Farmers sharing their life every day on the farm.

Nothing is more believable then a story from one who lives it first hand. That is the best part about living on the dairy. There is no other feeling like the one you get when you spend time with your animals and take care of the land.

There are many groups that continue to criticize dairy and they aren't even connected to a dairy directly. I haven't quite figured out what makes them an expert. Usually the anti-agricultural bashers don't have any of the message they are passing on correct. I haven't figured out why they would spend time passing along negative comments just to get attention.

As a dairy producer and nutritionist I can tell you the facts! Dairy is important in a healthy diet and it contains 9 essential vitamins and minerals that we can't get from any other food.

Do the body good by drinking milk or eating dairy each day!

Celebrating the oreo cookie and it's partnership with milk

Who likes a cold glass of milk and an oreo cookie? I know I do! The oreo cookie celebrated it's 100th birthday the other day! There are not many products that can boast that kind of success. With every package of oreo cookies comes a feeling that can take you back to your childhood. Families for 100 years have enjoyed this treat and obviously these delectable treats have stayed around for a reason.

I was reading the other day about how many different ways you can eat an oreo. I was amazed how much thought went into consuming this cute little cookie.

Don't forget next time you put that bag of oreo cookies in your cart, go straight to the dairy case and pick up your wholesome milk! It does the body good!

Priorities!

What works best for my family is that the priorities in life are relationships, needs, feelings, and people. I think a lot of young people these days are lacking the commitment to a relationship. Everything in our world changes so quickly and is disposable that is how some people view relationships.

I prefer eye-to-eye contact and enjoy talking to someone face-to-face versus a text or e-mail. I want to see facial expressions and then I can judge how to deal with the situation.

We have lost the art of communication and need to work on strengthening our skills and spend time listening to people and enjoying each others company.

Secrets to successful aging!

How we age is totally up to us, and I know that I like being in charge of my own destiny. Be nice to yourself and befriend your brain. Learning new things are so important, which includes physical and social activity. Playing the piano is my mental positive challenge that I really enjoy each day. It just takes me away from the little stresses in life.

Don't be afraid to play in the big game!

It seems appropriate at this time in my life to read the quote about playing in the big game. My family and friends have been supportive about my new adventure and it has made it easy for me to jump feet first into my new adventure.

I plan on opening the doors to PerKup Elkhorn LLC and getting into the big game and learning what it takes to win.

I definitely want it and am determined to give fantastic service and provide amazing hand-crafted drinks. The atmosphere is the best part as you don't feel like you are in the city limits at all.

Keeping up the motivation

Sometimes it is hard to keep up the motivation, but it is always good to keep striving to be the best you can be. I have noticed that my daughter really appreciates the fact that I stand up for what I believe in. It is important to teach young woman to believe in themselves and to make confident, educated decisions. There are so many young people that don't have a good role model to follow.

Whenever my daughter has a lot of homework and committments she goes right after it and doesn't stop until the work is done at a high level. She has learned to perform to a very high level because the rewards will be better.

Honestly, after striving to be the best you can, can become very natural, but you just need to remember to stay grounded.
