Maybe spring has arrived today, or at least we have seen the sun at last (still a cold wind off the moor). Even managed to dry some washing. The ducks love the fact the day is getting longer and are really starting to lay well. This means that i need to get out and sell as many as possible! Now we have finally got the eggs in Waitrose i am off round Farm shops and deli's to find more stockists. Still selling quite a number by post and we seem to have perfected the delivery without having scrambled. Riverford farmshop are now stocking them which is a great start!
Second sign of spring must be the Venus company (fantastic ethical beach cafes in South Devon) are starting ordering lots of organic chicken again. It is encouraging that they still have the ethics and confidence to buy organic.
We are also getting a goose egg a day from Lucy (8 year old's pet goose)that he loves fried to prove how much he can eat. I have heard goose egg, chips and champagne is the best meal ever, but yet to find the champagne!
World book day this week, which means mum has got to think up some costumes that will survive a day at school, at least it's not going to school in their night clothes day or some of the other great days we have endured!
