Why Did The Beeb Move Blue Peter to the CBBC Channel

"When I've heard that that they're moving Blue Peter to the CBBC Channel, I was shocked. Blue Peter has been my favourite programme since I was three. Renna, my neighbour's daughter say that 'My mom and dad got Freeview and the channel's available. Would you like to watch an episode?'

I was very happy to hear that.

A day at the races

I was at the the Philadelphia Pro Cycling Championships on Sunday. Just like last year, it was full of  good racers and lots and lots of fans that are brewing it up while cheering for their favorite cyclists. (LOL) This is my third time seeing the race live (not just on TV) This year's race is one of the best planned out races yet, the amateurs went first, then the mens' teams and the women's teams went after. That race makes me just want to get on a bike again (since my bike is too small!

The Chooks of "Fresh Eggs Daily" (A set of fanpics)

When I drew these for some fellow Bloggers and their blog, "Fresh Eggs Daily" which is their blog to help jumpstart urban farming. Here are some of the Admins drawn as the hens that they are looking after.

Here's Yvette  as an Americuna (aka "Easter Eggers") looking after a chick that has hatched. (The chick's an Maran, the chooks who lay chocolate colored eggs) 

"I'm Yvette, I talk to the owners of backyard Hens and Roosters that are along the West Coast; from Oregon to sunny California. Yep, They are those owners out there and I'm glad to communicate with those owners."

 

This is the head admin of the blog and the Facebook fanpage of "FED", Lisa; drawn as a Buff Orphington (one of my favorite breeds!) watching some chicks for the day. (The chicks themselves are Leghorn and New Hampshire Red).
"I'm Lisa, and I know, that's, ahem, me watching over the chicks that we've currently hatched in last few weeks.
Check out our page on Facebook and also here on Blogger at fresh-eggs-daily.blogspot.com."

And lastly, there's Suzanne. She's drawn as a Barred Rock (another favorite breed of mine!) I wonder how she would balence that egg like that. Guess we don't know... "As the Mid-West Admin, They are plenty of backyard chicken owners, that's where I come in: I get to talk to the same owners and yep, have a chance to check some of the owners' eggs. Cool, huh?"

An Egg-citing Find! (LMAO)

April 6:

Nita Finds One Of Sharon's Eggs (and her niece!)

"There was this cute kid, Nita Rojas-Lopez was her name, who traveled from Philly to down here in Chester and finds out that my aunt, Sharon paints her own eggs (since she's a Easter Egger, she lays pastel colored eggs). 'So your tia paints her eggs? She's very talented!' Oh shucks, she was surprised."

(Sharon's niece)

"Oh, to anyone who celebrates it, Happy Easter!" -Olivia

The Egg Nogger (LOL)

This was put up on Dec. 12.

"As the timid Faverolles gal in South Jersey, I love this time of the year. Some of my neighbors would call me to make and sell egg nog, so they would help me pick the eggs suitable for the nog. Me, heh, I REALLY check the eggs, too.

Then, I would make the nog and then, it'll be ready just in time for X-MAS. 

Happy Holidays! (oh and don't overdo the egg nog. LOL)
