Congratulations on the fresh butter!!! I have been wanting to make some also, but I only have one goat that I am milking right now. It would take forever to collect enough for butter. I can't wait until I can make my own.

I was lucky as a child. I was raised on a farm, where we had our own eggs and meat. My husband and I just moved into our new house a year ago. It has been a slow process, but we have our own chickens for eggs. I am thinking about the idea of raising some for meat next year. My father-in-law...

My DH and I disagree a lot when it comes to money. I am the saver and he is the spender. Our big problem right now is the way he is with his father. He does everything for him like all the baling of the hay and straw, but doesn't get anything for it. His father has 100 acres of hay and does a...
