Dairy Good Life: February 2015
http://www.dairygoodlife.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 24, 2015. Baby Calf Names of 2014. One of the best parts of dairy farming, at least for me, is naming all of the new babies that are born. Now, I don't name them all – it's oftentimes a joint effort between me, Glen, and the kids. The inspiration for each of the names can come from many places. I wrote a column a couple years ago about the process. Zula – Zora. Harp – Heaven. Lia – Loa. Gael – Gem. Laila – Louie. Sparkle – Star. Downy – Dove. Honey – Hurricane. Wiggle – Wink. Tornado &#...

Tuesday, March 31, 2015. Dollop and Scoop – No. 13. Here's a look back at our week. You know those activities you plan to do with your kids, but never seem to get to them? Well, flying kites used to be one of those activities for us. It seems like we talked and talked about it, but never got around to it. Until last Saturday. The sun was shining, there was an incredible south wind, and we actually had kites because Glen reminded me to pick some up last time I was at the store. Dan and Monika and their co...

Friday, June 26, 2015. 100 Reasons to Love Dairy. For me, there are a million reasons to love dairy. So when Midwest Dairy asked if I wanted to be part of this 100 Reasons to Love Dairy. Blogging project, I immediately agreed. It should be easy to write about something that means so much to me, right? So instead of trying to narrow my list down to 10 reasons, I'm going to focus on the number one reason I love dairy: Dairy foods taste great. I found this graphic created by Rachel Glaves. Milk is where all...

Dairy Good Life: Celebrate dairy people
http://www.dairygoodlife.com/2015/06/celebrate-dairy-people.html
Sunday, June 28, 2015. I have thoroughly enjoyed June Dairy Month this year. I love seeing dairy celebrated for all that it contributes to our world: nutritious foods, good jobs, and both domestic and international economic development. But what really makes dairy worth celebrating are the people. Who are these dairy people? Well, dairy farmers, of course, but there are so many more dairy people beyond farmers. This is Glen. He's my favorite dairy farmer! This is Carle. He's been helping Land O'Lakes.

Dairy Good Life: Butter Crunch Lemon-Cheese Bars
http://www.dairygoodlife.com/2012/11/butter-crunch-lemon-cheese-bars.html
Wednesday, November 14, 2012. Butter Crunch Lemon-Cheese Bars. New life for old cottage cheese. I hate throwing food away. For that matter, I hate wasting anything. But it really bothers me to see food go to waste, so I try hard to gauge our grocery needs and purchase accordingly. I also try to minimize leftovers (for fear they'll get lost in the back of the fridge) and find ways to use up fresh foods that are past their prime. A buttery, crunchy crust topped with a tangy, lemon filling. To prepare crust...
