Painting and Planting...

 

 Howdy friends! Whew doggies is it busy around here! Are you burning the candle at both ends too? 

 There's so much to do this time of year, but it's all good, right?

My Duck Egg Blue Annie Sloan Chalk Paint arrived by mail yesterday! Now I can get started on that monster in the above photo... It's a great piece with lots of little carvings and details. I'll be back with after photos once I've tamed her into the elegant lady she is destined to be!

I'll be in the garden while the paint dries... It's just nutty I tell ya!  

 

 

Tasty Tuesday~ Homemade Goats Butter

Welcome to Tasty Tuesday at Dandelion House! Your go- to spot for trying something new and healthy each week in your homestead kitchen. 

 This week's Tasty Tuesday feature is a double share recipe and a treat for all of  my friends who keep goats. I do not keep goats, but I love seeing all of yours and enjoy sharing things I think will inspire you in your goat keeping adventures! 

Michelle from Little Piece of Heaven featured this amazing homemade goats butter tutorial from Louise's Country Closet on her blog last week and shared it again on Farmgirl Friday. I guess that makes it a triple share! 

 Here's what Louise has to say about raising goats and making your own homemade goat butter...

Homemade Butter Using Goat Milk 

" Getting our own goats wasn't just because we wanted another pet (the stranger, the better!) but we wanted to have our own milk, make our own cheese and even try our hand at butter. I really didn't research much into the butter part of it because who would have thought that making something so simple could be so difficult? Well, turns out it wasn't quite as hard as I thought it would be! " ~ Louise
