I am SO looking forward to milking. Homegrown milk is the wheel that houses our spokes.
Almost all the animals will drink her milk. including me. And all those wonderful things we make with the milk and cream. Oh cream! It’s been too long. But still we wait.
All of us.
Her milk will feed us all. Soon we hope.
I am going to say the watched pot never boils then I am going to say patience is a virtue. Then I am going to say a bad word.
And I am a naturally patient person. Resolved. Resolute. Patient. We are getting an awful lot done while we wait.
Well, some of us are.
And I hope you have a lovely day.

Everything has a time and place, right? Txiki is so adorable! I want to pet that area between her ears and down the sides of her cheeks.
what you need is a publicity stunt. Txiki at the Met Gala. Amy Schumer milks cow. work it. work it.
Pizza with added hot pepper flakes did it for me. Boom. Baby.
Txiki is really so beautiful, the glow of her. Every single photo tears at the old heart strings. That Boo Boy, the cats, that sweet Cadet holding snug that sweet piggie. And The Lady! Her expression! Oh my. Que sera sera .
The time-honoured remedy for a late baby used to be a hot bath and a large gin (at beginnig and end of the process), but I don’t suppose that’ll be much use for a heifer.
Lovely piccies today.
love

Yesterday’s photo I have to mention how it looks like TonTon picked up a stick for Lady to throw for him.
And Lady was thinking of throwing it AT him!! c
I meant to comment yesterday that in the header pic Lady A appeared to be saying “don’t push your luck, dog, I’m not in the mood!”
I think today she appears to be saying “whose bloody idea was this baby anyway!”

Lovely. Nothing better than fresh milk straight from the cow.
She has a soft inward-looking expression, or she just has gas! But no pressure Lady, with all eyes on you.
I love little piggies – and it seems your little piggies like people!! ; o )
A REALLY cute post! I love the photos of everyone in waiting mode and that calf is adorable. xxx
The animals seem just fine . . . . and you will have your milk and cream and cheese SOON !!! Just a big hug to The Cadet: methinks the four-leggeds well feel a special relationship . . .
Oh that waiting came. Well, it’s the middle of the night now so a likely time for Lady A to have gone into labour?! Fingers crossed!
Awww, we are looking into a family milk cow. Here is Florida, it’s not the easiest nor the cheapest thing to do! But darn it, I will get a milk cow! Awesome blog Celi!
My ambition is to train and sell milking milk cows. Pity you are so far away. Cows are expensive but if you have a farm and pasture they are an excellent investment.. c
Cecilia, we got a cow! We are so happy with our Elsie! Hope all is well.
Sweet pic of the cadet and piglet. I’m pretty sure that’s part of her job description.
