How I know the lowly, docile, easily domesticated bovine is a gift from Heaven:
- On January first, as usual, we roasted some prime rib of beef for family and friends: Pure ambrosia!
- Yesterday when I got up I stuck the leftover rib bones in the crock pot with a half gallon of BBQ sauce - and for supper: Pure sticky ambrosia!
- Every bit of meat is scrumptious, even the face, tongue and tail.
- There's a butt-load of leather on those suckers! (I need me some new cowboy boots!)
- Milk. And lots of it!
- The hooves: Pure stinky ambrosia! (Well, to our dogs, at least.)
- Their flatulence and droppings can be made into fertilizer or fuel. (If you want to.)
- They convert almost any kind of grass, grain or otherwise inedible plant material into everything above.
What more could you ask for? Thank you Heavenly Father.
