Hi
« on: June 09, 2010, 08:27:13 pm »
Hi, I'm not sure if I'm a smallholder or part of a smallholder commune. Seems an odd thing to say but I live with my parents and my sister and we all have certain specialities. My sister loves her poultry and is particularly green fingered, as is my Mum. My dad is very much a hunter/gatherer and loves wandering round with his shot gun bagging pesky pigeons who are after our peas. I seem to kitchen bound, turning our harvest into preserves for the winter via jam, marmalade, chutney and stewed preserved fruits or to sell/exchange with our neighbours. I's love to be more crafty but I seem to struggle awfully, any tips would be great.

Welcome to the TAS forum, milady ;) ;D ;D ;D
I make my own greetings cards and do a wee bit of scrap booking - have my daughter's 40th Birthday one halfways planned.  I think you are definitely part of a smallholding!
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age
