Mozzarella Cheese made from goat milk. I tried this the other night and the kids really like it. It tastes like mozzarella cheese !!!!! How neat it was that it turned out. You soak it in salt water for the final step and it really needs it. I tasted a middle part and it tasted goaty to me without that salt on it. I took one gallon of milk and it made this small Corelle bowl of cheese. I have a gallon of whey left over. I could have taken the whey and immediately made ricotta cheese from it (book says that's the best time) but I'd been on my feet all day and it was late so next time I make cheese I hope to try it. Unfortunately, Snowball is going to the butcher tomorrow. We cannot control this goat and catch it to milk it therefore, we will have a bit less milk.
Couponing!!! I love it when I get a great deal on a shopping trip and I love to share it with others. One of the things with couponing is I don't use many products that have "junk" in them like dyes, perfumes, disodium EDTA, parabens, etc. Yesterday, I was able to coupon and choose products called free and clear or for sensitive skin. They can still contain some unfavorable substances but I consider them a better choice. Right now, we really need the savings. I paid $21.56 for these items. Without coupons and Target gift cards they would have been $62.13. It doesn't seem that so few products could be that much but I had $10 in gift cards and $32 in coupons. I had 2 coupons for each product (one Target and one manufacturer). I had $4 off the razors (making them $2.50 a piece), I had $1.75 off the shaving creams (making them $0.58 each) and I got a $5 gift card for buying two Playtex boxes plus I had a $2 off coupon for each box making each box $2.50 a piece when they were originally $6.99 each. I had $2.50 off each bottle of Downy or Tide. I tried to buy the cheapest bottle making each one half price but I got home and noticed I messed up. I bought a bigger bottle for one spending $2 more than I would have had to. I always buy the smaller getting the cheapest price because these deals will keep coming around and I do stock up on these things. I don't use the women's shave cream but found they make a great graduation gift when combined with the razors. It isn't any fun to coupon unless you can give them away so I was able to give away 7 coupons yesterday saving them a total of $10.25! :)
