All it ever does is rain (leaving some time to think dairy)

I'm dying to get outside to plant some more things. Next up: Swiss chard. But every time I get a few minutes to plant, the skies open. Planting in mud is not a good idea. Remember, working wet soil is lethal to soil structure.
The good news is that the carrots have made their debut. They germinated on Sunday. So, we now have peas, carrots, spinach, two kinds of lettuce, and onions all growing in our garden. I hope to have some photos soon (again, rain.)
In the meantime, I've been doing some research on dairy.
The good news is that the poundage of dairy includes liquid milk. So, drinking a gallon of milk would knock 8.6 pounds off of that 9.26 pounds of lower fat dairy I'm supposed to consume in a week. Still not sure I could stomach and additional 0.66 lbs. of low fat sour cream. Maybe I could do a third of a pound of sour cream and a third of a pound of low fat yogurt.
My other news is that I am looking into some lobbying data, and it turns out, not surprisingly, that there is a lot of cash in cows.
Stay tuned.
