Newbie from Iowa

valerielynn · Sep 24, 2008

Hey everyone!!
My name is Valerie and I live in Iowa. I am new to this forum. I thought I would drop in and say hello! I have been writing short stories since I was young but I recently started writing again (I started writing again at the beginning of 2008 but I stopped for a couple of months cause I was having health problems).

I think I joined this forum at the beginning of 2008 but I stopped visiting the forum cause I had some health problems that I needed to deal with. I thought I would rejoin the forum so I could meet other writers and maybe hone my writing skills more.

Welcome Valerie. Goat milk and AW will make you strong again.

Hey, where's Cactus? Why isn't she asking about popcorn?

How do you like your popcorn?

Hey bramble! Goat milk? What are the health benefits of goat milk? Just curious!

bramble · Sep 24, 2008

I stole it from "Heidi".

But, lots of people who are lactose intolerant can handle goats milk. Something about the fat being distributed more evenly- makes it hard to make goats milk butter, but easily digested by most.
