The weather has turned glorious, sunny and warm with intermittent rains — the lawn has greened up overnight and there are daffodils and crocus blooming in the foundation beds.
I’ve been up to all sorts of fun. I made a couple of camembert cheeses that are ripening in the fridge, the chickens are getting big and we’re planning to build them a coop out of a packing crate in which a friend had some family things shipped over from England, and I planted lots of cold weather crops in the garden over the long weekend.
And perhaps the happiest of all developments, there seems to be a “we” in LivingSmall these days. I’ve got a lovely new friend, and we’ve been spending a lot of time up at his cabin in the mountains — so I think there might be a little more mountain fun like mushroom hunting and general foraging in our future here at the blog.
So, I’ll be back this week with tales of recent adventures …

I just got chickens, too. And am also building a chicken coop out of reclaimed materials. You can see my new little darlings on my blog, Prose and Potatoes.
I missed you last week, welcome back! Glad to hear that Spring is springing.
friend! cabin! oooh!
