My Birthday

To celebrate my birthday this year we did a Low Country Boil.  This basically consists of shrimp, potatoes, sausage, corn and for me we added crab legs.  Dinner was delicious.  I'm even thinking about having this again for my birthday dinner next year.


For dessert, Brian ordered me a birthday cake from Apple Annies.  It was chocolate cake with strawberries.  So so good!  It was so pretty I kind of didn't want to eat it.

New Chicken

The woman we got our chickens from said that she felt bad that we ended up with a rooster that she gave us one of her hens.  This hen was getting attacked by her other hens and was basically by itself all the time.  So we said why not.  Her name is Annie and she is a Bantam Mille Fleur Cochin chicken.  She is much smaller than our other chickens.  And they don't seem to like her so much either.  Right now she is living in Maggie's dog crate next to the chicken coop.  Lets hope it gets better.
