oh C-h-i-c-k-e-n that's the way you spell chicken!

that is a camp song aunt kathy taught me when I was a short lil one in pigtails helping her make chocolate chip cookies..(can you tell she worked at summer camps? there's a chocolate chip cookie song too- but i'll spare you that one for now.)

Today was an 11 hour day. cooked breakfast (mexicanish black bean and egg burritos) helped prep lunch, then all afternoon was spent moving the kitchen back in to the kitchen...and it looks great. We made it just in time. a 13 person timber frame class starts today and a 13 person solar class starts tomorrow...so we had a huge welcome dinner tonight, and i helped heidi get dinner together too. She was quite stressed out- we had a bit of our first kitchen disagreement this morning- she doesn't like the way i make quinoa.. and that's fine- i didn't take it personally, it was just a long morning.
breakfast tomorrow then I'm off the rest of the day, Sunday and Monday.

other exciting news, we had 5 chickens and a rooster donated to us- so we snuck them in at dusk while everyone was asleep so we'll See what happens tomorrow morning and they think "who is this stranger sleeping in my bed?" we now have 14 hens and 2 roosters...if they don't get along though we'll have 14 hens, one rooster and a tasty soup.

happy weekend!
