Hmmm....we will see how this works!

Ok, this is the 2nd try.  I don't know if I will figure this out or not, but I will try.  I am hoping this will be a combination blog, and will be a way for family, friends, and customers to keep up w/me, and what's happening in our little world. 

Today is a catch up day!  We have been very busy at the bed and breakfast, which is a good thing, but I need to get caught up at home.  Jeff has been working a bunch of overtime, trying to figure out this truck he's been working on for 2 weeks.  He is getting cranky about it.  The day started out w/fixing breakfast for some interesting customers.  They have the same last name as us, and the spelling is the same, which is unusual.  I am wondering if they are related to Jeff's family.  It's a possibility since some of Jeff's family is in St. Charles, and this guy grew up in St. Louis.  There are a lot of similarities, like they both farm, and they also both barter things.  An example of this is that Jeff trades 1/2 a hog for about 30 chickens.  This guy trades things in exchange for homemade bread, as well as other deals!  LOL!  It would be interesting to check into the family histories.  I served them fruit salad, bacon, scrambled eggs w/cheese and strawberry stuffed french toast.  It seemed to to go over well.  Then I mowed grass for almost 3 hours, went shopping and am keeping both washing machines going.  I also have both clotheslines full!  I am making chicken and veggie kabobs for supper.  I might get brave and post some pictures later, but I'm not sure yet. 

Anyway, stay tuned if you like.  I'm not sure how often I will keep up w/this, but I will try to update regularly.  :)
