Amber update, the milkman calls, and 7 dozen muffins
We have a very nice arrangement with our good friend Stu, he brings us cream, and we give him eggs! Over Christmas he delivered 12 litres of cream, and we had to get really creative in our cooking.
My dear old mum came to the rescue with some tried and true cake and muffin recipes from her days on our dairy farm. These recipes replace butter with cream.
The resulting cake is so so moist and so delicious. Over the past few weeks I have made 7 dozen muffins, 10 chocolate cakes, 5 ginger spice cakes, and 10 banana cakes. Phew!!! Stu has single-handedly ensured that Ali will never again be without cake in the tins.
Amber is doing really well as you can see in the photo. We are so pleased. She is healing quickly, and no sign of infection and she is walking normally.
Other farm news - we've had the vet out and Joy is pregnant, fantastic.
While he was here he de horned Angie. She was not to keen on parting with her horns, but now it seems she is getting used to her new look.
