Well, we own a cow.

Or at least part of one.

We’ve just started a cow share in order to get raw milk every week. In Virginia it’s illegal to buy raw (unpasteurized) milk, so to get around that you buy partial ownership of a cow and then you can legally get that cow’s milk. Tricky, right?

We picked up our first gallon today.

Oh. My. God. It is so good. So unbelievably smooth and creamy.

I can only really drink skim milk – 2% and whole milk are just too thick (or something) for me. So I was a little hesitant before I tried it, but my fears were unfounded. It is divine.

Next up, I would like to try making butter, yogurt, and cheese from it too.

Moo.
