For the past few weeks Shorebird and Goat have been living in a bit of a construction zone as we refinish our bedroom furniture. This piece was so massive and heavy that rather than try to move it somewhere and stain it, we did it in place.

We’ll have a full post on the whole process once the work is complete.

The entire game map is peppered with this sort of goat-approved nonsense, if you’re wondering.
I failed to take a picture that did justice to this great recipe. But once you read this great harvest recipe, you’ll see why I can’t wait to make this one again. Read more
Breaking out of Oregon:
Police thwarted by goat stuck on roof who “only respects one man”
A routine patrol took an unexpected turn for police in Gresham, Oregon, when they spotted a goat stuck on a roof. Read the full story…
The news is that the goat respects even one man. Most goats respect no one. (Or in the case of this goat, only respects Shorebird.)
