Welcome to Cranky Puppy Farm!

This blog belongs to two Gen X-er's smackdab in downtown Kansas City where we've been renovating and decorating two old Victorians built in the 1890's. Our life is filled with 3 demanding Pomeranians (1 of them cranky, of course), honking cars, noisy neighbors and the hustle and bustle of city life but we dream of the day when we can move to our 40-acre farm and hear nothing but the wind and the cows next door. Until then, we're chronicling our triumphs and mishaps here as we try to garden and preserve on 2 city lots, raise chickens, and learn all those things we should have learned from our grandparents. Welcome to our world - we hope you'll stay awhile!

Vote for Cruella: It's Chicken Madness Time!

Wednesday, April 10, 2013


Let's have a little fun, shall we?  The folks over at Backyard Farming have come up with a fun contest called Chicken Madness where you can submit a pic of your favorite chick and folks vote on the chicken that they like the best. Well, I just couldn't resist entering that picture of Cruella sporting the latest in feathered friend eyewear.

Cruella asked me to pass along this message to her would-be constituents: "Bawk!  Bawk, bawk, begawk. Bawk baaaaawk bawk chirp begaaaawk bawk.  Bawk bawk."

Translated, that means "If I win, you'll have a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage.  And I promise to balance the budget, pay off the debt and procure world peace. It's so easy a chicken can do it."

Okay, well maybe not. 

But we sure would appreciate your vote in the Madness Challenge for Cruella.  The champion of the challenge wins a copy of "Your Farm in the City" by Lisa Taylor.  Since Cruella can't read, I'm sure she'd let me borrow it.

Thanks for your support!  You can vote for Cruella here.

Go Cruella!
