Adorable, indeed.

Thanks for posting the day-brightener.

I would like one too — not the earmuff, but the calf with the earmuff. :)

So if you get them used to potholders now, it will make cooking easier?

This could steer the whole industry a dairy good direction.

We liked oat straw. Not always easy to find but we did not need large quantities. It is softer and more absorbent than wheat straw.

NO.

A coworker knew I could thread a needle and asked me to repair his costume.

Took one look at WHERE the rips were and sort of kicked it back in his general direction with a firm ‘Not going to happen’.

“Must love cow muff” is a common requirement on FarmersOnly.com.

I got NO end of grief from my co-workers when I started dating Farmer Beau. They were all convinced I met him on FarmersOnly.com, LOL!

He was a family friend that I NEVER would’ve thought of as dating material. Ever! Nine years in, big fat diamond on my ring finger, a remodeled/modernized farm house and 160 acres to play on.

They had a great time making up jokes, but I’m pretty sure I won that argument. ;)

” posted about the solution HER and her aunt, Kim Ewers, had come up with”

Nothing weird going on there. The Aunt thought up the idea. The Niece who had the embroidery business sewed the product for her.

Also, goes for adorable human babies turning into TEENAGERS!

Far better than pussy hats.

The leftist cows will be wearing them soon.

My dad showed me how to tell if a calf was born too early in the year by the frostbite damage to the ears.

Will they be putting ear muffs on the calves being prepared for milk-fed veal?
