This is a "photo" of my farm in FarmVille on Facebook. By plowing, planting and harvesting I worked myself up to level 8. With gift sheep I now have 4 sheep! And today was the first time that I could milk my goat! When I click on the animals and click on 'pet' they give off their characteristic sounds which is very cute. The patches with stalks are raspberry patches behind which are patches with fairly grown wheat. The blue patches have rice growing.

A friend on facebook kept sending me gifts for a farm I didn't have yet until I clicked on one of the links and all of a sudden I had a virtual farm! That friend did the first chores on my farm. For weeks I didn't have the nerve to check out this thing called FarmVille. Until yesterday, Sunday, when I finally had enough leisure and was relaxed enough to look around and play a bit and I got completely hooked!
You can plant various vegetables and fruits which grow at a different speed and when they are fully grown you can harvest (which earns you 'coins') and you can buy trees, animals (which you can pet, move or sell) and buildings and make photos. The more experience you get the more things you can do. You can also give gifts to your friends. And you can win ribbons for your achievements. :-) It's really cute and I so love my new sheepsies!!! (I had to work myself up to level 7 in order to be able to buy them.)
