{A moment}

 

 

Today, instead of {this moment}, I will be taking {a moment} as inspired by SouleMama.

 

A silent moment in thoughtful memory of Kathreen and Rob who tragically died this week and sending a  love and light to their children.

 

First harvest of the season - Rhubarb

Very yummy is all that I can say :)

Meet the cast - Thumper

I'd like you to meet Thumper, a 1.5 year old buck that has joined the homestead today and will be my breeding buck (together with Muckel). Thumper came to me via an old friend of my dad's. When I was younger and me dad was still breeding rabbits, Boxer and me dad used to exchange breeding bucks or does every few years to keep the lines fresh. He wanted to give this one away as he had no room left and now he is with me.
Thumper has just joined us this morning and is still quite anxious and shy but I am sure he will settle in soon. He has beautiful markings don't you think?

Kitchen

My kitchen was one of the major things that needed to get done. I wanted to have tiles on the wall and so today we actually spend the day to fix the kitchen. Looks beautiful don't you think? I still need to tidy up and do something about the floor but so far it looks already amazing

A walk in the countryside

 

Oh how I love May, everything starts to turn green

 

Truely blessed to live here!

the rabbits & their food

Since Muckel has turned 4 month now, I figured I give it a try to mate him and Mia. So I took her out of the cage and put her in his cage and waited and watched. Here is the two of them together. From what I learned Muckel might have been successfull but we will only know for sure in 31 days from now. Well fingers crossed.

 I then spend some time to clear and thin out the root crops that I planted for the rabbits

cabbage & beans

Eearlier today I went to the local nursery to get some red & white cabbage and kholrabi plants. At 0.15 cent the piece it was cheaper to get them grown at the nursery then me attempting to do it at home (and I did try at least with the kholrabi). I planted them, as well as the beans and some more cucumbers and just as I finished a nice slow rain started to fall down, that's what I call timing
