I can get it for £1/lb in Summer and the price more than doubles in Winter which is when I use a lot more of it so buying now saves me a small fortune because I mostly give foody presents at Christmas like shortbread and cakes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16340429187911872470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-65565879926897377332011-08-01T21:57:50.123-05:002011-08-01T21:57:50.123-05:00Purchased a used upright freezer.

Many moons ago we used to slaughter our own hog, when B.'s father had a farm. B. plans to raise some when he retires next year. We had our first winter last year without venison in the freezer and it was missed. We don't eat much in the way of beef, except ground. It is just too hard on digestive and not good for you, really. Venison, like you said is much healthier. And we know they are "free range" and naturally fed. We slaughter our own, most of the time, unless, of course it comes at a holiday, when I am occupying the kitchen all the time.
