Deborah Jean's Farmgirl Friday post this week is pretty spectacular. She has a very special farmgirl story that includes Megan Rae of MaryJanes Farm. She's the MaryJane's daughter. SO, I am going to link up Deb's original Farmgirl Friday post to share with you. This one is just too good to miss... I'll link up with another post next week featuring my ever growing apron collection...
Welcome back one and all to your favorite farmgirl blog hop! The place where we round up the best of the best of farmgirl/guy talents from all over the world... Did you know we've had farmgirls link up from faraway lands such as Norway, Denmark, Australia, and England to share their can-do-it- iveness...!
This weeks mystery FEATURED FARMGIRL hails from the good old USA... She lives in Idaho, works on a farm as a B n B hand, a magazine stylist, writer and editor, party planner, creative crafter and last but not certainly least, she's momma to her two darling daughters and wife to her hubby Lucas. Anyone want to take a guess about who our mystery farmgirl is? .........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Oh, alright. I'll tell you who she is! Our FEATURED FARMGIRL IS sister # 2, the lovely and talented Megan Rae of MaryJanesFarm and MaryJanesButters daughter! But, this isn't the usual ' virtual ' feature where we exchanged emails and photos... NOPE! Megan and I met ' IN THE FLESH for late afternoon Tea on Cape Cod this week where she and her family were visiting for a family reunion! Ya see, Megan and I have a common bond ( besides being in love with all things MaryJanesFarm) she's a beachbum at heart too, having spent many special summer times as girl on Cape Cod with her Grandparents and now with her family and extended family.
Here we are just before we had to say goodbye after a long afternoon Tea at my favorite Tea Shop on the Cape... The Dunbar Tea Shop! Meg is just a cutie-pie inside and out! We had fun sharing all things family, BEACH and naturally a little MaryJanesFarm too! It was Meg who I' kept in touch' with over a several month period about how I might possibly contribute to MJF one day...We dreamed up the MJF Beach Farmgirl Blog idea together and when the time came for them to add new bloggers I was on Megs list!
I think I really pestered the heck out of her but she says I finessed my way in! See how nice she is!
Well, in between breaths we managed to eat too! We decided to try the Dunbar Tea Sampler with tea... Wanna little finger sandwich or some vanilla cake? The scones and jam were so yummy served with a dollop of whipped cream!
When our tea came we both filled our teacups to the brim making it hard not to bring attention to ourselves with all the giggling and trying not to spill, not to mention the slurping...Meg said, " oh well, we're farmgirls. "I said, " the Queen WOULD NOT be impressed. "
How do I feel about my sweet friend Meg and our ( all too short) tea time together?
Okay... sniff, sniff... time for the hop!
Bring it on farmgirls!
Here are the rules for the Farmgirl/guy Blog Hop!
1.) Write a post about your farmgirl lifestyle and brag a little about your farmgirl talents while your at it! Share what being a farmgirl means to you. Include lots of photos of your farm, crafts, animals, quilts, home decor projects and thrifty make overs, your backyard garden, chicken coop, recipes, studio or workshop. You get the idea!
2). Leave your entry in the Mr. Linky space to your Farmgirl Friday post.
3). Please include the Farmgirl Friday button ( or link back here ) in your post and remember to share this hop with all of your blogging friends!
Thanks to all who enter each week and for everyone who visits!
Have a great week!
and Farmgirl dreams... Heidi
