First of all, the horses are gone and I sent a baby goat and a quart of goat milk along with them. Why I feel the need to give people things I will never know.
I want to give special kudos to Cathy of Noble Pig. Why? Ah, well you may ask. She made me laugh out loud with this post only two hours after my traumatic separation from the horses. I feel that deserves special recognition. Consider that not only was I dealing with MY emotions but those of my 4 year old and my 12 year old. Do you understand how much 4 year old and 12 year old girls LOVE horses? Kyrie looked like the penguin in Bugs Bunny.
I found an artisan coffee roaster that I had not seen before. Muddy Dog is a small artisan company that specializes in green and fairly traded coffees. Anyone tried them yet? I have a query into them so we will see what happens. I always envision the roaster getting my email and saying..”Hey! Fred! Another low-life, dead beat blogger wants free coffee to review! Let’ s send them the floor sweepings.”
Alice, at Tea in My Cuphas a thoughtful post about children in tea rooms. Have you ever been having a quiet tea with friends and had a couple of Mommys come in with ill behaved children? Why is it that those kids are always named Punkin, Sweetums, Baby, and Darlin’?

O.k.the award for the weirdest coffee grinder ever. Since this is sort of a family blog I am not sure I want to say a whole lot more..
Is this taking the Fair Trade Label a BIT too far?
Have a great weekend!
