Welcome to the very last Farm Friday for 2017! I’m going to leave off the year with a bunch of photos of animals being tortured by being forced to don holiday attire. Enjoy!

Annie the reindog

Lily the reluctant Chihuahua Christmas jester (she was trying to chew on the bells)

Sterling looking stoic as usual in his Christmas jingle collar

Quila looking longingly out the window. Wondering why her parents make her wear humiliating holiday jingle collars.

Sterling actually not looking pissed that he’s wearing a Santa hat!

And one final, random cake picture. This is a Grapefruit Cake made famous by the Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant. Read the story in the link, it’s great. I got the recipe from American Cake. My horsey bestie made it for a foxhunt brunch last year and I was extremely skeptical of a grapefruit cake. I mean, I love grapefruit, but in a cake? People. It is TO. DIE. FOR. It is SO good. I made one on Christmas and it is as heavenly as I remember. So go get you that cook book, because it is super fun to read and cook from, and make this cake. Right now.

The most amazing cake ever invented.
