I smell Spring!

There's sooo much going on around here, and I'm pretty sure my to-do list only says, "run around in circles".  I'm not going to complain too much though, some of the busy-ness is good stuff, like scrubbing up the new home for my Martha Cave.

Or getting ready to re-take all the photos for my shop!  That one I'm really excited about.  It's spring after all, and everything needs a fresh new look.  And I have a pile of brand new things that haven't been seen yet!  Unless you happen to follow me over at Instagram (@jemily383)... I tend to give sneak peaks of items in progress there.  ;)

Then there's the fact that I think Spring really is here, and that means cleaning out the goat hut, and the chicken coop, and the gardens...  Which means I better get the compost bins moved asap.  But not today, or next week, because somehow we're getting more snow.

And then there's my nerdy, office supply loving, excitement of upgrading some equipment around here.  Like a shipping scale, so I can get orders out quicker, without bugging the post lady three times a week.  And this is where I have to share a secret, my scale is going to cost next to nothing because of this thing called Swagbucks.  Have you heard of it yet?  You just sign up using this link (I don't use the computer version, I just grabbed the apps on my phone), and then when you browse for, say... White Goat Ranch, you could earn points.  Or you can take daily surveys, or watch videos, or go shopping.  Anyway, you use the app, they dish out points, and you cash them in for real giftcards.  Which I didn't trust at first, until I cashed in my first one for Amazon.  And now I'm hooked.  Anddd, if you use my links to sign up, I get points too, which would be awesome, and I'd be super grateful, as would my post lady.  ;)  So please check it out.

OHHH!  And I almost forgot, we finally were able to order the parts to fix my oven!!!!  For this scratch baker, and cooker, this is almost like winning the lottery... almost.  So be prepared for many post with my favorite recipes soon!!!  And many gripes about dishes.

Now it's back to work.  Thanks for stopping in!

What's going on in your neck of the woods?
