A while back I found the most lovely blog, Beef and Sweet Tea, about a 5th generation beef cattle farm in the south. (Or perhaps the blogger, Emily, found me. I can’t quite remember exactly how that worked.)
I am not ashamed to admit I am completely enamored of the way Emily writes.
It’s very southern – like an easy, friendly drawl – so fluid with humor and beauty as she writes and shares photos of agriculture and whatever else suits her fancy. (See, I start writing about Emily and I’m throwing in phrases like “suits her fancy.” We don’t say that often enough here in the cold north country.) Whenever I read her posts, I want to sink down into my couch, put my feet up, sip my glass of wine and just enjoy.
Which, of course, I usually do.
A few months ago Emily contacted me about doing a guest post on double yolks, and of course, I immediately jumped at the chance. Notice I said several months ago. It’s taken me a while, but I finally made good on my promise this week. (Emily, by the way, was completely flexible and wasn’t worried in the least about my forthcoming post. I also like that about her.)
I am honored to be included on her blog today. As such, you MUST follow the link to the post on Emily’s blog; it’s a requirement. Seriously. I mean it. (Think of it like a field trip! And you’ll read all about her hen named Bobby Lou.)
And please, if you have a few minutes, while you are there please take a full gander at Emily’s blog – you’ll learn about her family’s farm (she posts all sorts of agriculture-related information on Thursday) and some of her favorites (always on Friday). It’s a delight, I promise!

You are ever so generous and kind, Lara. 🙂 Thanks for making this such a fun protein adventure!
Likewise, Emily – I’d love to do it again, this time with a beef focus of some kind! 🙂
