I am tired of just of writing about quilting and such. And you really don't want me to write about housework or other cleaning, heck I don't even want to.
So I thought I would do something related to the farm
How about Cow Trivia
* A cow has 32 teeth, and will chew about 40 - 50 times a minute.
*A cow will chew for up to 8 hours a day
* Cows move their jaws about 40,000 times a day
*Cows spend about 10 hours a day laying down.
* Cows will stand up and lay down about 14 times a day.
*Cows can sleep while they're standing.
( is that where cow tipping comes in)
* The first cow arrived in the U.S. in 1611 in Jamestown.
* A cow will consume about 40 lbs. of food in a day.
* The hamburger debuted at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis.
* Almost 2,000 quarter pound hamburgers can be made from the ground beef in one cow.
* Cows have an acute sense of smell and can detect odors up to 6 miles away.
Pretty cool facts.

Congrats on all the progress. Vintage Garden is very pretty. Those scalloped frames really help the different fabrics blend together.
