Happy New Year to you all!
It has been such a very, very long time since we updated the blog! Sorry about that! We both hope to do much better in 2018!
I (Louisa) will start by telling you about my kuku!
Kuku is the Swahili word for chicken!

Project Kuku |
In November I started a chicken project. We bought five laying chickens and Dad and I built a chicken house surrounded by a fenced in chicken run. The house has a hinged door to the nest box where I can collect the eggs from. It has a ramp so the chickens can get up and down with a door that we close at night.

The Five Chickens |
Sadly after a short time and only a few eggs, three of the chickens died of illness. After no eggs for a month, finally on December 28th, I started collecting eggs again! The two chickens are named Tangawezi ("Ginger") and Snowflake. They love it when I take them scraps of food ... they especially love watermelon! I am looking forward to buying some more chickens from our friend, Mama Minja very soon!

Yay for EGGS! |
I love collecting the eggs! I love eggs and especially making fried egg on toast! I also like poaching them in my little PoachPod!
How do you like your eggs?
