The grain fed isn't really. It's grain finished the last couple months. All the cattle are on pasture here up until finishing time. Guy at the end of the road sells cattle to them.

Yes It's hanging weight. I get everything I can. I render the beef fat. Can get the tail, heart, and all the liver because most dont want it. Sometimes they've tossed in extra hearts

This is the butcher we use when we actually get half a beef at their current prices. Locally raised cattle. Its much cheaper than the butcher where my Mom lives.

Homemade and low sodium for hubby No salt canned chickpeas and navy beans. Cooked frozen corn and lima beans. Half a red onion. Sliced up cucumber. Mini mozzarella balls. Sliced kalamata olives and pickled banana peppers. I make up a salt free Italian dressing to mix through it. Heavier on the...

If you use shea butter for homemade products, be aware that prices will be going up. Nigeria has put a ban on selling shea nuts for 6 months. They want processing facilities to be built in their country so they can make more than a pittance on the product. They are the largest grower at 40% of...

Bean salad again. Its a rather tasty part of the lesser us program

Told my Mom to answer suspected spam numbers as "Hello! (Such and such) police department. How may I direct your call?" Hubby used to answer "Bill's mortuary. You stab 'em we slab 'em."

I made the treadle feeders harder to open. Rats cant open now. They are starving. When i put down some feed for the recently ill and the mostly blind hen, rats braved me to try and get some. Played whack a rat for a bit, then baited the ratinator. 26 in 15 minutes

I need to dress like the year 2000 and carry around the ancient LG flip phone I found in the junk drawer. Just wander looking confused and like I'm trying to get a signal

Beef is going up here. I'll get prices next time I'm at the Business Center

Found a patch of eyebright this evening. Was walking around and "hmmm. I don't know this plant but it looks familiar."

Great Uncle had one of those train to saddle way back when. Had a small herd of them that was kept. Mom says great aunt still has a few there. Her 1st cousin's husband will probably keep them, too. He runs the farm now.

They use Turn Signals where you are? The tweekers and car thieves are also abundant here and they drive insane. We sometimes have to drive Canyon Road which is Puyallup/Tacoma. Lots of big rigs who speed and run red lights. Always accidents there. We stay away from Seattle as much as...
