As for the dehydrator, I have just bought paraflex sheets to have a go at dehydrating liquids, but not used them yet. When I bought my dehydrator it was about the same time of year so I tried it out on apples and bananas, just to see if it worked. I wouldn't be without it now....even use it to rise bread and make yoghurt!<br /><br />LOUISETTE, thanks.....just one of those rare times when I am outside at dawn instead of being inside doing house jobs! <br /><br />LISA, I cannot understand why Boolie does not feel pain because the tumour is getting quite big, but he is still high spirited which is the main thing. Hope your son's new glasses are still intact!Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235143664894609891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833961486558166275.post-40633438930026776112016-01-19T20:44:37.741+01:002016-01-19T20:44:37.741+01:00Yes chickens do their own thing.

I had thoughts of making some pumpkin and apple leathers today, then realised that I did not have the paraflexx sheets so that was put on standby. I just made soup in the end. I am looking forward to trying it out. I have two drawers of frozen chillies that I am planning on dehydrating when I feel a bit more energetic. I need the freezer space!

Be glad to get into next week and have that imminent storm behind us! <br /><br />JESSICA, bless you, and wishing you a happy New Year!<br /><br />DIANE, I saw on the weather charts that the 'tempete' conditions are likely to be from us upwards, covering most of France and the southern part of the UK. Hope it is not as strong a storm as what they are saying it might be! Did you bring your dehydrator back with you?<br /><br />DUTA, oh dear, hope that the red sky is a signal for a drop of rain only! I think that music and farming go very well hand in hand. Both are very productive to us in different ways, and both enable us to have a good soul energy!Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235143664894609891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833961486558166275.post-23760480138427408002016-01-08T13:06:43.321+01:002016-01-08T13:06:43.321+01:00Red sky as I was always told, is a sign of an upco...Red sky as I was always told, is a sign of an upcoming war.<br />Are you sure farming and not music is your true vocation?
