For all celebrating the resurrection of Jesus today, here is one of my favorite hymns. My grandmother told me once that when she was babysitting a 3-year-old Alison on Easter in Pennsylvania many years ago, she caught me sitting very close to the TV, intently watching a program that seemed intense for a child. She said, “Alison what are you watching?” Apparently I was watching an Easter history special. I turned to her with equal intensity and replied, “What’s the matter Granny? Haven’t you ever heard of the resurrection of Jesus Christ?!”
“I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting?
Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.”
—“Abide With Me” by Henry Francis Lyte
I took the kids peach picking at Graham Farms in Umatilla, Florida. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it! They’re the best u-pick peaches this side of heaven. Mary Graham explains in this video the “insider” way they cut a peach easily and quickly. Don’t forget to grab your fermented cod liver/butter oil and wash it down with all that peach juice!

This is a short clip from Sunday's show in case you didn't make it to the end. We had a mama fox and 4-5 kits move into an old gopher tortoise hole, about 20 yards from the chicken coop. Every single farmer I talked to told me to shoot the foxes as they're notorious chicken thieves. I chose a different route. Thankfully I have a very loud dog and lots of energy from all the good nutrition in Green Pasture's fermented cod liver/butter oil blend - so I was prepared for taking on the fox - and didn't lose a single chicken.

When we got our first set of chicks two years ago, the plan was pretty boring. Gather our own eggs right outside the house and never run out. Little did I know that chickens are wonderful babysitters, dress-up partners, art class teachers, and non-stop entertainment! We love the eggs, but as a parent of young kids, I love how much learning our kids do with chickens - while also having a lot of fun!
It does take a creative brain to think up all the ways to play with a chicken - which is why the omega 3s in Green Pasture’s fermented cod liver/butter oil blend will ramp up your chicken playtime ideas! I have been taking it for 15 years and I credit it with helping me end a chronic battle with cavities. It’s got vitamins that are important for brain, gut, hormonal and bone health - and it’s a food not a supplement. Ditch the cheap fish oils and try it.
