It has been really great to see the positive response this series is getting. I love getting the chance to share my passion for raising Chickens and ducks in my Modern Micro Homestead. They are a big part of my life, as they are the first task I complete every single day. I have toContinue reading “Greetings from The Coop #4”
Duck Eggs vs Chicken Eggs – what is the actual difference? In general the size is the most obvious difference, however it is not always the case.

A full meal dining on a variety of appetizers is a fun change of pace for weeknight dinners and it is a great time to try out new flavor profiles with yourContinue reading “My Appetizer Collection”
We have a mixed flock of backyard egg laying chickens. Which means that every so often we get an over abundance of eggs. It goes in waves with the seasons and with the types of meals we are making around the house. Every time we fill up both of our egg containers (about 4 dozen),Continue reading “Classic Egg Salad”
Rice bowls are perfect for weeknight meals. You can layer up lots of flavor with ingredients you likely have on hand to make a hearty and tasty dinner.
