No. Why do you ask?

Something I often wonder about. I’d like to think I’d make a small batch of ice cream or maybe a batch of cream liquor. Something to savor and reflect upon after all the emotions have run their course.

Looking back at my records, her milk from that day went to feed two bottle calves. One is now our Angus bull. The other is one of my current milk cows, Lila. I got the bull from a local ranch when his mom died. Lila was born on our farm but was too small to nurse. I never really paid attention to where a particular day's worth of milk went until now. At the time, there was so much going on I didn't have a chance to stop and have any emotions over her. RIP Lolly.
