Well, we’re packed to full capacity here. What with the turkeys and the quarter cow in our freezer, all the milk and eggs… we have officially run out of appliance space.

We are very fortunate. We have 4 free range turkeys, a freezer full of grass fed beef, loads of farm fresh eggs and so much raw goat milk that we don’t miss it even when the cheese spoils. If this is not wealth, then I don’t know what is. To quote my grandfather: “We might not have a lot, but at least the food is good.”

In this season of Thanksgiving, we have a warm home and good food… a decent portion of which was raised feet from our front door. What else could we want? Perhaps for next year’s garden to go better, but then I suppose there’s no sense in getting greedy.
