Buy props used in MaryJane’s books and magazine!
All proceeds (minus shipping and packing) will benefit www.firstbook.org, a non-profit that provides new books to children from low-income families throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Here’s how:
MaryJane will post a photo of the prop and its cost here along with a few details as to its condition. The first person to call the farm and talk with Brian, 208-882-6819, becomes the new owner of a little bit of herstory. Shipping will be either USPS or UPS, our choice. No returns.

We need your help!

We’re almost out of bumper stickers (I’d rather be glamping), so it’s time for us to come up with a new design for next year’s International Glamping Weekend. Molly came up with nine glamporific renditions for you to choose from. Help us decide! Pick your fav from our nine selections:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

My favorite is #2. What’s yours?

farm romance photoshoot

Here’s what we do in the middle of the day when it’s 98 degrees out.
What I didn’t capture was David off to the right waving his hat to keep Emma looking forward. This will be one of hundreds of pics in the next book I’m working on, Milk Cow Kitchen. Stay tuned for this pic—Emma with lace halter looking at herself in a mirror. (It turned out ADORABLE!) The next time you see one of our farm romance photos, consider the “village” it took gittin’ ‘er done.

Be a pretty, polished (& healthy) chick!

The weather around here has been topping out at 98 degrees. And we’re not talking about the late ’90s boy band, though they’d match my fever pitch right now.
(I know, I know, I have no room to complain when the midwest is hitting 118!)
After my crew and I finished my glamping book, my daughter surprised all of them with a gift certificate for a pedicure but I guess she didn’t think I’d want one. I took it as a sure sign I should follow suit when I received an unexpected package of sample polish last week from Chick Nail Polish.
I called around town and found someone who could give me a proper pedicure, something I haven’t indulged in for a couple of years. Who doesn’t want to sit inside an air-conditioned room and get a lil’ pampered?
