I think that was what buttermilk was at one point but I read somewhere that now they make it from milk and some sort of acidic additive. If I recall correctly, the stuff my grandmother gave us was pretty sour. We made butter with my gram as well but used her mixing stand not a churn. I thought the liquid left over from making butter was called whey too.

Buttermilk is pretty sour and thick too. We always called whey what was left after straining the cheese.
we made butter by shaking a jar with a thingy in it

Your a woman with perseverance Sub, I don't think I fully grasp your growing season? I see those are cold weather plants, do they reach full maturity?

If the bugs and animals don’t get them they should make it to the frypan

I didn't love some of it but was glad for the overall experience, which was instrumental to my later success.

We had power and indoor plumbing, though both of my grandparents had outhouses. I hand cranked some of our tractors, but our cars all had electric start.

I did have a 1959 Renault Dauphine that the tire tool doubled as a hand crank, which I used to get it started with a dead battery a couple of times.

We moved to town my junior year of high school.

One day when leaving for the school bus about a 1/4 mile walk, I dawdled and missed the bus. There was some horse loggers using a sleigh to move logs in the vicinity of where the bus stopped by a creek. They asked me if I wouldn't mind getting on their sleigh and they would take me through the forest block and come out the other side where my one room schoolhouse was.
Would a parent let their child do that in todays world? That's a good memory.
Plus I got the strap grade 3 or 4 for throwing a rock and giving a big bully stiches in his forehead, his family were friends of my grandparents. I got the strap twice!

I guess whey can be a byproduct of cheese making.
I do know whey is important for commercial uses.

I recall the buttermilk having bits of butter in it.

I can remember bits and pieces back to when I was 3-4 years old my gramps told me at onetime. Now I am lucky if I can remember something from 5 minutes ago.

I think the stuff when you strain yogurt is called whey too. I strain a lot of yogurt too. I don’t use the whey but it can also be used in baking

Sometimes I like to soak chicken in buttermilk to tenderize, it works good on fried type chicken.
I always make buttermilk pancakes.

I know when governments talk trade deals whey is talked about.

Evening folks. Still didn’t get my. Good 30.06 sighted in. Same old four inch pattern. Has new scope and used two different brands of ammo. I need to shoot a different weight and see if that’s the issue. And after that I’d try new scope rings. The bore of the barrel is shiny with sharp rifling so I don’t think there is an issue there. I did get my crappy 30.06 adjusted. It’s a turd, but groups very well. At least I have something to shoot with next weekend when season opens. Split some firewood after that. Fixing to run to town and get one of those hand crafted dominoes pizzas

 

[oldmaninbc]

I like them thin with crispy edges

I like mine thick and fluffy with a nice cook to them.

I use to work at a historic site down the road. The mayor and volunteer fireman/women would come to the site and put on a pancake breakfast once a summer. Big turnout always, I think that's where I had my first lessons in pancake making.
I would mostly order pancakes/french toast at the local restaurant where I lived for30 years. Now I make my own buttermilk pancakes.

I like to use my Workmate for sighting in rifles.
A guns got to have a heavy fore end like a bull barrel for me to hold it steady.

I think I’m going with waffles instead

Waffles are good, the Mrs just told me she gave our waffle maker to the thrift store, we were not using it and it was taking up space.

I have a hard time holding my camera still, pictures come out blurry on me.

Could not imagine trying to site a rifle or fire one with accuracy.

That's what I like to make, vegetable lasagna. Freeze some for later.

I'd have to have a nice crunchy bread to go with it.

That’s right. ombc pointed that out too. Makes sense with the whole ‘curds and whey’ poem.

I shoot from a bench. When I hunt I am in a stand or a blind. So I can prop up on something. I would dare make a free handed shot.

I use to have a steady hand and could make a good shot for game or plinking. Not anymore, old age is causing me to have a bit of a shake.

During the summer when at the flea market I have a walking stick that has a U shaped top added to the stick. I have several men every year ask is my stick used for hunting.
