Reed Coverdale of the Naturalist Capitalist Podcast is coming on to discuss this situation he tweeted about regarding Tulsi Gabbard, in which he wrote “My advice is to never sacrifice your time or money for a politician unless you’re ready to be a brainwashed sycophant.”
“I volunteered for her campaign in 2019 and 2020… I probably met her 30 times…Over two years ago, she promised to come on my podcast, but never connected. Last year, when I was on Jeremy Kauffman’s campaign, she came and campaigned for Don Bolduc, a warmongering Republican. I called her out on social media for her obvious hypocrisy. Then this year she was supposed to come speak at Porc Fest in NH, so they made me her liaison. Then when she heard I was her liaison, she first requested that it be someone other than me, then pulled out of the event altogether.” QUESTIONS?
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.
Everyone who has chickens knows the struggle toward maintaining enough egg cartons, always asking friends to save theirs and bring them by. I was just thinking how I’d need some more when I drove by unknown trash on the side of the road. It looked like it might be egg cartons so I pulled over and sure enough - yes! 🙌 It was worth all the stares I got. Has this happened to you? What is something you needed and fortuitously found?
