Re: Any other farmers/homesteaders out there
That is precious!
I was once called a city slicker... My first cow lost her calf. She was in milk at 6 gallons a day and I had not only not figured out what in the world to do with that much milk and had not the physical strength to milk it (Yes I have forearms like Popeye now)... so... I put an ad on craigslist looking for a calf to foster. A fellow answered my ad and said "That mama cow aint gonna take no other cow's calf, you silly CITY SLICKER"..... I was furious! So upset in fact that I emailed him back from my own email address.... My level headed husband pointed out that this might not be the smartest thing I'd ever done, lol! He also mentioned that I was not nearly as mad when I drunk guy in the Walmart parking lot had called me a COW.... Yep... City slicker... a world class insult around here!
