Working on the first cup. Second one coming up soon! Closer to trip day and anxiety is real! But, preparation is the solution to anxiety so keeping on with the preps!
I made pulled pork this morning and put it straight into the freezer. We'll have it when we get home from the trip.
I asked DH what he wanted for dinner and he said tacos. So... We kinda had tacos, but no taco shells. I used mini-sweet peppers as the "taco shells." Pork butt instead of...
I did a whole lot of NO outdoor chores yesterday. Wormed goats and that was about it. However, my refrigerator has been relieved of anything that might threaten to turn green and fuzzy while I'm gone next week. Also have a whole bunch of now empty and clean canning jars.
Started packing too...
Last night I took some of the pork butt and pulled it into rough chunks. Added a few mexican type seasonings and topped it with a drizzle of the fat that had cooked out of it. I stuck that under the broiler until it was crispy and toasty. Sauteed some onions and bell peppers and wrapped all...
I totally understand, hence why we're eating out of the pantry at least once a week, and quite often several times. I mean, I canned it to use it - so we're using it!
I'm going to milk a couple of days before we leave for the trip. I'll try canning it before we go. Evaporated milk has gotten...
Slept great last night for the first time in a while. For the week or so DH wasn't wearing his chin strap my average hours of sleep dropped to around 4 hours a night. I can't function for more than a day or so on that little sleep. The deficits catch up....
Temps are moderate in the mid 60's...
I get it.
Another reason to keep the numbers controllable is the "what if" thoughts. I wouldn't want to leave anyone the problem of what to do with 20-30 goats. It'll be enough if they have to deal with a dozen or so. Enough of those thoughts. They have their place, but not a thing to...
Nothing better! That pork butt has been cooking low and slow all night and my house smells divine!!
Pulled pork sammiches tonight about dark-thirty, lol.
When you can't walk without your pants threatening to abandon ship - it's time for some new ones, lol.
Well, I did it again! Sold 5 more goats today. That leaves me with only 13 adult goats right now. I've got a couple of does and two doelings that are on the "maybe" sell list. Might be...
Tonight is pork loin with cabbage, green beans and corn/cream cheese.
Putting a butt in the oven overnight so I won't have much cooking to do for several days. I see pulled pork and carnitas in our future
