My first lil’ producer has crossed some big milestones this trip. Lily lost her first tooth which made for great photos on her adventure as flower girl at our old babysitter’s wedding! She showed all the residents at our friend’s assisted living community where her “moving tooth” used to reside. She is growing up at lightning speed. She also happened to try low-temperature pasteurized, non-homogenized milk last week and told me, “Mom, this cooked milk is gross!”
We are back to gardening after a year off. The reason? Paralysis by analysis is the homesteader’s worst enemy. So far the best adventures we’ve had started small with no expectations but curiosity.

Sometimes we have an enormous amount of foam leftover after filtering our milk. I read that this is caused by milking fast and straight down - and maybe if we tilt the jar and slow down a bit, we’d have less air in the milk. But I’m tellin’ ya folks, 5-year old Lily is the fastest milker this side of Heaven and I doubt we slow down anytime soon!
