As for the farm life, things are going well. The seeds are coming in and with the seed companies totally booked it is a challenge to get more orders in. I double booked some seeds like onions because I don't want to end up with none. On Friday I will start seeding onions and celeriac. Seeds and potting soil are ready to go!
I enjoyed my winter at home with community game nights, movie nights, skiing with Steve on the back fields and occasional sledding parties with the neighbors. I also took up running the back fields to stay fit. I miss seeing my family and friends in Germany. I am calling them one by one to get the news.

 High Tunnel - snow built up |  Driveway is done |
We have so much snow! I had to shovel the tunnel free. Snow had backed up the sides so the roof snow could not come down anymore. Fortunately I had the sides 1/2 rolled up and I shoveled the snow into the tunnel and rolled the sides up all the way to let more snow fall in. I can use the moisture on the beds. First I had to shovel a path to the tunnel. It was nice and warm inside the tunnel. The driveway is a community effort, it takes about 4 hrs to get it all shoveled by hand.
Goldie on the left, Carol on the right
The cows are patiently waiting for me to come and milk them. It is school spring break and Steve and I discovered that if we turn around 180 degrees in bed we get full sunshine by 7.15am in our faces instead of 9.15am. We call it our beach and sunbathe till we hear the sweet honk from the school donkeys wanting to be fed. Goldie is filing out and laying down much more, no big udder so far. Come end of April I will be very busy with two cows to milk.
I am working on getting recipes for next year ahead of time to not get stressed when writing a newsletter in the middle of the season. So I am trying new recipes, so adventures after years of just putting together what we have. Last week we made cabbage rolls and they were a hit. We had the vegan ones with tofu, the dairy free/gluten free ones with lentils and eggs and the egg/cheese/bread ones with home made ricotta. It was quite the production.The cabbages were very large~10lb and had nice large leaves.

Recipe: Cabbage Rolls
Break off and steam in a covered pan over boiling water for 5 minutes:
10-12 well shaped cabbage leaves.
Set them aside to cool while you mix up:
1 cup cooked rice
½ cup minced onion
Cup ground beef or tofu or bread crumbs
4Tbsp.minced parsley
1tsp. dried savory
1 beaten egg
Lay a cabbage leaf on the counter, rib-side out, and put 2-3 tablespoons of filling into it. Fold in the left and right sides of the leaf, and then roll it up. If central ribs are too stiff to roll, trim them back so they are not so thick. Place cabbage rolls in a 9x9-inch pan, seam side down.
When the pan is full, pour over the rolls 2 cups of tomato sauce and ¼ cup Parmesan cheese or other cheese
Bake at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes
Let me know what you think.
