Farmer's Work is Never Done

Well, it's another Christmas Day and we must work. I decided to make it a bit more special as far as luxury, I'd make a hearty breakfast for my husband and me. You see, even farmers don't always get the chance to eat the proverbial 'farmhouse breakfast' EVEN on a holiday. So while most were still in bed, or perhaps unwrapping gifts beneath a tree, we were already out the door. But what a joy to have our own farm grown foods as well as some of our farming friends to add to it! I fried up some of our own bacon

and made an omelete with Boucher Farm eggs and Orb Weaver Farm cheese.....

And then we were off to go look at some cows at Cimarron Farm.......he had Normande cross cows to sell.

Then back to do chores (farmers' term for each day's work that must get done) and then after that, turn cheeses.
