Good Morning

Good morning Blog,

The Orchard Goose happily completed two orders yesterday and now has orders for more bunting, mini bunting and Christmas bunting.  Its all about the bunting at the moment.

I am formulating some new ideas for dolls, oven mitts and a signature fabric goose as well as Christmas goodies.  Just got to wait for the delivery of some more fabric before I can start.

I am also thinking of running a giveaway competition but got to decide what the giveaway will be first??.  (and make it!!)

On the smallholding the lawn around the house is incredibly long so Mr Goose is about to fire up the ride on mower to tackle it, and I have the glorious job of mucking out all the birds.  I have used the rain as an excuse for the last few days but no avoiding it this weekend.

We have been undecide about when to harvest all the apples in the orchard.  Its a fine line between under ripe and sour and ripe but all fallen on the ground and eaten by geese, sheep and all the other feathered friends we have.

Last year we were too eager and harvested them too early, so we are trying to hold our nerve this year, praying for no high winds to send them all to the ground.  Fingers Crossed.

Our lovely neighbouring farm have put some beautiful calves in our 5 acre field this week.  Its so lovely to see them, instead of the millions of rabbits that usually have the run of it.  One day I will look up to see my Jerseys in there, but not for a few years yet.

Enough ramblings for today, I had better get some work done.

Have a wonderful weekend
The OG
