From what I’ve seen driving around this area there are more goat farms than cattle these days. Lots of horse ranches too.

Goat cheese is one of my favorites. :) I wonder what happened to that goat. LOL

I’m wondering if any of them sell the milk. I have an ice cream maker I haven’t used for years. I guess there’s never enough time to do everything.

Today is a work day and I have both an eye infection and what feels like a kidney infection this morning. One of these days I may have to give up wearing contact lenses.

Next week I am going to have to look for some source of cooking without electricity. Last week our power was out for most of the day and I found that I had tons of food but it all needed to be cooked or at least heated up and my cheap little gas BBQ would not light. Then I couldn’t get the little propane can off either. I remember the last time I did that when it was hot and the thing almost blasted off the connection. :)

I look forward to your posts later granny when I get home. Considering how things are these days, like the Chinese buying our homes now [thanks for the ping] I like hearing about how things were many years ago and your stories of your life are the best.

I am going to have to find out from you one day how to make goat cheese. Before April we are planning to find a place with 2-5 acres. That’s all we can afford. But, I have already put my request in for milk goats. It’s been a laughing matter around here for a couple of weeks but I’m determined to learn to milk a goat and make cheese. I too love goat cheese, but never had the chance to learn to make it.

Are your feeling better?

Did you remember to drink cranberry juice for the kidneys and bladder problems, it does work.

I had a good post to you almost ready for mailing and the program crashed....

Before I got back up, Scott came and I have my computer back, feels slower, LOL, but you know how old memories go.

It will take a few days to get caught up and tell stories again.
