Been working up "on sale" ground beef, Xtra lean! On sale way less than 80%...so, I have some fresh, packaged in flat 1# and/or pre formed burgers. Saved $2.50 a #. Saved some out for a meatloaf tonight. Haven't made one in a while, nice change.
Should be last of winter meat stock ups...
Congrats on that new grandbaby!
Your chickens are lovingly spoiled. 🤭 Mine won't get to see that set up --- nope. They go into their appointed barns or not 🤷. But our weather much milder here.
Sorry you guys couldn't get the updated blood work wanted. Guess they only want to monitor their...
Free apples make good everything! :lol:
Read today that they've produced a yeast that can be made into the casein of milk -- for vegan cheese!
NOT gonna ever replace Mother Natures own fresh milk from my goats, & others cows! Dang. Like cloning. 🥴 Vegans -- just don't eat cheeses!!! :old...
Cold start and cool day. Significant north wind. Mostly an inside day due to 20 mph winds. I did load up all trash and took to dump. 👍👍 Good girl! 🤣. Thinking oven meal tonight.
When the grasses die in the fields you "find things" :lol: clean them up. You do fence work, feed lots of hay. My area gets very little snow (thankfully!!!) and normally only a few days of hard freeze. If it happens, you break ice, tote hot water...grumble!
Always keep a couple weeks of...
Depending on type of corn you can make corn meal & flour for the house. 👍 Extra chickens could be butchered if you don't need eggs, or if old hens. We know those make the best broth, chicken & dumplings, etc. 😊 Yeah, I know you know. 🤣
I hope you get the pain managed. :hugs :fl
Unloaded the feed from truck, fed, watered & inside to eat -- yesterday. Early due to rains coming & dental appt at 9:30, then to work. It finally rained, light at first, heavier overnight.
Home today. Having coffee and will venture out in a while -- once the sprinkles stop. Whatever...
Are you turning you whole garden containers? I remember you had a big garden in pics a few yrs back. All gardening is work but, containers do better with weed control usually. 🤷 I'll do a couple this spring & compare to work with old style.
It's nice to have extra to share -- especially if the folks appreciate the gifts. I've had neighbors who not only appreciated but truly needed the extras. So I share with people, trade with friends when we have a crop not produce or only want "a few". And I have animals that are always...
Liver & onions! Haven't had in a while but, like it. So calf liver thawing 😁 prob rice to go with. There will be enough for two meals in this package. 👍 Means I'll have a no cook day soon. I was thinking ham or chicken/dumplings....then saw the liver, decision made. Ahh, love freezer...
With meats I'm always suspicious of a bit of fat getting onto rim during processing...as they vent. :idunno it's often a mystery. My table stays full of jars during canning, while waiting a couple days for positive seal checks before storing away. Phobia.
