I also want FOREVER 21~(part 2)

Yes. After I finished the goat milk soap. The next destination is milking cow. Moooo~mooo =)

Here is the area of Tamrookum Queensland. From Kooralbyn to Tamrookum only took approximately 10 minutes. But the dairy farm is not beside the road, after passed through the uneven, rugged road. Finally...

I saw YOU!!!

This is what we thought about dairy cow when we were kids- ONLY black and white. (Effects of advertisement of Nestle milk powder? lol)

First gang, say HI~

Silage (Wth something obstructed my sigt???)

This farm has a very very very BIG milk vat. But the milk collector is coming everyday.

Guess how many dairy cows they have?

This is the cup of milking. Hehe, purposely took the no. 38.

(Chinese will knows what it means)

Rotary milking system

Look at the number, it can let 50 cows standing upside at the same time.

Now, they are coming......

Mooo~mooooooooooo~

SPEED is very important because it is rotating when you want to put the cup on teats.

Lalala, i was trying my best because the cow kept shaking her body.

Done!

Then, I moved to another side to find the farm's boss.

What is he doing? 

Yeah, spraying disinfectant to prevent the bacteria attacks cows' teats after milking.

So now, my turn to do this =.=

Pong !

SUDDENLY a cow fall down.

Actually she was stucked in that space since the system is keep moving and rotating.

and she can't get up!!!

She is huge~

4 people were push, pull, push and pull to help her get up.

Luckily she quite cooperated with them. haha

Tang Tang, feed the calves.

They are separated because want to teach them how to drink milk ONE by ONE.

After they grew up and can drink milk themselves just put them together. Like this.

Drinking milk~

Bobby is a kind and funny women.

It's true!

SHIT 

While we were feeding the calves, those cows were slowly slowly walked out from the yard and been chasing to another area.

Then, they get feed again. Lol

TANG TANG TANG~

this is the main purpose today! DIY goat milk soap*_*

Ingredients:

Pure Goats Milk

Oils: Olive,Castor,Palm,Coconut,Almond,

Grapeseed and Rice Bran.

Sodium Hydroxide.

Botanicals and Clays used for colouring and 

Essential Oils if fragranced.

Main character: frozen PURE goat milk

Break it down and mix with caustic soda

 Then added those luxury oils

 Mixed it, stirred well~~~

 WEAR glove and start my jobs la~

 As the chemical reaction with air, the liquid become harder and harder, so TIME management is super important. Also, we need to presSSSS hard into the mold to avoid 'bubble' in the soap.

 Patricia purposely prepared different types and shapes molder for us =D

 This is the normal mold she uses.

 Focus focus focus~

I used "9 cows 2 tigers" energy to finish this =='''

 Heheh, then started my 'cookies' project.

 Patricia and me were very serious.

I was making cookies and thinking of someone~heheh

Ding~~~my special heart shape soap~who wants?

 Already products there.

 It's cute

 Mirror mirror on the wall?
