A Visit to Jones' Farm . . .








On Friday, Jim was off from work so we drove to our favorite local farm for some lunch and to pick up some Irish Soda Bread for Friday night's feast.  Jone's Farm is in Cornwall and is the best little place to visit for an hour or two.  They now have their cafe opened.  Not many food choices but what they offer is so good that you don't need a lot of choices.  

Outdoor patio covered in snow. 

These were our views from our table . . .


Some of last year's sunflowers.




 It wasn't just about winter.  There were some signs of spring as well!!




Jim ordered the fish tacos while I opted for the marinated eggplant, red roasted peppers and fresh mozzarella with pesto on a toasted brioche bun.  Absolutely delicious!! 

After lunch, we ordered our bread and some cookies and I took a few photos while waiting for everything to be boxed up.  



They have a wonderful gift shop upstairs but we didn't visit it this time around.  Instead we stopped to take a few more photos of the barnyard crew. 




There was so much snow piled up in front of the barnyard fence that I couldn't get close enough to feed or pet any of the animals.  Otherwise, I'm the first to put my hand in to pet them.  : )


Catching some rays!!


This beauty came over to the car looking for food.  Jim was not going to give up any of the Irish Soda Bread!!  : )




Here's to a very happy Monday and a very happy first day of spring!!  xo

A Visit to Our Favorite Little Farm . . .


A sleeping chicken.
Megan's favorite.
The day's pickin's.
A pretty window box on the barn.
So pretty!!!!





Looking so little in front of the sunflowers!!

A true sign of fall!!!
A goat with icy blue eyes!!  Kinda scary!!!
Table linens.
Perfect for our new front door!!
"Autumnal" linens.  I'm so happy I get to use that word again!!!  : )
Halloween earrings that Megan fell in love with except she won't let me take her diamond heart earrings from her Mimi out so I guess she'll just have to admire them from afar.  : )
She's not as innocent as she looks!!!!  : )
Needs no explanation.  : )



In the parking lot.
In the rear view mirror.  : )
Sunflowers that are starting to look a little bit tired.  : (
I've yet to see a cat when we visit there!!!  : )

Thanks for joining us on our visit to Jone's Farm.  When I told Megan we'll be able to go there whenever she wants to once we move she literally jumped for joy!!!


Happy Tuesday!!! ~ Wendy

A Day in Cornwall . . .




On Sunday, we met my mother for lunch in Cornwall-on-the-Hudson.  We hope this wonderful little town will be where we call home when we sell our house.  After lunch, we visited our favorite little farm, Jones' Farm, to see how the sweet animals fared the winter and to, of course, drool over their gift shop and baked goods. 





The miniature pony needs a hair clip!!!  : )

I cannot stop laughing when I look at this photo.  This goat looks like he's either smiling or possessed!!!  LOL!!!!!


This is Fern, soaking up the afternoon sun.  She keeps very much to herself, unlike the prior piggy, Polly, who I could coax out of her house with McDonald's french fries.  : )



 Tomorrow I'll show you around the bakery and the gift shop.  Lots of Easter goodies!!!!  : )


Many blessings for a very happy Wednesday ~ Wendy
