Oh, I am like so GAME on that KIND invitation!

This interim period between the
GREEN and the
WHITE is driving me batty.
I can't say I don't EAT much but I certainly can do dishes...KP (kitchen patrol) duties, etc. I'd love to have other's cooking to sample, so won't offer to cook. LOL Since you let the c@t outta the bag earlier...oxtail soup would be my first major wanna, eh.
You got room for two humans, three dogs, a bakers' dozen sheep, two llamas, & multitudes of land/waterfowl?? I have contemplated skipping winter one of these years and caravanning to some place having summer when we are having winter.
Have a girlfriend who stayed a while in Australia and talked to me about when they moved to a different cattle station one year...she luckily had birds (and ACDs)...but thought how strange it all seemed to people as they stopped to refuel and all the barnyard noises that were heard!
Staying put for season rotations...they can be like being pregnant...no way outta it unless you want to be knocked out & c-sectioned...and then you need to recover from all those belly stitches!

BTW I love how you managed your earlier "fishing excursions" with your grandparents. I think being trapped in any small space with OLD people that do not enthrall you with good conversations (&/or lots of good food!) would be agony (aka
boring for a kid as you so nicely explained). As I kid I would likely take some babysitting money, buy some fish and give it to them..."Can we not go fishing now?"
Fishing company is very specially chosen. I took a girlfriend from school out once...river fishing with worms...she would not bait her own hook and had me crossing the river back and forth each time she lost it--which seemed to be quite often. I finally asked her, "Don't you like sun tanning?" and thankfully, she chose to deepen her tan and I got to concentrate on actually fishing for a while.
Lacy is officially entered for her November dog show (Gr Ch Vucko and owner are going Sat & Sunday, not sure if Parker is entered in conformation but she's doing conformation, beginner rally & obedience at the US National Specialty--Go Parky Go!)...going to deworm the sheep for the second time this weekend (just figuring out the doses for each one now) and I have even started on bagged rations and some lawn ornaments too.
Cleaned Emmy and Lacy's pens yesterday and today, I just hauled out the Halloween bus treats (no candy, always toys and games and stickers and things) to go over and see if I need to top anything up for the big day on Tuesday.
See NO dairy and meat together would be something really where I would fall down.

A no meat pizza, no meat lasagne...because I don't know if having no cheese on pizza or no cheese on lasagne makes them pizza or lasagne...course vegetarian pizza and lasagne exist. I think the no dairy plus meat is the one item that would be strangest to me--that and no pigs or shrimp. I am always dumping dairy into our diets in combo with meat to ensure bone density for old ones such as me. Need my calcium and meat fix.

Our swans are not kosher, owls (kinda yuck!), flamingos (what a strange dish that would be!)...vultures, ostriches, and happy to see ravens and crows are not kosher!
NO insects...oh darn...like I prefer those...supposedly our cereal and breads have lots of insects in the flour making process! Creeping things like weasels, lizards, things like snails and snakes...good by me not to eat too!
Do you get into trouble if unintentionally, something not kosher is consumed by you? What can you do to make up for the error? Your intent was good but mistakes can be made completely innocently.
Finned fish with scales could be that sharks are unclean for some (and not like I eat shark thanks!)? and then caviar from sturgeon is variable...but salmon eggs would be fine. My head swims on these interpretations!
I DO like that no special way of killing fish with scales/fins is allowed.
Four ruminants not allowed...camel (but maybe allowed??), hyrax (had to go see what those where!), hare (what about a rabbit, is that a hare?), and pigs. But that is too simplified...according to this link!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosher_animals
Ten ruminants allowed...ox, sheep, goat, deer, gazelle, mouflon, antelope, wild goat, roe deer, and ibex. Again, all kinda open to interpretations as per that above link plus it seems the definition of some of these animals is very subjective.
All I can say is thank heavens something like salmon or trout could be served to you and your wife. I would be so paranoid that I unwittenly gave you something not proper...
