A smattering of cows, cooking, parenting and marriage tales, running and rodeoing all wrapped up in my Christian faith. I hope you'll follow along with the beats of Buzzard (that's me) on FB, WP, Insta and Twitter! Holler if y'all have any questions!

Started my day out with Jeniffer Vickery Smith on RFD-TV's Market Day Report speaking about the importance of agriculture voices in today's media landscape.

Also talked about my upcoming appearance on the Dirt Diaries podcast with RanchHer/FarmHer - will share it here when it airs!

Happy Wednesday!

Hunger depresses me.
๐Ÿ˜”
Not personally in an "I'm hungry" way but in a "This is the richest nation in the world and we have hungry children and people in every county in America."

Roughly 47 million people live in food insecure homes - about 14 million of those are children. This is wrong in so many ways - we raise and produce way too much food in the U.S. for so many people to be going hungry.

In our community, the 4-H club I assist in leading held a food drive for the local food bank. Our church is doing the same. And while these are noble efforts for the holidays, the reality is that people suffer hunger year round.

I'm donating to Feeding America on this Giving Tuesday for a variety of reasons and here's why I think you should, too:

- They receive a 4-star rating โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ - the highest rating available from Charity Navigator - they are legit. They are Forbes' #1 charity and 98% of all donations are put directly into programs and services that help people facing hunger.

- They have 60,000 partner agencies nationwide and provide 6.6 BILLION meals to tens of millions of people every year.

- Feeding America also supports programs to improve food security among the people they serve.

- They bring attention to the social and systemic barriers that contribute to food insecurity in our nation.

- They advocate for policy and legislation to prevent people from going hungry in the first place.

- One cause I particularly love is Feeding America's support or programs that prevent food waste. We can't feed people if we're throwing food in the trash!

Now through 12/5, Tony Robbins is double-matching all donations so your gift will be amplified 2x!

I hope you'll join me in supporting a very worthy cause. Thank you for being here. I posted my receipt in the comments - I never ask my followers to donate if I'm not willing to as well.

THESE TWO MANTRAS
.. mean so much to me. I have built my career on these two thoughts. The first, Luck Looks Like Hard Work, talking about hard work and how it translates to luck in my career, on our ranch and in the rodeo arena. I have a keynote about this topic and it's become my calling card of sorts.

The second - Stop. Blaming. Cows. is another mantra I try to spread far and wide. Cows are not the scapegoat for climate change, the economy or our nation's health.

Both of these thoughts, which have played such a huge hand in my career, are now designs in my s h o p which is open and functioning today on Cyber Monday!

Use BUZZARD to e-v-a-s (read that backwards) through tonight Farm Focused and get an awesome cap if you drop fourdy!

People won't stop blaming cows until we tell 'em!

TELL ME THE BEST THING YOU BOUGHT YESTERDAY!
๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป
I got my kids some much needed new shoes and stocked up on my favorite skin-allergy-friendly makeup products.

While you're sitting at home in the cold, wet weather watching football today, I'd love your attention to my humble little shop. All the designs are my ideas and help with content creation costs (Vimeo, Canva, tripods, microphones and iPhone aren't cheap ๐Ÿ˜‚ ).

Your support also helps with jr basketball fees, groceries, jr. rodeo sponsorships and all the other costs of life.

I appreciate you all so much for being here - your support, voices, clicks, comments, shares and kind messages mean so much. Thank you for helping me keep this dream alive!

Now through Monday at 11:59 pm use code BUZZARD to save AND with every $40 purchase, get a fun comped hat from Farm Focused!

This date was planned months ago when we lined out breeding schedules based on the Thanksgiving holiday, when we would need to give hormone injections for syncing heats and junior rodeos! So we canโ€™t really do anything about it other than get it done - when the cows are in heat, they need AId (artificially inseminated), thereโ€™s no wiggle room

Super glad Iโ€™ve got these lightweight Udder Tech Inc. overalls or my jeans would be absolutely ruined.

*udder tech didnโ€™t give me any $ to post this, I just love these overalls! I have a pair of their pants, too, that I wear over my jeans at muddy rodeos.

"Have you ever been going about your daily grind, minding your own business, and then out of nowhere you catch a stray consequence of someone elseโ€™s actions?

Thatโ€™s how some farmers and ranchers are feeling after the past few weeksโ€™ actions โ€” and words โ€” coming out of Washington D.C."

A NOTE ON RESPONSIBILITY AND CHILDREN/PARENTING

Earlier today, this image was accompanied by praise for my daughter and the responsibility she showed caring for a bucket calf. While my intentions to brag on her came from a place of love, my words, however unintentional, hurt people who are like family to me.

Children are like snowflakes - each one is as different as can be. No two the same. And anyone with children can tell you that two kids can be raised in the same circumstances and environment, and even family, but be as different as night/day. Not bad child vs good child, but different.

I can't in good faith leave content on my page that harms the heart of my friends. Thank you for being here, I'll be back tomorrow. Be well and do good.

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." -- John F. Kennedy

My Grandpa Ken Baker in Normandy, June, 1944, and my Grandpa Bill Buzzard in the Navy, serving in the Korean War - early 1950s. I don't have pictures but several members of my husband's family also served and we are equally as thankful for their dedication.

Yep, sounds about right
๐Ÿ™„ ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜‚

In all seriousness, the only "UNCLEAN" food is food that is physically dirty and hasn't been washed. Foods vary in their nutritional value but that doesn't mean there are bad foods.

Don't fear your food, please!
