Say, now....won't all that ice on the trees purty?? And that cold snap made it hard on the chickens as well. Went to the henhouse to gather the eggs and they was all frez up. I drapped one and it shattered into little pieces! Have Mercy!! Why I hain't even seen Otis or Ernest T cuttin' thru my woods lately! Went down to the pond to catch me a couple a' bream for supper and mercy sakes, I had to come back to the house and get my axe to chop a hole in the ice so's I could fish! Finally got me a couple and brang them home, got'em cleaned and in the pan. I tell you one thang,.,,fresh fishes out'en yer own pond is shore better than them ones you gets outta one a'them fancy grostery stores what sells ever'thang from choklit covered ants to fried hoppergrasses!! Even seed a can of stewed Canary! Gotta go get another armload of farwood fer the stove. Startin' to cool off a little so need to stoke the far a bit and warm it up in here a bit. Y'all keep yer farwood handy so don't nobody freeze up now. S'pose to be a'gettin' warmer but be safe anyway!
