What's For Dinner Honey?
When I arrived home from vacation in Jaunary, it was about -20 degrees. There was a near dead lamb in the basement. Rich brought it in to revive it. We thought that was a little weird. And then when we realized it was going to live, we moved it to a little box in our 'mudroom' bath room. And it stayed - oh, I dunno, about 2.5 days bleating its little heart out.
Sometimes when we're doing farming sort of things we look over our right and left shoulders, back and forth, to see if other farmers are looking. Do we look like complete buffoons? We do that way less now than our first year, because we have come to realize farming is a personal 'art' more than it is a science.
So I talk to my friend a little about it...."Say there.... , friend, we, uh, had a lamb, in the bathroom for a couple of days..." (checking to see if this is weird.) Friend says, "Oh yeah, we had cows in the house all the time on the farm. Gotta do what you gotta do."
She's apparently taken it to the next level...I think she is having veal for dinner tonight, got the lil' one right there in the kitchen. (Oh she isn't having veal, that is a joke.)
