Sorry I fell off the radar for a few days- Producer Jack & I are heading back from the PNW after returning for a good friend’s wedding. She married a man from Malaysia whose best man is an international attorney and made the long trip to Portland. I was sitting next to him at the rehearsal dinner and told him I interview censored people on a podcast. He said, without my mentioning anything, “Your government pressures tech companies to censor people because if it silenced you directly, it would violate your Constitution.” While many Americans seem to think nothing’s wrong, people halfway across the world get it. Of course I then asked if he’d do my podcast. Ha! And he agreed. (Can I write the trip off as a business expense now?) Anyway here’s a picture of Jack crawling under the church pews and building natural immunity.

We buy a roll of hay every other week not so much because the cows eat it all but because King Peter likes a nice fluffy bed that doubles as a look-out station. Of course he and Tod end up urinating and defecating on the hay which makes it less than ideal for the cows. We are working on putting up yet more fencing so the boys don’t have access to the cow hay but for now Pete is living large.
We have several refrigerators and freezers (as do most farmers), and for a while, the goat milk and eggs were in the same one. Recently however, I have turned the temperature down several degrees so it is barely above freezing so as to rapidly chill the milk and keep it very cold in order to extend its shelf life. However, as maintaining our fridge temperature is not a perfect science, we have had several moments of discovering frozen food and liquids in the fridge - never the milk - but for instance, celery juice. Then we discovered a frozen egg. I have since separated the eggs into a new refrigerator so they are no longer with the milk. We had fun peeling the frozen egg and examining it! Our dog, Zinnia, was very happy to help taste test. There is no life like the farm dog life! I did do a search and learned that it is safe to eat an egg that has frozen after thawing it, though not recommended if the egg has cracked.
