ok. i am about to attempt my first milk session with all willing does. that might mean 6. Yesterday, THIS came:
it's a Maggiedan's hand milker. and the counter has been cleaned with bleach. and i searched for the little notebook that Lisa Check (from my old online writing circle) had made me seemingly so long ago. it will be my Milking Journal. go see Flyinggoatfarm.com Lisa created a Whole World. and lives in it.
but because i am so nervous, i first made macaroni and cheese. ate it. and just now...took that twisted and clamped bundle out of the walnut, un clamped, un bundled and look what we have here
