We milked our first goat six months ago and got about 4 ounces a day. Today, we needed two large mason jars to contain it all. For those who know the triumph, I don’t need to say anything else. I have no experience with farm animals other than my 32 year old horse. I had merely looked at goats before 2023. When we moved to Florida there were 2 goats on the property so I decided, why not? I’ll just figure it out. The art and joy of “just figuring it out” are nearly lost on us in this technocratic world, but I challenge you to find something that intrigues you, that produces something tangible, and go for it. Making bread. Sewing. Woodworking. Raising chickens. Mountain climbing. Painting. Just figure it out. I promise it’ll be worth it. And if you’ve already done this - let me know in the comments the most “random” trade you’ve conquered with no prior experience. I’m off to have a cold glass of raw milk! 🥛
We put the green donut on two of our bucklings (Peter’s sons, Butter and Floppy) as I’ve yet to sell them and they’re getting to be breeding age. Don’t need them making babies with their sisters. I was actually surprised by how little the boys seemed to care, especially once they were no longer restrained.
Lily and I are doing our first farmer’s market next weekend, finally selling chocolate after all these years working to get the recipe just right! What do you think of the banner design for our tent? Do you like the period after the phrases - or should we take it away so it just says “No Sugar” instead of “No Sugar.” I’m leaning toward no period. Let me know what you think!
The arbiters of all things “misinformation” say they’ve done a “manual review” of my 9-ft weed video and confirmed it is “not suitable for most advertisers.” I went from censored over doctors/scientists to silenced over my goat pasture maintenance. SMH. 🤦🏼♀️
Jenny McCarthy is on talking about her son's autism and vaccines - I am right after her.
