The Three Degrees

Been a long time ................too long

Well the title says it all, we've been very slack of late updating here so I'd better get on with it.

Clare is onto her 2nd batch of cheese today. We get it from our friendly dairy farmer Paul Sparks at 50 cents a litre and have about 12 l a time. 10 goes to making the cheese and we get about 2 litres left for cereals etc, fresh milk yum yum.


Stirring some whey to make some Ricotta

Looks a bit Heath Robinson but does the trick, I'll build a proper cheese press come the Winter.


Here's one she made earlier :-) This one is due to be tested on Gaz's 40 Birthday on March 7th

Well the grass got away from us so asked the local dairy farmer for his input and he took a cut of hay off both paddocks









Just checking they're good bales
