Hi Fran,

You just reminded me to add avocados to
this weeks shopping list. Great source
of plant fat. (Also proves it can be done.)

You never said what kind of cow you raise?
(Zero carb!)

Out here most all of the ranches are Cow-Calf.

For those unfamiliar, Cow-Calf is where
the ranchers raise the calves to a certain age,
then sell then to others to raise the rest of
the way. Sort of like the tomato plants we
buy at the nursery. When the ranchers round
up all the calves for sale, the mamas cry
all night. Kind of heart breaking.

One guy raises cows with the bent horns that
the rodeo cowboys like to wrestle to the
ground -- too hard to do with straight horns.
