    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Wheat crackers, topped with soft goat cheese & apple butter...really tasty for breakfast. Been doing good all day and mostly done with today's list. I'm having a coffee break! Much warmer out today but humidity is really low, light breeze, makes it quite pleasant. My hen took her batch of...

    Same here. Use more ground & only occasionally a steak. Like them but, only if really tender. I enjoy a good roast....extras into sandwiches or soups. :idunno

    We can see the parted out prices at the grocery stores...makes sense to see bulk sides & quarters. Of course, it's overall a better price for each part being "equally" valued as a whole. I used to raise, 30 yrs ago 😂. Today, not doing. I buy some in bulk. It's just good to know these...

    @Hinotori is that price for hanging weight? I suspect it is.

    Of course, with cut loss, the take home meat is closer to $9 per #, than $5.40. We're not gonna win🤷 Pay rail weight, take home useable is less. Of course, you can take home all the "loss" portion. Render tallow, bone broth & dog foods. Lessens actual "loss" by using it in some way.

    I have a store a little further with better pricing than my close towns. But usually primal cuts & not always as tender as what I prefer. 🤷 They do have a far better chicken, however....quality wise & good for sale prices. That's why I even tried their beef. Oh well -- times are changing :old

    Ground beef prices :ep so glad the farmers are getting great $$ for cattle BUT -- a hamburger costs what a steak once did 🥴 I like lean, 93% usually, and it's at $9 a pound. 85% wasn't much less. Steaks $14- 24. Yeah, baby!! 😵‍💫 it's shocking to see. I have a few London broil frozen, & some...

    Are You Ready to Care for a Horse, Donkey, or Mule?

    I raised mini horses & donks for years. Usually 40-50 adults. Foaling season was amazing. Training, shows, farm care, outside mares to breed. Loved every minute! LOL not doing again. But I still love a good equine!! ☺️
