| The header I have put up today is a picture of a quilted table runner my good friend and fellow blogger Mary at http://faithfabricandphotos.blogspot.com made for me and it represents a dozen beautiful eggs along with 3 chickens on the bottom, and yellow buttons for corn. I absolutely love it, and will be using it for a table runner on my Thanksgiving table this year. The girls all went out fairly early and I found them later sitting in the sun soaking up some warmth. All my chickens are free range, but we have them pastured behind a 6 ft. chain link fence because of preditors. |

| As soon as they see me walk toward them, they all race toward the fence looking for any treats I might have. On these really cold mornings I sometimes cook them up steel cut oatmeal mixed with raisins, apple chunks, a little scratch, and maybe some crushed peanuts. They LOVE it. Of course I wait till it cools a bit, and I don't give it very often, but it's a warm treat on these frigid mornings.. |
