Farm, Fluff & Nonsense
Look what I did! I canned tomatoes! I’m such a little farmer.
I see spaghetti and chili and pizza! 
Speaking of farming, I’m not kidding–they make miniature cows. We could have miniature milk and miniature butter!!!
We could have a whole wee world. Miniature barn. Miniature horses. Miniature chickens. Miniature corn. Cherry tomatoes only, of course. And no more pies, just tartlets–prepared in the Easy-Bake Oven in our dollhouse.
Would this make us the laughingstock of the real farmers?

Spaghetti, chili, and pizza: three of my favorite things!

Okay, you can cook for me anytime.
I didn’t know there were miniature cows! How bizarre. What’s the point/purpose? Must humankind mess around with everything???
BTW, I have always maintained that I hate to cook because I never got an Easy Bake Oven, though I repeatedly asked for one. Well, that’s my story, at any rate. Heh heh.

I’m curiously craving spaghetti right now… Very cool pic with the way the light reflects in it.

I’ve seen miniature horses,donkeys and goats, but not cows. I guess that would be the suburbanite thing to raise if you just wanted a taste of the country life.
Hope everyone has a great day today.

Don’t forget the miniature cats to catch the miniature mice
My grandmother used to can things - I sure do miss that homegrown food.

Your tomatoes look great. I canned 25 pints this year and may do a few more. They are so good to cook with.

Hey, your miniature farm could be a tourist attraction! Especially now that West Virginia is open for business!

Ihave canned for almost 50 years. Nothing tastes as good as home grown and home canned!

The miniature cows are so cute!
I have to tell you, Suzanne, you could put together a “life on a farm” calendar of your professional-quality photographs. They’re beautiful - the tomatoes look great!

Hi Suzanne!
I see your kids are back in school too… I am slowly getting into the new groove.
Great job on the canning! We didn’t have a veg. garden this year but hopefully next year and I can do those kinds of things again!
Have a great week!

Ooh, the canned tomato’s look yummy!
Miniature cows? That is just odd. Possibly cute, but odd.

You might be the laughing stock of the neighborhood for a while, but I suspect at least some of the miniatures would catch on. Besides, the cows are so cute!
