Meet Our New Cow

My father in law called me yesterday around 11:00 and said, “Hey, can you be here to pick up your cow at 1:30?”

Now, you have to understand that my husband and I could win an award for having the worst communication skills EVER between 2 people. But I think I would remember him saying something…ANYTHING…about us taking one of Papa’s cows.

So I said, “Huh?” (meaning…elaborate please!)

He goes on, “Well, it’s a half a cow actually.”

That didn’t help my confused state of mind. Half a cow? Why would I want half of a cow???

Then he started talking about freezer space and I needed to be on time because the cow had already traveled over an hour to get there.

Ohhhhhh…light bulb moment!!!!

How nice of Papa! He sent a few of his cows off to be butchered and we got to split one with Jay’s family. Out of curiosity, I asked him how much it costs to have that done. You’ll never believe what he said. Forty-five cents a pound. WOW! For everything from ground hamburger to T-bones for 45 cents a pound! Can’t beat that!!!

Beef…It’s What’s for Dinner!
