Feeding chickens

It's what happened afterward. ^_^

My aggressive rooster began attacking me. I swatted him away from me with my tripod as I held Leslie in my other arm and tentatively sprinted for the house. I wish the neighbors hadn't been in their yard. Oh, well.

This was my most fun pic yet. The animals love Leslie! The chickens, normally shy, came over to him immediately.

Also... I have a Twitter now! I'm so excited >> http://twitter.com/ophelias_dolls

Your chickens are very good-looking. It is wonderful that they were drawn to Leslie. I am sorry Rooster decided to be aggressive toward you. Never mind those silly neighbors!

Thank you! Rooster doesn't like me much, but I don't care-- I love him anyway. My chickens have grown up to be all different breeds. They are an amazing mix. They are not allowed to have babies though. Four chickens is as many as we can handle!

I can't believe it. It looks like the rusted gates to The Garden of Virtues are going to be laboriously parted by small articulated resin hands after all once more. I am glad that I am buying Lanie's Angel, but I am also a little sad. I remember disposing of Dresden along with my other dolls. I was in a vicious rage. I hesitated over Dresden's prone form, thinking, goodness, even I don't think of her as a BJD, is this really necessary? And then, blindly, cutting the strings. I can't believe I am actually talking about this now. I have not talked about it before. I regretted losing her afterward, because I did not really need to part with her. She was a sweet, special presence, a little woman. I have kept all of her eyes, wigs and clothes. Of course I will never forget the moments in which I divested all of my BJD's of their clothing, wigs and eyes. The other day Henry came around with a little velcro he had found and I grew faint, knowing that it had come fro...

It was 1846.

"The wind was hard and fast, howling against the immovable keep. Within lights glowed. Like beacons the panes of illuminated glass dazzled my eyes, so cold I thought surely they had frozen open. I knew not myself. I knew not my hands, which hung as exanimate wraiths from my arms. My clothes, dull rags, twisted around me, and it seemed they made no difference against the ice and the wind. I felt myself drawn into the warmth of the keep. I was past gratitude-nay, not past-but I knew that I had been reduced to a bestial state. I was too ashamed of myself and my imposition to look my benefactor in the face."   It was thus that we found "Caroline." I saw her in the St. Vincent de Paul resale shop and was captivated by her forlorn looks. I gathered her limp body in my arms, and Leslie and I brought her home. In the sewing room I removed her wig, dismantled her limbs, and after eyeing her stuffing decided to discard it along with the wig. I took her body pieces ap...
