Did you know?

You can make chicken stock from the carcass of a whole cooked chicken. Okay, you probably DID know that. But here is something I never knew....

The jar on the left is my first batch. Once I strained it, I threw everything back into the crock pot (minus the stock I had drained off) and added more water. Cooked it overnight again and got a second batch of stock!

You can see it's not as dark but still lots of nutrition and yummy flavor for making soups, rice, quinoa, etc.

Pretty cool!

More art

I'm uploading these so I can pin them to Pinterest and eventually build up a following on etsy- that's the idea anyway! Oh and here's a view of the mess I make when I paint :)

This one is sold.

She shed

Now has windows, door and deck!

Sold!

I need a place to post my art work...

So for now it's going here. It's fine to put stuff on FaceBook now and then but I feel like I'm asking for compliments (which I'm not) when it's on there. I just want to document it online for future reference so here are the latest.

This one already sold today-

This one is still in the shop. I like it but there could be more contrast.

And another one of these small guys :)
