I really thought with my absence I would come back to find readers had lost interest and followers had moved on but that wasn't the case at all which really made my day I have to admit. I am so greatly appreciative of every person who has stuck with me and shown me friendship and support over the last year on this blog with their wonderful comments. I am also thankful I have an outlet to share our farm and goat herd with others, so I don't completely annoy my husband talking about the goats. I thought a good way to show my appreciation would be with a big THANK YOU and a Giveaway!
What is the prize you ask? Two large bars of handmade Shiloh Prairie Goat Milk Soap, straight from our farm and made with milk from our dairy goat Dym and her two daughers Penny and Rose. There will also be a 3rd surprise bonus included. I would tell you what it is but that kind of ruins the whole surprise part now doesn't it? Now pay attention because the important instructions on how to enter for a chance to win are below.

Hi I'm a new visitor. But would love to try the soap. I did not know you could make it with Goat Milk. Have a great day.

yay goat soap!
My baby sister Alix said I should enter, so here I am. Kiss the goats for me!!
My Nubian wethers goat, Brownie, says that he wants to know how you get soap from a goat. He's always concerned about things like this. I'll have a talk with him and explain that it doesn't hurt the goats.
Please enter me in your giveaway so I have a chance to win the soap.
Glad your internet problems are fixed.
Glad to see you back up and running!

Glad you are back!
