No one wanted to do Easter dinner, so I cooked some lamb necks, bone in, for lunch today. The recipe I used called for rosemary, didn't have any, used fresh oregano instead. It also called for wine and lemon juice, I substituted cooking sherry and lemonade.
:lol:

But they still were delicious.
😋

I'm going to try boneless next time.

I was an exhibitor at the local Grange yesterday. We (us two County Fair gals) were invited to the Emergency Self Sufficient Preparedness Fair, to represent what we do in the Canning and Dehydrating portion of the Fair. Other attendees were S.A.R (search and rescue), Red Cross, CRESA (Clark Regional Emergency Services Agency), a cat rescue, an equine rescue, the gas company, our Clark County Utilities company, and more.

At this one, we had the opportunity to expand our presence with some more focus on prepping. (At the fair we cannot - the fair is for education). We had about 40 ppl come up to our display and speak with us.
Here I am and then the vid is what the Superintendent and I set up for attendees.

One of the reasons Canada has had high tariffs on dairy is that they wanted to encourage consumption of their own milk/dairy products.... and they pay their farmers VERY GOOD prices for their milk for that reason. Cannot fault them for that....
They also have done alot of trading in beef cattle, there are big finishing/feed lots and have taken alot of cattle from northern states to feed out... plus there are some areas that ship cattle over the border to finish here... trading off.... not saying it is equal or fair... but the dairy part I can see from their point in the past... Not exactly that different from US wanting to buy "American" now........

@murphysranch that was a really nice set up! I like the labels for attendees to have explanation. I see a full compliment of options for continual ready or emergencies.. 👍

@farmerjan you're right, Canada takes more interest in & care for their farmer set ups. Here, too much has been sold out. Big corps take over -- pros & cons for each side of thought.

Coffee is ready. Heavy thunderstorms south of me, moving eastward. Not supposed to reach me. I’ll be butchering chicken’s today and tomorrow. 22 more and I’ll be done.

The Pope passed away last night at 88 years of age.

Going to be mid 50's today with torrential rain coming, same as yesterday. Doesn't want to stop raining here so not much is getting done and May is coming. Doesn't help 5 days a week wrenching then 2 days a week rain or odds and ends customer jobs.
Next up, fight this citation... wife wants me to take it further and sue the city on the same note she has gave me full permission to do what I do best and it's not just this. Let the beast out of the cage.
