I am enjoying the cow talk. I grew up around cows on my grandmas farm but never was super involved. She grass finished beef cattle for a friend. The milked in the past but stopped before I was even born.
The family friend rents the pasture now that she has passed so it's fun to see cattle out in the pasture while we are down there working on the farm. We still do the crops with a little help/custom farming from the neighbor since it is about 3 hours away. We run about 180 acres.

We hope to have a few cattle some day....

I think I see Rosemary, 2 kinds of basil, an oregano, and maybe a red romain? I'm only so so on my herbs

OKAY, Your knowing that has demanded the immediately removal from the Redneck Club. You can reapply for membership when you realize there are only 3 spices in our world. Salt, Pepper and Ketchup.

If I have to like ketchup to be in the club consider this my official resignation. I hate ketchup!
One of my culinary pet peeves is people who, when they are served a meal, instantly douse it in salt or pepper or ketchup. Give the chef some credit and at least try it first!!!

Double doo doo credit if they do it then complain that it's too salty or tastes bad...

Oh Boy, this is a problem, I do know a few that substitute mustard as a spice, while not as tasty as ketchup and far less spice like than ketchup, I suppose we could allow you to have affiliate membership. but it would require a majority vote of a quorum of all rednecks at the next convention.

I am one of those people that like to add my own salt, pepper and ketchup as required. However, I normally take a taste to see what I need to "fix". Taste is such an individual thing I have never considered it an insult if someone adds something to anything I cook.

That might be something to do with it. I am pretty sure it had to do with the ground they are on, not necessarily cutting but is too rough and abrasive.

How will it heal? Do I need to treat it somehow? I found some threads on scaly leg mites, do you think they have anything to do with it?

What about hot sauce?

Bravo! Everyone knows that ketchup is a vegetable!

And I do like ketchup when balanced with mayonnaise as a condiment for fries.

Does anyone have a plan for it?

You could check Pintrest, but it is just a pallet that has been lined with black garden fabric, then you fill it with soil and stick the plants in.

I agree on your last point. Everybody likes different saltiness or spicy levels. As long as they taste it once first

Maybe it could help my cause the my DW likes ketchup enough for both of us. I may get some residual points? She orders her hamburgers with ketchup on them then adds more at the table

Hey cluckies: I made a patio table for my chase lounge chairs. By pulling pallets apart. It took some time and patience for the pulling apart of the pallets. Lots of nails and so-so quality of the wood. Fun to see the finished project nonetheless.


Bulls are unpredictable for sure. My sister would feed our black angus bull a bushel of corn a day. Lol. Under dad's watchful eye of course. The bull liked her I guess. But then I sat on the deck at my cousins house a few years ago and they had let the cows go out to pasture in a ravine and they wanted to keep the bull up at the barn (for timing of calves) well we watch him push and shove a steel cattle gate bending it till it bowed and creased. And they finally let him go out with the girls. Those would have been early calves that next year born on snow. Dad always calved for April and May. Interestingly though living out west in Montana they calved a couple months earlier - mostly February or March.

My brother has worked on beef ranches in Colorado and they calved in February and March. Up on the mountain ranch it was dang cold too for those poor babies.
