SBC/GW's Journal- Spring shows DONE! & Update

Poor @Southern by choice !! She hasn't been all that well lately you know, you should try to be nice to her

I'm laughing at this conversation!

So we are still not done!
Great news though... our friend brought by her trailer and we will be packing up tomorrow!

She has been to a couple of shows with us and after the fair she will be the proud new owner of several goats!
It is fun to have someone to travel with and do goaty stuff together. She already bought some mini's from us.

I have another blister from hoof trimming. :/
These goats were just done last month... geesh.
We have heads to do on all the goats still and touch ups on a bunch... still have about 10 goats hooves to do.
It just gets too dark too soon now and it leaves little time to get them all done.

Very excited for @OneFineAcre to see Isaac's kids. The one doeling you can really see Isaac's influence over. She is a beauty.
I know they are just babies but we think they are pretty darn cute! GW and I have different favorites- I love the little black doeling- I did the minute she was born. The red one stands beautifully though.

Getting excited about the show. Hoping I will be able to get there at some point. Still making arrangements. I may swap places with DH - he can milk so maybe I can go this time. He told me to make sure I take pics.

Are you making some of those pastry thingies for the cover dish on Friday ?

She's trying to figure out how she can make something really good AND keep it warm

Do you like spicey? I wanted to make these really yummy appetizers. I just don't know how to keep things from spoiling and then warm them up. :/

Of course, I really need goats who have good attitudes. I got rid of an entire line of great milkers because they were such PITA's!!! All of them!

I got rid of a couple of LMs because they were PITAs and there are a few more on the chopping block if they don't straighten up. Most of my alpines are not bottle babies and I find that I really like them a whole lot better than some of the bottle raised kids. Not sure how this will work out next year when ALL of the kids will be bottled raised; I just don't need goats that need to be taught "down" and want to crowd me when I am walk through the barn.

I love spicy
Best to stick with easy for cover dish meals.
Maurine's "go to" is beef stroganoff.
