Here's a video of Ferdinand, the new calf: https://youtu.be/Kz7jqAf2_b4
That was Saturday morning, with George in the barn. We had taken Bella out to the pasture. 
Sunday, it reached 70 F and all the snow melted!
We baked bread yesterday. As a start to Great Lent, we started reading from the beginning of the Bible with Genesis, lit a candle, also incense, prayers with prostrations, covered our television with a bedsheet.
Saturday was 42 Fahrenheit, warmer than Friday which reached only a high of 27 F.
The cow is producing more milk than the calf can consume right now. So, if you have any (easy and, or freezable) cheese recipes, please share. I am thinking about buying a vacuum sealer.
This is a really nice booklet that explains why we should fast. It's something I've struggled with more as I get older. I find myself feeling weak, but am determined to do a better job than I have in the past. For me, it's a temptation to have fish for the children for a meal and when they don't eat it all, I would finish it. I'm going to either put away leftovers in the refrigerator or give it to the chickens. With God, it's possible to improve!
