Another bright sunny day!! Its about 25*. The roads were a little slippery coming home from the auction hall yesterday because all the rain that fell on Thursday froze during the night. I had thought I might try going for a ride today but not with all this ice. It's too slippery for me and the horses. So I'll have  to wait a while more.
The picture above was taken this morning from our side door. I love taking pictures of the silos in the morning.
Today I plan on playing catch up with a million and one things!! I have a lot of work to do with the books and for some reason...I've been craving soup the last few days, but haven't had time to make any because I've been working at the auction hall. Whenever I make soup, I make a big pot and eat it like crazy!! I usually am not a big eater so Dad and the boys get a kick out of how many bowls of soup I can eat in a day! Soup never lasts long around our house.
Another thing I could eat a lot of and never get tired of it is chicken pot pie. We rarely make it as it is a rather time consuming process. I think it has been probably three years since I made it last. I think its about time to make some! I'll have to do that soon and do a recipe post with it. It would be a long one since there are many steps involved.
 Well, I'd better get started one that million and one things I have to do today!

Lauren your stories bring back so many memories--- I remember when I was young growing up on the farm- Mom (my foster Mom) would make a big ole pot of soup- I could eat it non stop- also corn on the cob was another favorite that I could not stop eating...yum those were the days---
As always your photos are just brilliant- the black and white silo is just beautiful-- they are like giants surrounding a farm. Do they still use silos in Michigan- there pretty dangerous !!

I like corn on the cob too...I got out of the habit of eating it when I had my braces on...but it is a nice summer treat.
I could live on soup. Its a great dish to have in the fridge for quick snacks!
I'm glad you liked the silo picture...I thought it turned out neat!
Yes, we still use silos here in Michigan. They can be dangerous, but if you use the correct safety procedures, they are a very useful thing to have on a farm.
When we are giving directions we always tell people to look for the big blue silos! They are a distinguishing land mark.
