23° in Nadadouro 9° in Portreath
After a rather long absence [sorry], i'm back sharing a little bit of Silver Coast life with you lovelies. It's been a hectic few months since Christmas. Every little thing seems to take so much time and money, neither of which has been in abundance. However, the results are mighty fine - well for us anyhow, more to come later.
We've bought some chickens from our local market! The Portuguese don't have anything like our concerns for animal welfare, so we felt we were liberating these three. Our last girls were named after Dave's twin sisters, but this time i wanted to honour the reggae queens i've danced to my whole life so world meet our 'Three Little Birds' - aka 'The I Threes' - or just plain old Rita, Marcia and Judy. We've had them for over a month now and as yet no eggs to be seen! I just can't wait for my first home grown spinach and parsley omelette! Yum x

DesignerThis blog was born when I left the UK and started a new adventure on the Silver Coast of Portugal. Being settled on the salty shores of the Atlantic is just idyllic; love, sun, sea and smiles, the perfect life for me.
Hi Bo,
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the chickens - they look super. Have they laid any eggs yet, yum, fresh eggs.
A couple of threads on chickens that you may find interesting on an Expat in Portugal thread:
