Wonder if I could convince a city person to pay extra for my farm raised Turducken??
They'd probably buy it too.

I've never tried turducken but have seen it. Seems like a whole lot of work unnecessary work.

Throw the duck away it's only to keep it juicy with all its fat

Pardon my ignorance, but what's a "turducken"?

A chicken stuffed in a duck which is stuffed in a turkey and cooked for a feast

I saw it done on a TV cooking show. Way too much effort!

My brother used to wonder how people stuffed a chicken into a duck when he was younger. It was the funniest thing.

I don't butcher and eat my own . They have names. But I would gladly buy processed chickens from someone else even if I paid them with even half the meat. Same with any animals . I just don't want to see them.

With lemons, make lemon aid! With snow, Snow cones.

I will take big snow or little snow. As long as I don't have to go to work. It's okay. I lived on LI NY for 23 years and I loved the blizzards . Florida didn't have any . Now I'm in southern Indiana 20 minutes from Louisville KY and we get some days , not a lot that stay 19-20 for a few days but never get anymore than 2 inches.
I don't know on the map storms go either north of us or south of us. Shoot, if I'm going to have cold weather, I want snow. I'm retired. I have a lot of time to enjoy it.

I want it to snow where I have to tie a rope between the house, coop and barn and not get lost. Such fun!

I wanted to go see a parcel of property that I'm interested in buying today, but it's raining, and pretty cold here too. The Mountain roads may be closed due to snow.

Where is your sense of adventure?

From what I am reading online from several legitimate websites, this isnt over by a longshot. Sure, the "plan- demic" will end people will slowly get back to work, but the food being dumped, wasted, or slaughtered because of "no demand" will cause a bigger food shortage and a huge food insecurity surge.
Dairy is being forced to dump milk.
Beef cattle arent going to market. Or if they are, the beef farmer isny getting anything decent for price because the packers control the market. They make hundreds while the farmers take a loss.
Vegetable crops are being plowed under due to no demand or no one to harvest them.
Meat chicks are being destroyed because the facilities that process them are closed due to sick workers.
Smithfield has closed two processing plants due to sickness.
Its all about CONTROL.
Control the food, control the people.
The government announced it will be buying excess food from the farmers, tho, and distributing it to food banks. Sounds socialistic doesnt it?
Seed is hard to find.
Some states have banned buying seeds or vegetable plants because its "non-essential". Its not essential to grow food for your family? Hmmm.
Next will be a "miracle" vaccine to eradicate this virus. Be wary. Theres more to this vaccine than they will tell you.
Not to mention that the ARAs are working to take away your pets and any and all animal products from you( dairy, eggs, meat, wool, leather, fur).
I may sound crazy to some. Others not. I see whats coming and its not good. But....people will be brainwashed into thinking its ok, for the best. Young people will grow up thinking its always been this way, not realizing how much of thier freedoms were gladly handed over to the government willingly by their parents.
Getting off my soapbox now.

They can airlift food all over the world. Food? It's very very sad that we can't put our overedges to good use. I've seen some selling their veggies car side . (6 feet and mask). Milk can be made into cheese which stores well. Vegetables and milk are super duper absolutely positively essential for health.
