My Rosemary ...Everything looks so CLEAN and GREEN!<br /><br />My Rosemary is in a pot in my office and looking pretty pathetic. I didn't even know that it would bloom! It's warming up here so maybe I'll start putting it outside during the day...Nancy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06061265740359266798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-47320909805018145212010-03-23T11:12:25.791-07:002010-03-23T11:12:25.791-07:00Thanks for the link, WeekendFarmer!

I figured we could drink it, but since we've been on skim milk for decades, it would probably feel like drinking cream - NOT a pleasant thought, believe it or not! Using it for the occasional rich dish I make would probably work best.<br /><br />Don't be too impressed by the ultrasound; my husband is a horse vet so the machine and know-how are available for free -- IF I can persuade him to use both! We only did it this season because of a ram break-out. If the two ewe lambs had been bred, we were going to make them cycle. Fortunately, they weren't. And of course, while he had the machine out, I really wanted to know what was cooking in the older ewes.<br /><br />As for all the sheep enclosures, my husband mutters that all he does around here is build "sheep stuff" -- bless him!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-80955517154176756542010-03-23T10:56:26.028-07:002010-03-23T10:56:26.028-07:00you can drink sheep milk as is...just like your wo...you can drink sheep milk as is...just like your would drink cow milk! It is delicious. Just boil it a little and have it warm. <br /><br />http://weekendfarmer.blogspot.com/search/label/milk<br /><br />Did you say ultrasound for the sheep? wow!<br /><br />I love your sheep enclosure. Its so organized! I think you will call animal control if you saw my set-up : ).WeekendFarmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360299517360406552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-83683465518933511112010-03-23T09:23:01.976-07:002010-03-23T09:23:01.976-07:00I've shown the last couple years, mostly as a ...I've shown the last couple years, mostly as a marketing tool; I don't expect to be in the ribbons and I'm not. But I've sold both sheep and fleeces/roving as a result of going to the shows. Last year I showed my half-poll boys; since I'm the only one in this area who breeds for polled rams a lot of people don't even know it's possible in Shetlands and I think it's important to educate folks.<br /><br />As for rosemary, its tough stuff! I don't think you get any colder in KY than we do here; we're certainly farther north.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-83618789982748039712010-03-23T09:12:34.120-07:002010-03-23T09:12:34.120-07:00Me?

We're just at that in-between, gray, nothing-to-photograph, and nothing-to-talk-about stage between winter and spring. <br /><br />Rosemary as a perennial! It is strictly an annual here. Your girls are lovely - with and without wool. Really, they appear to have really nice conformation. So you're going to try showing, huh? The Shetland community seems to have mixed feelings about that - but I hope you do well!!!Deb Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09805188576444827531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-55962822084389702792010-03-22T21:23:04.088-07:002010-03-22T21:23:04.088-07:00The cheese I made that one time from Inky's mi...The cheese I made that one time from Inky's milk was brie. It came out better than the cows milk wheel I made at the same time. It tasted richer and didn't shrink down as much in the mold.<br /><br />-Susansusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03778195541247482786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-91489388641311302802010-03-22T14:38:17.487-07:002010-03-22T14:38:17.487-07:00Feta is made with sheep milk actually.
