About
gathercreekatearthlinkdotnet
I am a wife, mother, musician, quilter, baker, bookkeeper, parish secretary, and now chronicler of my backyard flock of chickens. As a vendor in the Chapel Hill Farmers Market I get to share my creative work every Saturday morning during growing season. I bring fresh baked bread, eggs, CDs, quilted and embroidered items, figs in the summer, muscadines in the fall, and mushrooms after a rain. I delight in my chickens and enjoy telling folks about the amusing things they do or the adventures they have had. I started writing the stories down after I realized that there were layers of meaning to be found from the life and times of my backyard chickens. Someimes you can find God in the smallest of places in the most mundane events. When that happens I say "Well, howdy there."
