(Above: A particularly healthy looking group of tomatoes.)
Active Summary: After awaking, I performed the daily regimen of calisthenics, writing, and a beef pasture check with Padre. This was followed by a return to Jacobhouse where I wrote for about one more hour before heading back outdoors for the remainder of the morning. The ensuing few hours were spent tending to a number of Master Blend customers*, neatening the freezer room, caulking the various holes within the same room (around the windows / the double doors where many spiders were gleaning entry / the air-conditioner in the office area), and preparing / cooking some frozen sirloin steaks** for lunch.
(7:57 PM Update:) Afternoon activities entailed Master Blend inventory management, tending to another customer, and writing out a couple emails to people interested in the so-called ‘Half-Cow’ program. A brief rest was ensued by cattle-related activities, including: feeding bovines, pitch-forking feed, checking the field for ailing animals / returning new mothers to their calves, helping Padre prepare / give three IV’s to calves experiencing some form of diarrhea or heat exhaustion, and performing the evening beef pasture check. Throughout this time, I also made up 14 bags of Moo-Magic with Padre and tended to various Master Blend related tasks, such as: inventory collecting, yet another sale to a nice couple who arrived in a Tesla, and re-neatening the freezer room***.
Just another day of Wagyu shenanigans. This is one of the calves that Padre and I ended up IV’ing. It’s unique position was probably (at least partly) caused by its drunkard-like condition. 
A bunch o’ Wagyus. 
Gratin potatoes and Aneta’s cabbage salad.

Final Note: After finishing this evening’s entry, I intend to walk over to Padre’s studio and eat a dinner of left-over gratin potatoes and Aneta’s cabbage salad.
*One hefty fellow was particularly excited about finding our trove of beef; his gesticulations and mannerisms were very reminiscent to those of Danny DeVito.
**At some point soon, I intend to make an instructional video on how to do this. To summarize briefly, these are the steps:
- Preheat grill at maximum flame for ~ 5-7 minutes, and preheat oven to 350 F.
- Slather the frozen steak in olive oil and salt.
- Place frozen steak on the preheated grill.
- After four minutes, flip the steak and let it sit on the high-heat grill for another 3 minutes.
- Place grilled steak onto a baking sheet, turn off the preheated oven, and put the baking sheet into the oven for 5-10 minutes (for rare to medium respectively).
- Enjoy.
***The freezer room was quite comfortable this afternoon due to the presence of a running air-conditioner.
