Clueless on Curry Farm
Posted on 2006-Jun-10 at 06:28 - Post Comment
Golly I've been away for ages. I am hoping to be
around a lot more because I am in great need of some serious
learnin'. One thing that has been really cool, is that we found a
lady who supplies us with fresh unpasteruized and non homogenized
milk. We are loving that ! I need to learn how to make
butter. I tried but it turned out rather nastyish.
Also, my garden is growing. I'm trying to keep up with the
weeds. I bought a hoe today. I don't even know how to use a
hoe....

I reciently started a blog too...I am having fun with it!
I wanted to suggest http://thefamilyhomestead.com/ You have probably already heard of it, but I have learned so much there, and if you go to the message board, there is an awsome forum of women. They have taught me a ton! Anyway, looking forward to getting to know you better through your blog!
God bless, Rossie
Butter
Posted by Dawn on 2006-Jun-10 at 10:28 - Link
We place our cream in a smaller size jar let it get to room temperature,shake nonstop for 20 or so min. then take out the butter keeping the milk from it for pancakes or other uses, then run the butter under very cold water till the water runs clear and then we form it into a ball and place in fridge in a container. This works for us and if I get tired of shaking the jar I hand it over to one of my children. Have fun trying out new things!! -Dawn
Golly...

I'd say you've been gone for awhile...good thing I know where to find your adventures on homeschoolblogger!!! ;)
Wow...great job on finding the milk...how did the kids take the change over? This is still on my to-do list!!
How are the chickens? when is "D" day for some of them? I am assuming some of them / most of them will be in the freezer? How many are you keeping for eggs?
