Porch Sitters

We spend alot of time on our screened porch--from morning coffee to schoolwork at the picnic table to drinks in the evening... The tin roof amplifies afternoon rain or Scotty the cat's ramblings as he chases something across the tin (he spends most of his time up there, away from the other cats, the dogs and the guineas that meander through our yard).

Joining us on the porch this week is our youngest daughter's newest pet, Tidbit. She "rescued" him from a 5 gallon water bucket in the barn where Chestnut (see post below) lives. Judging by how tough this bantam chick has turned out to be, I think that he was swimming in the bucket--not drowning as we thought... Tidbit loves to perch on the table while the girls do their math. He's also been known to sit on shoulders, in baskets and even to go to church...(just the birdhouse variety!)

We're working on a few new products: a soothing salve to match Amaretto Buzz Bar Soap (scented with vanilla & almond--YUM); a soft, dreamy floral as-yet-unnamed candle AND, because so many folks have requested it, a sandalwood patchouli candle. Check in at camptopisaw.com for more details!
