Embrace? What, do you want me to go take a bath with it or something? I'm 1/4 Dutch, thankfully my apt heat is paid for, but I still wash my clothes in the tub and hang them around the house :P I am NOT spending $1.75 to wash a load.

Abi will have to be the milker, I am NOT milking a cow! Nooo ma'am! Sorry! Pet yes. Eat yes. Milk? No.

I HATE sourdough bread! I'm going to go cry now. :hit

Yes. I did that each time I went to bake. (I have that recipe on my fridge) When I initially 'restarted' the starter after having it in the fridge, I added those ingredients too, but those three-four times were the only times I did it. By foamy to you mean frothy? If frothy, then no. It was...

Oh? I added the other ingredients a few different times, I admit I experimented quite a bit - and no go. I did have one loaf rise a tiny bit in the oven when baking it, but only a couple centimeters.

Even if they are in a raging heat, sometimes they STILL don't stand for the buck. Our buck usually pins the girls in a corner... :rolleyes: Otherwise the side of a building is all they need. :lol: We've had a few does that DON'T show signs of being in heat. Last year we left the buck in with...

Maybe I cussed at my starter too much and it decided it didn't like me and killed itself?

WHY is your kitchen so cold??? Well, I think my apt. is just a bit warmer - it's warmer in the bathroom (laundry room is next door over) so that was where I had been keeping it. What I was doing was taking about 1/2 cup of water and 1 cup of flour, mixing it with the sponge, starter, whatever...

I was trying to get my SD going for two week, it would bubble but never rise like it was supposed to. I wasted so much flour splitting it up. None of the loafs would turn out, and they tasted like dried cat food. I kept it going when I came home to visit, thinking that the warmer temp is what...

I found an interesting video on foods that promote a long life. Obviously the guy is a little off about some of what he is saying.. not all, but soy milk? Saturated fats are bad? HOWEVER I was interesting to see that they had GOAT MILK on the list...

Poplar Hills is the main goat milk producer here in MN and several other states. I believe they have 900+ animals milking at any given time, it's crazy. 'Zilla! When are you getting your Dexter?

Yup... Pasteurized goat milk = :sick Granted, pasteurized anything is gross, but the heat really brings out a goaty flavor. Was the milk from Poplar Hills?

I have no idea how it stays in the ground, I would probably say years. I actually have no idea how researched that idea is. I read that dousing down areas with ammonia and bleach, and burning everything else helps - and then excavating/redoing soil and pasture areas can help? My first...

Johnes and CL. CL = Caseous Lymphadenitis. Johnes.. Run away fast. Lol. If you are familiar with Crohn's disease, it is rather similar to that, as it initially infects the intestines and causes malabsorption. Most animals with it die. There has been some speculation that they are related and...

Maybe someone waned to do some strange experiment? I haven't any clue, but I would assume that it's a typo as well. I have three does that I need to draw blood from and test - one was CAE neg last year so I need to make sure she is still neg so I can breed her first and collect colostrum from...

CAE is Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis, transmittable through blood and milk - but rarely through breeding, unless he buck is rough and injures her. It can cause goats to go lame and even lead to death, but over 90% of animals infected live normal healthy lives.

OK Leah, Let's have it. Did you finish? What happens? Can we read it?

Oh, I remember another, The Adventures of Milo and Otis. I don't know, at that age I was either watching showed that weren't age appropriate or watching series on 'TV Land', such as I Love Lucy, Leave It To Beaver, I Dream of Jeannie, etc. I second The Secret of Nihm, if it was anything like...

I'm not sure about age appropriateness, but I think 'Goonies' is a must!

Just saying. :P (clean out your inbox madam)
