Today, July 12, is Cow Appreciation Day.
When I volunteered at the Franziskusgemeinschaft community in Austria last autumn, I certainly appreciated the cow.
Her rich milk was made into butter, cream, and cheese; the fresh raw milk was also great to drink.
She loved to eat the mash that was left over after we pressed apples.
Ah, I do miss the good folks and the friendly animals there at the farm.

Quite a cow she is, too.
ReplyDeleteCows are very sweet. They can be dangerous because they're big, but they're not mean.
ReplyDeleteCows are very generous and we would do well to appreciate them...
