We met "Mr. Moo" and you can too!

I already mentioned the twice weekly markets here in Eastbourne.  Wednesdays and Sundays they put up the tents, load up the things and sell the stuff.  Purses, bric-a-brac, clothing, tie dye, fruit, bread and the best darn dairy products ever.  We know, because when we stopped at his shop, no fewer than two other people stopped by to tell us his stuff is the absolute best.  Then he shared the incredible story of a documentary that won awards in the US at the Sundance Film Festival.  We were speaking with one half of the founders of the "Hook & Son" Dairy.  In other words, "Mr. Moo" himself.  I can't wait to watch it now! "The Moo Man" is available on Amazon.

We sampled organic raw milk, cream, yogurt, and promptly bought all three plus some butter.  All of it UNPASTEURIZED!  Ironic given we had been told earlier about the UK's strong commitment to food safety and were unable to buy hair dye/stripper at the Salon we had our hair cut earlier that very day.   And again, all the eggs are stored at room temperature.  The cream is in a solid state, much like the consistency of yogurt.  The milk needs to be shaken before use, because the "cream rises to the top".  Not just a cheeky phrase, it's actually true.

I'm starting my day now with some Greek Yogurt, to which I added a touch of honey and oatmeal.  And PG Tips tea with homemade 1/2 and 1/2, e.g. a dab of solid cream and a splash of shaken, organic, unpasteurized milk, fresh from the grass fed cows who live 10 miles from here.  Mmmmm.  Great Grandpa Jensen on the farm in WI would be so tickled, I think:)
