Well this isn't exactly a wish. I had a dream last night that my tomatos had ripened
(still small & green )and were in the shape of hearts. Wish on ladies. Kitty

Ten things I cannot do without. Hmmm...
1. My horses and dog.
2. My manure fork and Garden Way cart!
3. My TroyBilt tiller.
4. My little Stihl tiller.
5. My internet!
6. My KitchenAid mixer.
7. My JennAir stove. It has a grill on the top for grilling foods, and I can take it out and drop in a huge griddle that's half the stove. The oven is convection, and can be used as a food dryer. Glass top modules are easy to keep clean.
8. My old Burpee hand cultivator.
9. My tack.
10. My support staff: My vet, my animal chiropractor (and my chiropractor!), my farrier, my hay guys and my feed guys. And my hubby for being a good sport through it all.

Ten things I cannot go without on my farm:
1. Morning walk (one mile) with DH and Puppy-Dawg first thing in the morning, drinking from a steaming mug of fresh percolated coffee.
2. View from my kitchen sink window; rarely an hour goes by without seeing wildlife of some sort.
3. Garden tools, trimmers, and cart.
4. Fresh cut arrangement of roses, flowers and or plants brought inside the house.
5. The sight of new baby calves in the field.
6. Bales of hay.
7. Well earned aching muscles after a long day working on multiple projects.
8. Hammock under the oak trees.
9. Cooking equipment.
10. DH and Puppy-Dawg - I know I already mentioned them in the first item but they each deserve their own billing!

Hmmm..., let's see
My rubber muck boots
Zout for stains on shirts
My long handle small shovel for transplanting
4 prong rake
pruning shears
hoover floor mate - no carpet to clean, just all hard surfaces
flipflops
Advil - pain in the knees
Don - my hubby - he is always good for a laugh
My 3 kitties - they are a constant source of entertainment
I could probably add more, but this will do.

If I could add one more thing to my list, it would be fresh cherries. I just bought a big bag of them, and haven't been happier!

Very fun!
1) My family 
2) My animals - horse, cattle, rabbits, dogs, cat and guniea pig and the joy I have when I'm with them. (whoops that numbers over 100 animals)
3) My rubber boots - no wonder it's raining today.
4) My roses
5) The ranch
6) Quiet evenings on the porch with my husband in the swing watching the world go by at the ranch. I'm missing that this weekend to suppliment feed a puppy.
7) All of my gardening tools
8) All of my cooking equipment
9) My grandmother's things - two family antique dressers, and her sterling silver, some of which are family heirlooms
10) hunting quail and pheasant with my DH and the German Shorthairs
11) Crocheting
12) did I mention my family?
Ok, so I went to twelve!

My pots, pans, baking tins, balance, cookie tins, cookie cutters, mixing bowls, wooden spoons, measuring cups and spoons, rolling pin, baking sheets, spices, flour, sugar... Is that 10 yet? Can you see a trend here?
I'm downsizing for the summer and I have to somehow survive in a kitchen a THIRD of the size I'm used to! You can't open the oven and the fridge at the same time the place is so small! But it's not for that long, I'll live.
