It's wonderful that Biscuit has a buddy, and Momma can be there to keep her eye on both of them. That sweet lamb has really worked hard to be there, and there's no better place for Momma to live out her golden years than at Punkin's Patch. Perhaps Momma will become a new card-carrying member at Del Boca Vista? I had to laugh... in the nearby town of Sherwood (Oregon) about 10 miles from where I live in Lake Oswego, they have created a new subdivision called Del Boca Vista with 13 homes on 3.5 acres. I guess folks won't have to go all the way to Florida to live the dream "where living has no limits!"<br /><br />Thank you for the new puzzle!Lisa Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325602859641802032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457557437300345355.post-73740835562073352902017-06-11T03:40:02.310-05:002017-06-11T03:40:02.310-05:00Love all the Pratchett books, in fast we even own ...Love all the Pratchett books, in fast we even own them all. The Aching ones are my faves, along with the other witch ones. We have a black australorp hen here called Nanny Ogg. :) Next of my faves come the night watch ones. What I like about sire Terry's writing is he puts enough reality into his fantasy to keep it grounded. It is no surprise that my bro-in-law who is a copper loves the night watch books the best. T.L.

I still like Biscuit and Muffin for the lamb's names. They are both have such little round tummies, like they've ate a lot of biscuits and muffins (ok-cornbread), and are so lucky to have been adopted into the Equinox Farm Family ~ <br />:-) Congrats on the new and wonderful additions!

The youngest witch in the bunch was Margat Garlick - her mother was a lousy speller. She wound up as Queen of Lancre in one of my favorite Discworld books, Wyrd Sisters.
