Lavender Hollow Jody's Girl got a 9th place out of 23 at the Gwinett County Fair not what I hoped for. I showed 5 and got 9th,10th, 12th,13th and 14th. Now I wait to bred them and see how there udders look. And now the breeding season is upon me I have bred 2 does so far and will start breeding the others as they come into heat. Arranging them is toughest especially if it rains to make sure they have cover but other bucks can not annoy them. I am still milking 2 does Heather and maggie. heather is giving 2 qts a day right now and maggie 2 cups but still no sign of high somatic cell counts so I am still making cheese and speaking of cheese I an making cheese all week end for the ADGA convention cheese competiton Oct 18-22. I am entering 2 flavored chevres and a crottin (aged soft cheese mold ripened) I am excited and worried since my first batch came out perfect to me. the flavoured ones are one I cal tuscany a driedrossemary,onion,pepper and paprika 
and a sugared pecan and dried cranberry. Along with the crottin. I also made a sundried tomatoe and fresh basil for friends. I want to start a newsletter calling it Home grown Cheese, making cheese simple. I want it to be for and to connect everyone that makes cheese at home. Offering anyone a connecting point to cheese.
