I like cottage cheese. My daughter grew up hating it. Her husband hated it too. Then they had to buy some for a recipe and tried it. Hey Mikey, she likes it. So does he.

I’m also a huge fan of long term aged cheddar. I prefer at least four years. It’s sharp and has a bite that will draw blood.

I’ve had as much as eighteen year old cheddar.

“I’ve had as much as eighteen year old cheddar.”

Jealous! When Beau and I were dating, he bought me 7-year aged cheddar - I thought I had died and gone to heaven and that I’d better hitch my wagon to this Farm Boy immediately, LOL!

He also bought me my own splitting maul (his was way too heavy for me) and a $37 dollar 7-pound organic chicken (we treated it like a Turkey for Christmas Dinner) and he took me to a farm that showed us how to make yarn from the sheep shearing to the final roving and spinning. Wow! Now THAT is a DATE to turn a girl’s head! (Well, a Country Girl. A City Girl would’ve bailed well beforehand, LOL!)

He STILL won’t let me get a milk cow, though. Having grown up on a dairy farm he INSISTS that he is, ‘saving me from myself’ - which he probably is. ;)

But, Dang! I still want a milk cow! Even just a mini-Jersey or two! I could make my own cheese and butter. How awesome would that be?

*SIGH*
