Spring is busting out all over Apple Tree Farm

March 27, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Last week Gentilly (aka “Tilly”) had her babies. I’d been suggesting she just have three rather than the five or six our cats generally like to have. She did pretty good and just had four. Most of our cats have been mostly black. We’ve had the occasional striped kitty and a gray one (poor Gracie…

Dee, the Domestic Diva

January 16, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 7 Comments

One of my New Orleans friends is fascinated and impressed by the fact that I iron my pillowcases when I wash my sheets each Monday. So much so that she sent me a link for a job: “Domestic Diva Needed for Advice Blog” It also included doing video blogs. She said I’d be perfect for…

Labor saving devices

Lisa and I went to Norman today to pick up the organic turkey breasts we had pre-ordered. We had a few other things we needed or wanted so we ended up going to five or six shops. Both of us have a lot to do this week so we managed to sandwich in this trip…

Oh, deer…

This morning David noticed this in our backyard: He told me about it when he came upstairs to finish getting ready for work so of course I had to go check it out. I took that first photo through our needs-to-be-washed sliding glass door because I didn’t want to frighten it off by opening the…

Homemaking is back in style

November 2, 2011 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

The other day I read this post by Jamie Lee Curtis in which she muses about how she became a woman who is “obsessed with making gourmet food, organically grown, artisanally produced as (she) plays Words With Friends…this generation’s Coffee Klatch…”. She’s certainly not the first to make the observation that there seems to be…

Morning Harvest

July 11, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

My plans for a big vegetable garden haven’t quite panned out due to extreme heat and no rain. However, I did plant some potatoes a couple of months ago and today I decided to see what might be lurking beneath the soil. I pulled out a few small potatoes from one of the buckets. I…

Cat Cuteness

March 29, 2011 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I love Simon’s Cat and this one just cracked me up: And now for a dose of incredible cuteness: Do you see that little tongue sticking out? Oh, my goodness. Almost too much cuteness.
