day off :)

Shopping in Ottawa today, once again we went to the T&T store :), I just love it there, I was looking for Nigari a coagulant for Soy milk to make tofu, they did not have it, but they did have  Gypsum Powder.

and they also had Durian :) after many years of debating ... should I try it or should I not!!!
I will try it, and I will also try to film or take pictures of it when we do *LOL*

DURIAN!!

we also went to visit my husband's cousin and his family, they where in the barn milking, the mom was milking the cows and one of the son's was milking the goats,
here a few pictures of the goats.










nothing much else today.
tomorrow morning it's cream making, this time for sure!

I'm in a very bad mood!!!

yesterday my PC messed up, so I spend the whole night until 4am trying to fix it, had to reformat and since recovery was not working :( lost many pictures, notes, pecepies and more.. this morning it messed up again..
I think I have it partly working, still got error messages. but I will try to fix these later.

major disaster, my nice huge BabySwiss cheese busted this morning :( and I asked for help on the boards, but sadly did not get any,

it smells so good!! but it has to mature and age another 5-6 weeks!!!


I knew I was supposed to vac pack it if it would bust, but my cheese is to big for my biggest bag :(
I just cut it in 4 pieces and vaccuum pack each piece.

now is it still supposed to be at warmer temperatures????? I HAVE NO CLUE!!!
so I put it back in to the cave. it has to ripen a lot longer still!!
hope to get some help tomorrow.

I also opened up one of my first big cheese I made this cheese season *LOL* looks good





 cut it up and vaccuum seald it to, I have to go to a campfire tonight, so I bring sausages and cheese, and for me a bottle of Baby Duck... I think I deserve it..



AND I'M NOT GONNA SHARE IT!!!! *LOL*
it's all MINE!!! ;P


tomorrow is our day off, so just feeding my critters and off we go to Ottawa, daughter needs shorts and I need " NIGARI" tofu coulogulant... anyways here a few pictures.
PEACE
