I used to buy mincemeat in a jar and add chopped apple, raisins, shredded roast beef and brandy. Then I gave up such treats. I might be tempted to try out Gail's pastry recipe and make some mincemeat, not in that order. <br /><br />Willow is a sweet cow if she takes a strange calf. Maybe it is because she's a milk cow? Beef cows are not usually so agreeable.<br /><br />Just take the money the yearling brought and buy only the cuts you like. That usually works out well.

Should be interesting.<br /><br />Probably the calf will be for the freezer 2 years from now. We may have to butcher a yearling due to the negligence or 'greed' of my mate! He sells everything in sight if I don't watch him closely.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-54323183241165208362013-10-11T07:52:09.706-05:002013-10-11T07:52:09.706-05:00Sandy, I have to take a taste several times a day...Sandy, I have to take a taste several times a day.....just checking to be sure it is ripening ok........I do love the stuff!gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-55663007886240125382013-10-11T06:06:27.874-05:002013-10-11T06:06:27.874-05:00Gosh sure your house must've smelled like a he...Gosh sure your house must've smelled like a heavenly bakery after all that goodness in the oven and in the pan!
