We adopted an 8 year old girl......cow!

[Guest guest]

Hi all--I just tried to get caught up on over a week's worth of

messages. Life has been too busy for computer time between our new

flock of sheep (being raised for people's freezers this fall), our

chickens (75 more arriving in a few days and 50 awaiting D-Day the

following week), and our garden (in a few minutes of picking today, I

filled up a 5-gallon bucket just with yellow squash! There will be

that much more tomorrow, too.) Then, last week, for our 28th wedding

anniversary, my husband said we could buy an 8 y.o. Amish Jersey cow!

Now I don't have to parse out our precious bought (undercover, since

it's illegal to sell raw milk in TN)raw milk, and we can make kefir to

our hearts' content! This is important to us, since we are only using

kefir grains (1 T 2X/day) as a probiotic for our two with autism. I

just thought y'all could rejoice with us for our new family member.

BTW, we named her " Annie " since the Amish just called her " Jerz " ,

which is pretty much what all Amish Jersey cows are called. There's a

piece of trivia for you! :-)
