April 2020 Things with the letter C that pertain to the here and now

Chick Days It is chick days at most feed stores. I am not leaving the house so I won’t be tempted.  I do have an order due to arrive at the end of April.

Chickens  My chickens are happy that the snow is finally gone in most of the yard. They are happily giving me eggs enough to have us able to have plenty of egg based meals while we are safe at home.

There is a good article on chicken keeping during Covid-19 from Fresh Eggs Daily

Cookies~ I could really go for some warm from the oven chocolate chip cookies right now. The kids are enjoying the chick and bunny sugar cookies I bought from the store when we did our last grocery shopping before the Stay at home mandate.  It is going to be really weird when it is time to celebrate Easter this year.

Coloring  There is a lot of coloring going on at my house from the kids. I heard today is national rainbow day.
