather is warming up...

It's not all baby goats, sunshine, and flowers. While most of this homestead life is beautiful, it is also work.

Using whatever variety of dried herbs you like, place in a mortar with pestle and add course salt and peppercorns.
