I survived my week away and so did my mom and the farm! I flew out from International Falls last Monday and, despite the flight being delayed due to a mechanical issue causing me to miss my connecting flight from Minneapolis to Nashville, it was a really great week. I […]
Kim Jo Bliss – Moo’s From The Herd
I was leaving the house last Saturday at noon to pick up the rest of my Christmas lights when I heard a cow bawl. That made me very suspicious, because generally, right now, they have no reason to make much sound. I headed straight out and I was greeted with a […]
Thankfully it is looking like we might be moving out of the deep freeze. I am hoping I can stop worrying about all the things that could potentially go wrong. Then again, it is doubtful because that seems to be something I am good at. I really don’t have anything to complain […]
It seems as though winter had found us and is planning to stick around for a bit. I was planning to leave Lexi at home this morning but she insisted on going for our morning walk but she was very anxious to get in the house when we got back. […]
I can’t believe we are nearly at mid-January! I always remember Nanny telling me “January is a long, cold month.” We haven’t had it to bad for weather but it does look like the more normal January temperatures are returning this week. I am not completely over Christmas. I did […]
Happy New Year friends! I wonder how long it will take me to remember to write 2026? I am still in Christmas mode mostly here but everyday I try and removed some type of decoration that is more related to Christmas and turn things into more of a winter theme. […]
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas, no matter how you choose to celebrate the day! Ours was packed with great food and even better company. I thought it was one of our best suppers; I didn’t overcook the Brussels sprouts and our farm fresh turkey (raised by my […]
I once again find myself feeling stressed because I am not ready for Christmas! I don’t even have my house decorated or tree up yet! This week it will happen but not sure when! I did manage to finish my outside lights despite the cold temperatures and my fingers freezing! […]
Once again I am coming to you from an airport waiting on a delayed flight. It seems normal for me but I always try to remind myself that everything happens for a reason so perhaps it is safer for me to be sitting waiting. This is my last trip until February […]
Yikes: it always seems a bit scary when you see December 1st on your calendar! We are trying to cut back on gifts this year but there are still a few special people that I want to gift something. Honestly, I love giving gifts, it is just figuring out what […]
I am hearing this amazing weather could be ending abruptly. It sure has been enjoyable. We have been warmer than in many parts of the province and I have enjoyed bragging about that. (Which will not likely bite me in the butt.) I have been feeding my cows twice a […]
I am writing you this Moos from the big smoke – Toronto! I am here for a couple of days to attend a few meetings at Queen’s Park. I will be speaking on things like Abattoir Tax Classifications, Breeder Loan Programs and other important things that are pertinent to the […]
