Well ok then! I am gonna give it a go tomorrow! Seconds or uglies? That isn't too hard to say....wonder who in my family I can con into coming along and propping me up so I can face someone while asking for a deal. Why do I feel so small asking for that? But hey, I am not asking for a deal...

That's how I felt Kel! Heebie Jeebies! If nothing else, it was fun :)

I have thought about that, I am a terrible negotiator though. Maybe if hubby went with me :hide I guess they'd rather not bring stuff home right?

It is Friday and I made my illegal transaction :lau I am sad to report that dear Ellie is not related to our believed OFG. While she is very kind and I have no problem overlooking chicken poo on clothing....her house was um, in need of shoveling out. In a big uncomfortable I couldn't bring...

Ok, let's plan to 'meat' up! :lau

Thanks everyone, I love the feedback. Free, great input thank you :) Gina.....sign me up! Can I come with? So you go to the fair and pick out a couple of animals that you are interested in and then go try to buy them after? Maybe I can get the family to go in on a steer...although it would not...

Well naturally I am looking for a royal pig :lau I guess my first priority is that it is not commercial meat....from there it gets a little blurry. I know that cows should not be fed grain, only grass. But I really do not know about pigs....don't they eat everything? So from you farmers...

Wait.......you had a beer for breakfast? You are my hero! And I thought pie for breakfast was impressive :lau

How are your babies this morning? Sorry to hear about your losses :hugs

I know that most of you have the room to raise your own animals, but sadly I do not. I am exploring the option of buying a 4-H pig for the freezer. My question is I am worried about how it has been raised. I went to visit a woman who had goats last year and the conditions were pretty poor. The...

Whatcha gonna do with all those berries? I just bought some new canning jars, pectin, pickling salt etc.....this will be my first time using the canner since the summer before last. I am a little nervous. I'd love to do some jams, pickles, meat, beans and tomato sauce. I am going to have to...

Great pics! Love the MGs they are one of my faves :thumbsup

76* here today....my plants are all happy and growing by leaps anid bounds :) Hope y'all have nicer weather today!

Yep, what Pat said. You really need to be careful with store bought ground beef.....it really has the potential to be bad news.

Exactly! Hahahahaha I love it :) she is gonna be a great lady to get to know :weee Who knows, maybe I have found a way to dip my toe back into the SS lifestyle without bringing home a goat or making my family move to the country. Ellie is going to be full of great ideas :ya

Good morning OFG! Guess what? I found your long lost twin! She lives right here in So Cal :ya And I get to meet her on. Friday :woot Check out my making cheese without a dairy animal thread....it'll be like looking in the mirror :lau

I have confirmed it....she IS related to OFG! Read on..... ( I asked her is she was part of the urban backyard farming program that she mentioned and told her I'd like to make chevre) I can not wait to meet this woman! Hey Dace! Yeah, I founded it! Hahahaaaa! Its looking to provide people w...

Thanks for the links mamaluv :) Gina...he is in North Park, which is not to far from me. I am down on the 8 everyday taking my son to and from school anyway. I am dying to meet him, what a great sense of humor.....just the kind of person I'd like to give my money to!

Good point Free....I called my 4h connection and left her a message. Se had mentioned having me over sometime to milk and make cheese. Her goats don't seem very clean though.....very dirty and smelly and probably too many penned together. I did talk to a gentleman this afternoon, his DD makes...
