Early Christmas Present

I usually don't expect much for Christmas --I'm one of those that buy whatever I want myself. But...this year I asked for a 2 or 3 cup mini food processor--I'm not even picky about the brand since Bernina doesn't make one. There was even one sale at Walmart for $10 awhile back. So, you ask why I put pictures of these purdy black cows on my page?
Instead of a food processor under the tree, I got 38 gonna-be mama cows for an early Christmas present.

Do you think they want to come early for Christmas dinner and help me chop, dice and slice?

Ok, maybe you need to not hint about what you really want. I just write down what I want and give hime a list...This usually works. One year I got double everything on my list....38 and then you'll have at least 38 more with the babies. Surely one of those men folk can spring for a cheap food processor!

I'm glad your little Rachel is doing so well...I've been keeping track of her. You take care and have a wonderful Christmas...Hugs, Linda

OMG - what a sizeable gift! They all look great.

So glad that little Rachel is doing well - I cannot wait for you to report that she gets to home with her Mama.

Hugs and Merry Christmas to you and ALL your family.

I'm glad Rachel is doing well. Merry Christmas! Those cows are pretty, how could he resist? Did the caretaking of the cows come as a part of the present?

I would be very excited...as long as I got to blow some of next year's profits on fabric!
A belated Christmas greeting to you. I am so pleased to hear that your little Grandbaby is going well, what a trying time for all involved. It will make the sewing of the quilts all the more special! Is it likely this would happen next pregnancy? Or is it just a once off thing?
Love Tracey

So, 38 x 1.25 = 47 ... if a few of em "give" more than one calf.

Man o man ... I hope you don't have to bottle many of em!

Best Wishes,
