So the last few days my farm life obsession has gone into overdrive. I basically have spent every free second stalking reading the blogs of people who are living my dream and vicariously taking it all in through their posts and pictures:) Aaaaaaaahhhhhh. I have a very vivid imagination so I feel as if I have actually been on vacation! Haha.
In my quest to ‘study for my future’, I have stumbled across some amazing new finds. I thought I’d share these great blogs with you guys too. Maybe they will see that I have written about them and invite me to their farms to ‘live the dream’ for a week. I see it now…..My family will pull up in an RV in their dirt drive way and they will put us right to work. We will cook, share recipes, I’ll learn to can and jar from an expert…they will teach me the ins and outs of running a farm, ways of living off the land. We will sit around a camp fire after the kids crash, tell stories, I’ll make the hubs sing (come on now!! Gotta pay my way!!) We will laugh and cry and by the time our stay is complete we will be life long friends, “No goodbyes new friend. Only see you soon.” Hop in the RV while holding back tears. The kids wave out the back window as we roll away…..
Alas, I am in Los Angeles with the sound of yet another police siren going by….sigh. Damn you farm that calls my name in the night. Hahaha.
So here they are:
Chickens in the Road -my new fav… Suzanne is an amazing writer (books, columns and her amazing blog.) whom I have come to adore… I’m sure you guys will too:)
A Country Farmhouse– Trina lets you follow along as her and her husband completely renovate their gorgeous farmhouse. Great design blog. Plus she has boy/girl twins…how are we not already best friends?
White Flower Farmhouse– This a blog about a store owner in Long Island. When said farm is in possession, I will clear her shelves clean. Get your stock up woman. I’m comin for ya!!!
Nicolelbates– a true day to day life on a farm blog. She answers the questions I had been asking:) Love…
