Domesticadia

In the space between exciting explorations we fill the gaps with stuff we find interesting. Here are some things we've been up to inside:

 I've found a use for some recycled plastic bottles; Terrariums! 

All the plants inside were collected from the yard. 

Throw in a couple of other doodads like shells or crystals and Voila!

We've also been cooking of course. Ash loves herself a good baking session, here's a result for some from scratch french twisty bread that was delish:

 

And I have my own culinary stylings, check out meh mushroom n' onion ramen:

mmmm good!

Now onto something else that makes for a great time sink.... Foster Bunnies!

These big fluffy bunnies were rescues, one from a petting zoo that stopped running and another from a girl who was moving but didn't want to take her bunny with her (she also hacked off all his beautiful silky fur.. its in the process of regrowth now). The white and pink one is a neutered male Anogra named Albert and the black one is a female named Onyxia, Did I mention they are really large? In one of the pics you can see our female cat Blythe for size comparison, and mind you, the rabbits weigh a bit more than she does at around 10-15 lbs each!

If all goes well the two above will get to stay with us long term. *crosses fingers*

This little girl below however is up for adoption through Rabbit Advocates. She came from a dire situation where a boy was trying to trade her on craigslist for cigarettes and the boy's father was telling us if we didn't take the rabbit he'd rather kill her than have her stay in his house. She just got spayed and will make a 

really sweet pet for someone.

This Friday Ash and I are going to the Rowena wild life sanctuary in The Dales OR to get briefing on their volunteer opportunities. They have an excellent bird of prey program that the volunteers get to participate in where you get hands on experience with owls, hawks, eagles and the like. I'm quite excited about that prospect and hopefully we can meet some new friends there as well!
