Early Morning Milking

We have decided to try plant based milk for awhile. Several things have influenced this decision. First, animal (cow) milk is expensive! Second, raising cows (for milk or meat) distresses the environment (see reference to Food, Inc in earlier post). Third, having oats on hand is an easy way to make milk as needed.

As one may surmise from the last sentence above we are starting with oat milk. Other plant based milks include almond and soy. If oat does not work out we'll try almond. Soy is out because it wreaks havoc on the thyroid, and my thyroid is already quite touchy.

Thanks freecycle for the new (to us) blender!
