Hi everyone!
I’m totally new to this Steemit world, but I hope to pick it up real quick! I just want to do a small introduction to you guys, since I will be creating posts about this things I like to do. So if you follow me, over time you will learn more about me!
OK, lets get this started!
My name is Liana and I’m 28 years old. I live in this crazy country known as America, though I am born and raised in Canada. The6ix represent! I have been living in the state of Kentucky for what will be 3 and half years in a week or so. I won’t lie, it does not feel like it has been that long. Lol. I live here with my husband @ericrumor, and he definitely makes it more tolerable for me to live here.
Reading is something that I enjoy doing most of the time. I am a big fan of books in the mystery/suspense/thrillers genre, though I am fairly open to anything that I find interesting. My favorite author is Linwood Barclay.
Baking is another past time I like to do. I try to always find an excuse to be able to bake something. Lol. I will probably share what I make on here. I usually find things on pinterest and try to make them myself.
Music and movies are that something I enjoy as well. Otherwise it gets too boring sometimes without music for entertainment!
I think for now I will leave it at that and I will leave you with a picture of my charming betta fish! Time to get back to my maple black tea. So Canadian right? ;P
p.s Throwback to myspace times for making validation pictures! xD
Thanks for reading everyone.❤️

Hi Liana ,
Even though I am new to this platform myself, I welcome you and look forward to all the topics you mentioned.
I am a gardener and enjoy foraging in the garden this time of year for things to cook with or just eat raw.
This year we are growing a lot of corn not only for our own consumption, but for the chickens. Last year I husked the older corn and dried it and used it for treats for them throughout the fall.
Our garden is organic and everythig tastes so good.
Thank you for the welcome! Having a garden seems like it would be pretty awesome. I remember when I was younger when I went to Europe to visit family they had a farm and I would feed the chickens the dried corn. It was pretty cool.
and I thought I made that up...drying the corn and feeding it to the chickens.
oh well, we've been retired now for almost 10 years and all we are doing is new to us in some way, especially raising a few chickens the last few years. They are so interesting and entertaining but it has been a learning experience after city living.
and this steemit experience seems like a wave of the future come to us in our old age.
I'm pretty sure they were dried because they were hard kernels and i use to rub the 2 together and they would come off. How long have you all been farming for? I've seen a few videos online of chickens and i agree they can be very funny.
Yes, once the corn is dry it is easy to rub off the kernels.
We have been living on this land, 1/2 step from heaven, for about 10 years now. I was looking at old pictures the other day and I can see we have done a lot to develop the land with trees and two gardens. Most of the usable land is planted now.
Thats great though to be able to have your own garden and all. I don't have much of a green thumb lol but I would like to be able to have some sort of garden one day!
We never really had a garden until we retired. This is like our real job now that we are free to do what we like.
Isn't retirement great! lol =D I'd like to see the garden some time though.
We joke about a Better Homes & Gardens visit to take pictures because it isn't that kind of place. It's a funky, used and usable place, producing good food and growing year by year as more fruit and nut trees are added, and the soil in the gardens is improved.
But we are getting old and it needs weeding and straightening out. The chickens have a great place to peck around but there are predators. They take their share so we keep getting new ones. Have yet to have one of them make it to 2 years old. At least we are feeding the wild life.
meep
Lol
meep
Welcome mate; I like your betta fish :3
Make sure you get an avatar up though soon under settings, it's really a must.
My betta is pretty cute! =] Thank you for the welcome and I will for sure get that avatar up! I just need to get a good picture lol
Hi! Man, isn't moving to another country super weird? I've done it three times now and I'm kind of glad to be done, though I still wish I were back in Germany and not in the US. How do you feel about Kentucky so far?
I really love your beta fish! He's absolutely gorgeous! I've been wanting one for a while, just haven't got the umph to do it! So busy with other things. Haha
@farmstead It sure as heck is a crazy experience, though Canada are fairly alike in some ways, and not so much alike in others lol. Kentucky is not all that bad of a place but I do love the city a whole lot more. Are you originally from Germany?
You should totally get a betta, they are super easy to take care of. Ours is pretty spoiled lol.
Noooo I'm from and currently live back in Oregon on the west coast. Haha I wish I was from Germany! Sure would make it easier to get back there!
But now we have a home on 20 acres, a dog, two rabbits, 21 chickens, four ducks and three geese... hahaha I mean, I got responsibilities!! I'd probably have to save up for a betta and nice accessories. Maybe Steem can help me with that!! Haha I really wish that they could live harmoniously together, it'd be grand to have a tank full of gorgeous bettas!
Ohhh gotcha. Oh man 20 acres, you've got your work cut out for you. haha Are your geese Canadian? xD I've read somewhere that you can put 2 female ones together. Also if they're in a fairly large tank it's ok. I have a baby tank so only one fish for now. It has a shrimp to live with but I think it killed it... =| lol
Hahaha noooo they're illegal to keep! Bwahaha though, I've learned they're considered a neusance!
Yes, 20 acres is a lot, but most of it goes unused so far. :)
I'm sure having two females together is fine but... they're definitely not the "pretty" ones! Haha
I'm sure one or two cross into your land. God they're everywhere! lmao but the ducklings are SO cute. :3
Ugh I know right, I wish the male bettas got a long well D= there are some very cool ones, that have really fancy and flowy fins.
Where I live is real dry so they tend to pass me by and head to the agricultural fields where water is more abundant! I see them fly over a bit! :)
Welcome to steemit community.

Good Luck
Thanks so much! I really look forward to making many friends here!
Hello . My name is Timmo. I have been here a few weeks and am loving the platform. My page The Southern Va Homestead is dedicated to chronicling my work as my wife and I remodel a home we recently purchased in Southern Virginia and establish a homestead there. I am an independent creative writer as well and feature Poems, Short stories and opinion pieces that I write periodically. I also write and produce a series titled EMP series which tells an ongoing story of a group of Christians stranded at a church after an EMP attack on our country renders all electrical systems inoperable. I narrate the story into a slide show and produce them on my Youtube channel. I have started posting them here as well. Thanks for allowing me to introduce myself and my page to you . I wish you the best here and look forward to viewing your future content also. If you check out my channel and like the content please consider following my page. If you do I will follow you as well.
Hi Timmo! I'd love to see how your home turns out! As for your story, it sounds very intersting! I'd love to read it sometime. I will surely follow you! :) Thank you for introducing yourself here.
