Birthdays, Bunnies, Cod Liver Oil....Oh My

My little Brucie isn't so little anymore...On September 8th he turned 9!  We celebrated as a family, skipped homeschool and played video games and ate cupcakes.

We spent Saturday September 10th with Grandma and Grandpa B at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in WV at a rabbit show.  The kids were so excited to see them and the bunnies.  Addie insisted we needed to take one of the homeless bunnies home...I said we would need to talk to Daddy about that one!

Ever heard of Weston A Price?  In our house, we follow his dietary recommendations (and love the book Nourishing Traditions).  The "must take" supplement of the WAPF is Fermented Cod Liver and Butter Oil.  So I finally went to Green Pastures (http://www.greenpasture.org/public/Home/index.cfm) And ordered us some, in chocolate.  It is NOT a tasty supplement and the only way i've found to choke it down is by quickly putting it on my tongue and taking a huge swig of water.  Even then the fish after taste is atrocious!  I just hope the health benefits are worth the gag every morning.
