FROM BORIS' PIG PEN! DANJO FARMS HAS A METHANE ABUNDANCE!

FROM THE NOTE PAD!

Well, its seedling time again for the family. Our house gets tables set up in the window sills for tomato, cucumber and pepper plants. Then we place the seedling trays on heat mats and give them a nice florescent grow bulb to keep them happy and short. Lots of water and sunshine and within a month we have 4 inch baby plants for the greenhouses. We are going to plant onions sets, radish seed, mitzuna and tatsoi greens, spinach seed, and transplant more Russian blue kale and weed the carrots again. Maybe we can get some broccoli and cauliflower sprouts this week from the patch! The peppermint is sprouting in greenhouse #4 taking over a 10 square feet area! Whew! It smells fragrant.

CITY FOLK SAYINGS!
 OK friends! Who let the pigs out?!?! They always seem to be getting out into the yard, or the neighbors yard or down the lane or into the back field. I think they just want to get out and stretch their legs! Because as soon as a holler for them (Here PIG! PIG! PIG!) they are at the gate ready to be fed. Our 500 pound Hereford boar named Boris sure scares the neighbor lady to death when you goes outside to get in the car though. Bhahahaaa! He wouldnt hurt a soul. He's just nosy, that's all!

RECIPES FROM OUR FARM TO YOUR TABLE!
Angel Cloud Biscuits
4 cups of flour
8 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt
2 Tablespoons of white sugar
Mix these ingredients together in a large mixing bowl,
then cut in -
1 cup of shortening
In another bowl mix -
1 1/2 cups of whole milk
2 large brown eggs from Danjo Farms
Add this to the flour mixture and turn into until mixed up well!

(OK! So this is the important part, so listen up!)

Use two boards 3/4 inches thick and 1 foot long. Put the Dough in the middle of the two boards and gently roll out the dough until it is 3/4 inches thick. Cut into 2 inch round biscuits with a pastry cutter. Then place on a greased cookie sheet next to EACH other and TOUCHING one another. Bake at 350F for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown on the top. Pull out of the oven and slather on some fresh butter about a minute after they come out of the oven! "If they ain't touchin', they ain't fluffy as clouds," Grandma says!

Grandma said not to listen to any younger folks because we are full of it! Give her a call a BR549 if you need to talk with someone who knows about making these Angel Cloudy Biscuits! Yee Haw! Rural Rednecks rule!
