Have you missed me?

I just found out that I broke my RSS feed in January, so readers in Bloglovin and Feedly have a bit of catching up to do!




Here's what you may have missed.  I think its all fixed no and I'll stop fiddling with it, so you should keep seeing my posts again :)

    I wondered what had happened to you, Liz. I follow your posts in my Reading List in the Blogger Dashboard but they are all coming through loud and clear now :-)

    Oh I thought it was just me! I had to go physically looking for your posts, so I didn't miss any, thankfully. I don't know what RSS is, but I'm glad it's sorted anyway. I'm lurking here Liz, but sorry about the lack of comment from me. It's enough to turn on my laptop a couple nights a week, without having to find sensible words to put together; such is the busy-ness and then exhaustion of my life of late. Retirement is around the corner, and I'm dreaming of all the things I'll catch up on then.

Farm update - August 2017

Its been cold this month, and very nice to have the fire going every night.  Here's a photo of my boy in his cape, great for late night woofing at things.  Most of July we were either preparing for the butcher to come or putting meat away.  Its always a big job, but its only once a year, and its all done now.  My lovely neighbour came over to help, so it was fun to have the company and work together.  Taz was a champion once again as she helped us to move cattle in the yards ready to load for the market.  Gus is not at that level yet and had to stay home (he cries when he gets left behind, but he just gets in the way and scatters the cattle).  We have had a few sprinkles of rain here and there, but also plenty of cold nights, so the grass is mostly dead and dry, waiting for the warmer weather to revive our summer-active pasture.

Neem oil for insect control

** Sign up for my weekly email updates here , you will find out more about soap and our farmlife, straight to your inbox, never miss a post!  New soap website and shop opening soon.... I also make neem soap, neem insect repellent and neem salve, all available in my Etsy shop .** A few weeks ago now I was watering the garden just after dark, torch in one hand, hose in the other, when I was attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes (mozzies).  I could feel them biting me, but there wasn’t much I could do with both hands in use and I really needed to finish watering.  When I came inside I found that I had several bites on each leg between the top of my gumboots and the bottom of my shorts.  These proceeded to itch, swell and annoy me for several days. At this time of year, when the mozzies start biting, as I do have such a terrible reaction to the bites, I usually reach for my bottle of conventional insect repellent, typically containing DEET (N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamid...
