Making bacon, literally. Trying to farm small raising KuneKune pigs, Narragansett turkeys, an eclectic barnyard mix of chickens, wild children and homegrown fruits and veggies.

My dahlias are beginning to open. First time growing them.

Enjoy!

#dahlia #pnwgarden #flowers

2” deep red dahlia bloom. The petals are rolled and look as the one would imagine if you rolled your tongue.

These crackers “Pop Mmms” from @simple-mills.bsky.social are my daughter and my current favorite crunchy snack. We especially love the pizza flavor but also enjoy the cheesy ones. Pleased about this gluten free find. #gfree #snacks

Currently not enjoying my 18 year olds new sense of… assholiness. Hahaha. Ah, to be so unbothered AND annoyed by all. Such sass for one so new to the world.

Dino Dan, Dino Dana, and now Dino Dex. Lucky enough to have them all play in my home throughout the years. Wholesome shows and educational.

Today we found a song thrush nest next to the water hydrant in the garden. 3 perfect little eggs. She flies off for me to turn the water off and on and then comes right back. 🐦‍⬛

Dusting off the sous vide to hard boil these turkey eggs to perfection. 🦃🥚

We should, we have endless content.

On today’s special Mother’s Day edition of ‘Adam Leans’ we have the specimen in the kitchen leaning against the counter while I make myself breakfast.

Happy Mother’s Day to all!!! 😊

Adam leaning with his back to the kitchen island. He is wearing a black cap, his trusty teal Defcon hoodie - zipped up, well worn but clean brown pants, and socked feet. He’s perusing the internet, probably Bluesky on his phone or reels to distract his wife with while she tries to make her breakfast. *smiley face*

Latte art vaguely resembling a jolly old man.

My 10 year old got to take a field trip to her future middle school yesterday. How did it go? She heard about middle schoolers offering her classmates from the elementary, drugs, which she doesn’t even fully understand yet and for good reason. Problematic if you ask me. Kinda pissed about it.

The husband has been hard at work getting a second coop put together. This coop will allow us to separate the turkeys and the chickens, a much needed thing. #crampedcoop #turkeyvshen #chickencoop #homestead #hubthebuilder

Turkey coop build progress. The most difficult part of this is ignoring the turkey screaming over and over again at every noise just out of frame.

Not everybody is as comfortable with the term “tree pubes” as the rest of us.

It’s official! Turkey egg laying season has begun!! Found the first two this morning. We’ll hatch and raise a few birds for freezer camp but the rest of the eggs make delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner additions! 🦃

Accidental coffee art this morning, maybe my little coffee milk foam monster doesn’t want to suffer being imbibed by me… should I feel guilty? ☕️

Rachel Baldwin @babyfro.bsky.social · Apr 3

Pulled up carrots I overwintered just now(mostly accidentally) looks like a tasty dinner addition to me. I’ve more to gather for another day! #pnwgarden #hobbyfarm #carrots 🥕🌱

We had steak for dinner last night. As I was slicing it up I was appreciative of the fact that our pork which you see here is so good, juicy and flavorful. That’s right, this is a KuneKune pork steak and it was delicious.

Sliced cooked KuneKune pork steak. Meat is red like a nice beef steak.

Today’s “Adam Lean’s” contribution quickly shifted to “Adam Scratches” and I realized after I got caught (I survived) that I have inspiration for another study… as Adam scratches a lot too. @evilpacket.net

Adam leans against the pantry entry sporting a charcoal colored beanie, a comfortable black flannel top, a different pair of brown worn jeans than normal, white socks (his trusty brown boots forgotten…)
