Oh nothing can stop spring
The sun is shining now and it’s warmer already! And it was such a nice spring in the last weeks, enduring a few winter days weren’t that hard though my poor SO who had to go outside for longer times didn’t enjoy it.
So it was no big deal. When we moved here, there was a foggy November. Dense fog for 3 weeks straight… Sunshine is part of my fuel, I don’t even know how I survived that but it was truly horrible. I usually last for 3 days and then I become miserable without sunshine. But such weather is rare here, we usually have enough sunshine every week, even in winter. Maybe a rainy autumn is the worst but the rain usually stops for some time, it just pours for hours every day, that’s a bit boring.
The usual farm did something, I will ask my SO what to do. They sell lambs now, whole or half. It’s expensive compared to other animals but not horribly so and it’s lamb… How big is a lamb? If they are the same breed as usual, those half muttons weigh 24lbs as meat and bones, cleaned out (120lbs for a whole living being)? Well, not much, that’s sure. What it is like? It’s surely tender but how does it taste? Bland or being a sheep, still very flavorful? It probably depends on the tastebuds of the one in question too as many people hate the special mutton flavor. I like it. Tender mutton, it sounds awesome.
And we run out of non-smoked meat. I think we should buy half a lamb, at least. I always wanted to try it.
