That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for November 20, 2020

“Why don’t you carry this pail into the house instead of painting me, you artistic dilettante?”

Hey, Maude, why is the city slicker standing over there giggling? You’d think he’s never seen a cow being milked.

What’s with the ‘flying milkmaid’ off on the right side?

“When you’re done with that bull, go milk the cow.”

The 60 Minutes crew has arrived to investigate the sanitary conditions (especially of the milk jugs.)

No, Constanza, that’s not the way. You squeeze and gently massage and pull down. You do not try to yank it off!

The cows all tried to get in Miriam’s queue because being milked by her was a teat treat.

the start of another brand new day at heifers Я us…

“But Liza! There’s a hole in that bucket! Dear, dear Liza. . .”

“Uh, a little privacy please?”

Who milks the almonds and soy?

’e looks over de lovelies hard at woik and wonders, dairy interrupt ’em.

Hey Sis….I’m still trying to figure out why my boyfriend keeps telling me “Why buy the cow when I can get all the milk I want for free!” He knows Dad doesn’t want to sell any of his cows.

The only holiday we can still celebrate in the age of COVID.

“You talkin’ to ME?”

Photobombing the artist’s attempt to capture the shy cow who would be out of here – if not chained to the tree.

She can never be udderly sure/ of her radiant rustic allure./ For does she beguile/ by the warmth of her smile/ or is it the scent of manure?

" ‘Cold hands, warm heart’ may be a great sentiment, but it will still get you such a kick. ‘Contented cows’ my butt!"

Call 1-900-HAN-DJOB.

What are you laughing at kid, you fall from there so often you have to wear a helmet?!

What are you on about? Righty tighty lefty loosey doesn’t work at all!

You talking to me?

“I can’t wait for Dr. Jenner to come up with an easier way to prevent smallpox.”

“Beat it Jack. I’ll go up the hill with you after I finish here.”

“Okay. Don’t forget the pail.”

“Course not…idiot”

Pre-industrial filling stations.

THAT’S where milk comes from?? G’wan, pull the other one! :>)

You throw that apple, kid, and there won’t be any milk for your oatmeal. Also, you won’t be sitting down to eat.

“I’ll get to you in a minute, Arturo. If my hands don’t cramp, that is.”

Why is Papa so mad? We got home before the cows this morning.

Margarette, being a bit retarded, didn’t get much milk from the bull. but the milking was fun for her.

Oh … look Bertha! Another voyeur … just watches and doesn’t DO anything …

Will this take long? We have to get breakfast ready.
