It's Still Winter!
Have you ever noticed that as soon as Christmas is over,
stores and catalogs start showing spring and summer wear?
They call it cruise-wear or resort-wear....
as if everyone heads to a warmer climate after the holidays.
Well....not us,
not here at Bee Haven Acres.
No, we remain in our thermals, wool sweaters, hats and gloves
until the weather starts warming....sometime in April.
Not to be outdone by the goats,
our chickens had a bit of a fashion show, themselves, yesterday.
They refused to model resort wear, though,
and stuck to winter basics instead.
Modeling the latest in henwear are
Ivanka
and Natasha.
Many thanks to fellow blogger Anke of Our Piece of Heaven
for knitting these wonderfully fashionable scarves
for our turkens (Transylvanian Naked Neck Chickens).
Anke was amongst the few of you who thought that
our dear gals needed some warm neckwear for winter.
I think you may have found a niche market Anke....
You might be on to something here!
And yea, for not sending us any resort wear!!
PS...Hubbs thought I should call this piece "Hot Chicks in the Country".
Again, I repeat....this is a family rated blog.
