Jen at Notes from the Heartland and I took a little road trip out to see Miss Effie on Sunday! It was her birthday and she threw herself a shin-dig. Complete with homemade cake and ice cream (that was all it took to snag me).
PSA: If you are local, from Iowa or driving through Iowa or any nearby state, do yourself a favor. Visit Miss Effie’s. She’s awesome. Her flower farm is Ahhhmazing. The views, to die for.
I can’t wait to go back and pick flowers. You get to bring home a bucket. Isn’t that awesome?
So, I was glad to finally get out to see Miss Effie’s farm. It was all I dreamed it would be.
Truly magical.

What a fun day, those flowers are gorgeous. Still working on B with the Chickens, he still says we’re not zoned for them. Zone shmone. Get some chickens please so I can live vicariously through you.

How cool. That is one fancy chicken! Have you been to Key West? The decedents of Earnest Hemingway’s chickens run free all over the island.

I was there too – until my brood decided it was naptime and therefore got all cranky on me. 🙁 Hope you got some carrot cake … it was deeee-lish!!
