The last year we have only had one goat in milk... which was close to just right for drinking. On occasion we got more than we wanted to drink.. and Spouse turned it into ice cream.

Last year we had 2 milking and then I made yogurt and cheeses that don't need renet. So ricotta, and soft spreading cheese.



what is the photo of?

Will you have more goats i milk this year?

I need to make some cheese soon before the rennet I have in the fridge gets too old. Note to self: check expiry date!

The two of them dumped an entire feed bowl of pellets out on the ground right after I filled it, fighting over who should be able to have their head in it.

Sounds like you need feed buckets you can attach to the fence so they can't toss them around.

It seems that tattoos can aid cancer treatment in many ways!

I'm not real big on body art but if they can cure cancer I'm all for it!

Keep that bug over on your coast!

Yeah, on the coast, don't let it spread west at all!

I bought a quart of pasteurized goat milk at the health food store. Frankly I couldn't really tell the difference between it and cow's milk.

Hard cheese is fun to make!

Chocolate will be fine Alaskan - when do I get some?
