chickens
the portland city council is voting on the chicken ordinance next week, and i for one will be calling and emailing the councilors to make sure they do the right thing. i haven't decided yet if i would seriously consider keeping chickens in my yard, but i'd kind of love to have to option. wouldn't it be fun to have them clucking around back there? wouldn't it be nice to have cruelty-free eggs to eat most days? i've been reading books about chickens (this one and this one too, both christmas gifts). what i'm wondering is, who would chickensit for me when we wanted to be somewhere other than home? maybe the animal lover would do it? or the animal kisser, perhaps?

why didn't david kiss Lulu? also, would he kiss your chicken??
wouldn't the chickens get coooold?! we drove behind two different trucks full of pigs today on our way home from greensboro...so sad.
i'm positive that eventually he will kiss lulu.
i'm not sure whether the coop would have to be heated...? i think it might.
p.s. i am willing to bet he would kiss my chicken.
Have you read Barbara Kingsolver's "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle"? It'll make you want some chickens all the more.

no! but it is on my list of books i want to read -- i need to request it at the library once and for all! thanks for the reminder, as well as the chicken-related incentive.

Your reply made me laugh. I love your blog. I procrastinate getting busy at my job each morning by taking a few minutes to catch up!
