Robins
I saw three Robins this morning – a good sign that there is an end to another Minnesota winter and I lived!

Update from Milk and Honey Farm
The Pyr pups doing good in Bob’s office. Mocca is a great Mom. I can almost see the puppies grow. Baby chicks arrive nest week. They will be in a box in the kitchen. A heat lamp will be hanging from the ceiling to keep them warm. Most of my seeds have germinated under the grow lights in the basement. Today, I will transplant some of them into larger pots. There is a blizzard happening outside my window. No worries. I will make spaghetti sauce and watch it snow. It is well with me.

Great Pyrenees Puppy Update
Mocca and Boaz had their puppies on February 28. There are three males and four females. One of the females is all white, all the rest have beautiful badger markings. There are photos of the parents on the web sight. Check Milk and Honey farm.com for information or call me for details. Mocca and the pups are housed in Bob’s office in a baby swimming pool. This is fun for me to have them inside and close. Bob is being a good sport about the whole thing. In a week or so , they will go out to the barn kennel with with rest of the gang. Meanwhile, I am smiling. A lot!

Cherry Tomatoes
I planted Brandy wine, Amish Paste, Delicious, Italian Paste, and more heirloom tomato seeds under grow lights. The first to germinate are the Cherry tomatoes. They are sticking up about 1/2 an inch. This makes me Happy! Happy! Happy! It is hard to wait for Spring in Minnesota. I plant seeds under the grow lights in February. Great Pyrenees puppies arrive in March. New Zealand baby bunnies, baby chicks, and baby ducks are also expected in March. April is when the baby lambs are born. May is planting time in the main garden. Smiling now.

Mall of America
The news reports possible terrorism at the Mall of America in Minnesota. My regular prayer for me and mine is “To Always be at the right place at the right time. Never at the wrong place at the wrong time.” I will go where I want, when I want, and will not live in fear. The Lord has answered this prayer for me and members of my family many, many, times. Being free from the intimidation and activities of the enemy is a beautiful thing.

The Church
The church is not my world. The world is my church.

Bob’s Computer Project
Anyone can go out and buy a computer. Bob builds them for fun. My kitchen has been his work shop this week end. He is heavy into winter project mode.

Bob’s Plane Project
Bob spent 20 years in the Air Force. He still likes planes, except now he builds them. This one is called an Alpha jet. He will fly it in the pasture beside our house–once the snow melts. It will fly at 35-40 miles per hour. He will operate the transmitter from the ground, ( an acquired. skill). Winter is project time at the farm. This is one of his favorites!

What to do when
When it is four degrees above zero outside and it is warm in the old farm house, I stay inside. The war against winter still goes on. Today, I will be placing my order for baby chicks and ducks from Cackle Hatchery. Next, more herb seeds will be planted under grow lights. Finally, I will sort out some spring and summer clothes from the storage closet. Planning ahead keeps me sane in the long Minnesota winters. Take that!!!
