Updates from Ryder Family Farm
A southern Illinois family farm- sowing the seed of tomorrow, savoring the fruits of yesterday
Yep, St. Patrick’s day is today… Just realized this. Here is a little flashy, flash from the past for you:
When I was in 6th grade I was going to this girl scout party for St. Patrick’s day. They were having a contest, “wear the most green and win”. My step dad and I planned to go and win.

Saw this commercial on tv the other day, laugh my butt off! Enjoy!
This one is for Janelle! She posted about a silly commercial that aired in her town and encouraged her readers to share commercials from their town. Since my satellite dish can’t find a signal (it’s covered in snow and I am too darn cold to climb on to the roof to brush it off) I […]
Okay so this goes along with the vibrator talk talk that is going on in my blogging circle these days. It all started with Missburrows observing that people are just too weird about the word vibrator (Yes you did start a revolution!). People posted comments saying vibrator and so on. Good clean fun right? Then […]
… smash them into a sorry pulp, take some photos and blog about it. Things are crazy right now (that is quite the understatement)… Our living situation saga just keeps getting more and more interesting as the days pass. Back on January 15th 2008 I wrote “You broke your toe? Want to buy a house?” […]
I just found a company, Trusted Tours & Attractions, that offers popular sightseeing tours and vacations online. I read that you could win a hand held GPS just by signing up for their online newsletter so I signed up and began browsing their available tours. I found a tour of San Francisco that reminded me […]
I was browsing Bix this morning checking the status of my contest entries and I found the funniest video: [youtube 5P6UU6m3cqk Greatest baby laugh] This baby just has the best laugh, it made me laugh and it got me to thinking about how important it is to have a good laugh. It really can improve […]
I could really use my readers support today! I made a video for a contest by Packet8/ Mobile Talk, you can view the video in my earlier blog post. I really need support in the polls for the contest, if you visit the contest page you can vote for my video and help me win […]
While visiting other blogs tonight I was rather amused by the creativity and crisp lyrics of the commercials. As a trained vocalist I was struck by the enunciation of the words. Also, the music sounds nice and it’s one of my favorite holiday songs. If you need a smile or laugh watch these, can you […]
I went out today to so some shopping, specifically because I needed to get a chainsaw for my boyfriend. No, I am not killing him.. It was one of the gifts he wanted so he could chop wood and all that good stuff. I was paying with gift cards I earned from gather. Anyway the […]
My boyfriend, N, brews beer as a hobby. We have had several memorable beer brewing experiences. The first batch of beer he brewed blew the bottoms out of the individual glass bottles after bottling. Beer oozed all over the kitchen. Apparently too much yeast was used. Then next experience was homemade root beer soda. This […]
[youtube 6F7jJaUqFLY Video about “passing gas”] I thought this video was entertaining. It made me laugh! I found it over at Youtube.com. It’s from American Legacy Foundation® and Ad Council. What do you think?
Okay one of our cats (Hailey) has some sores on her chin that Nathan calls “Feline Acne”. She scratches them because they obviously bother her but she doesn’t stop scratching when it hurts her… The result is a yowling cat who is scratching herself bloody and will not stop despite the flowing blood and pain. […]

Waking up too early then not being able to get back to sleep. Waking up frequently throughout the night. Waking up feeling un-refreshed. Various things can cause […]
