And the weather has been...*really* miserable. February was an ordeal! Here I think this says it all right here. There on the left. The snow devil out there whipping by the barn. That field was full of them for days.
And..I'm *hugely* embarrassed to have been...stuck! Yes. Stuck! The first time I've been stuck since 1988! At least then my truck had fallen through the ice into a pond. It's not like I was stuck in a snow bank or something.
No, they don't make them like they used to. I had to get a tractor to drag me out of there.
March didn't give us any relief.
It got so bad...I ..well...I made scones!
Most shocking! You see, I don't bake. This might be the first thing I ever baked from scratch! Bread and pancakes don't count. I followed this recipe and I used Saco powdered buttermilk. I keep that on hand mostly for making dressings. I thought they came out excellent. I had some homemade blueberry jam with my scone and I was quite tickled.
We're really looking forward to Spring around here! I hope I remember how to ride my horse!
Edit 17 March: Yes, I remembered how to ride my horse. Saturday was actually a very nice day around here.
