The Happy Vegans!
The first full week of the new year was all about the FOG that forgot to leave! Fog, fog, fog...all day long, with the exception of a few hours here and there. It was really nice to take advantage of the new woodburning fireplace and keep the house nice and cozy. The donkeys have their own wood project going on...since we expanded their corral around the barn, they now have access to some firewood that was stacked there and have been carefully "debarking" all the individual logs. Which is great - because then the logs are easier to burn in the fireplace! They also have almost completely "debarked" a fallen tree in the corral. So they've been busy boys, and they seem to really enjoy the work! They LOVE to have a job to do! In other exciting Lazy Vegan news, I have decided that I needed to eat more kale...so I've had kale every day of 2011 so far. I like it best finely chopped up in salads. We'll see if the "daily kale" gives me some super powers by the end of the year!

The donkeys were well-behaved for the visit. Once again, the whole day was enveloped in fog!

The boys work very hard at their debarking job. They take it very seriously.
Paco tries on my favorite hat!
He is such a good sport...and I think he really enjoys wearing hats! But since it is my favorite warm and comfy hat, I'm not about to give it to him.
Weegie is a little leery of the whole hat thing.
You can see how much new space they have at the back of their barn now!
Heading for bluer skies!
