Other guests include Rita Heikenfeld with Bible Foods, Gary Michuta from Hands On Apologetics, and Courtney Brown from Ruah Woods. Plus news, weather, sports and more… ***** St. Jerome’s Prayer for God’s Mercy O Lord, show Your mercy to me and gladden my heart. I am like the man on the way to Jericho who was overtaken by robbers, wounded and left for dead. O Good Samaritan, come to my aid. I am like the sheep that went astray. O Good Shepherd, seek me out and bring me home in accord with Your will. Let me dwell in Your house all the days of my life and praise You for ever and ever with those who are there. Amen. ***** RECIPES FROM RITA: WINTER TABOULEH Ingredients 1 cup bulghur cracked wheat, #2 grind 1 – 2 containers grape tomatoes, cut up small 3-4 green onions, sliced thin, green and white part both 1 bunch parsley, leaves only, chopped fine 1/2 or more English cucumber, unpeeled, chopped fine 1 bell pepper, chopped fine Several radishes, sliced thin or chopped fine (optional) Cumin to taste — start with 1 teaspoon Dried mint and basil to taste — start with 1 teaspoon each Salt and pepper 1/4 cup oil Lemon juice to taste Instructions Place wheat in bowl and rinse under cool water three times. (Why 3 times? Because my Mom said so!). Leave a thin veil of water after the third rinse on top to soften wheat. Let sit for 20-30 minutes, until water is absorbed and wheat is tender. It should be a little firm but still chewable. If not, add a bit more water and let sit a tad longer. Squeeze remaining liquid out. Add all vegetables and parsley in bowl, mixing gently. Add cumin, mint, basil, salt and pepper and mix. Add wheat, and mix. Add oil and mix. Taste for seasonings. Add lemon juice to taste. ***** Bill Schmitt is online at onword.net.

In your maternal tenderness and love, you revealed to the world the power and glory of your Son as our God and Redeemer. Intercede for your children that they may have the strength to endure their hardships and the courage to persevere in their faith. By your act of perfect faith, Christ was conceived in your womb to bring new life and light into this world. May your image inspire us to seek your help and spread your devotion to all who desire to know your Son and dwell in his Sacred Heart. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Thank you to Fr. Rob Jack for writing this prayer for today’s feast! ***** RECIPES FROM RITA TWO LAYER PEPPERMINT BARK Ingredients: 24 oz bittersweet chocolate – good quality 24 oz white chocolate – good quality 1 cup or so crushed peppermint 3⁄4 tsp PURE peppermint extract or scant 1/4 teaspoon food grade peppermint oil Instructions: Place peppermint candy in a large plastic bag and crush into small pieces with a meat pounder. Set aside.Line a 9 x 13-inch baking sheet (small sheet pan) with parchment paper and set it aside. Let sides hang over a bit to form a cradle to make it easier to lift bark out. Heat 4 cups of water in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Set a large glass bowl on the saucepan so the bottom does not touch the barely simmering water. Add the bittersweet chocolate to the glass bowl. Stir and slowly allow the chocolate to melt. Once most of the chocolate is melted and smooth, remove from heat, wipe bottom of bowl to remove any moisture or steam (any moisture if it hits the chocolate will cause it to seize), stir to smooth out completely, then pour onto the prepared baking sheet. Smooth to an even layer and sprinkle with 1⁄4 cup of crushed peppermint candy. This acts as a somewhat gritty surface which I think allows the white chocolate layer to adhere better. Let cool until firm, either in the refrigerator or even on the counter. You don’t want the chocolate real cold since it will be more difficult to spread the white chocolate on top and the layers adhere better together when the bottom layer is completely firm but not rock hard cold. (If it is real cold, let it sit out a bit to take the chill off, then proceed with white chocolate layer).Wash and dry the bowl thoroughly, and set over the barely simmering water. Add the white chocolate. Stir until most of the chocolate is melted, then remove from the heat. Stir to smooth out completely, and add the peppermint extract, stir, and pour over the bittersweet chocolate. Smooth to an even layer and immediately top with remaining peppermint candy pieces. Allow to cool at room temperature until hardened, 2-3 hours. Once the bark is hard, cut or break into pieces. Since the bark has hardened at room temperature, it won’t be rock hard and will be easier to break or cut into pieces.Store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to two weeks. TIPS Don’t use chocolate morsels/chips or the slabs of chocolate “bark” in the baking aisle that contain palm kernel oil, which may inhibit good bonding of the layers. High quality “white” chocolate will have sugar and cocoa butter listed among the first ingredients on the label. Don’t have peppermint extract? Sieve the candy cane pieces and the “candy dust” you shake out of the sieve can be stirred into the white chocolate layer for peppermint flavor, not as strong, but still good. Don’t use imitation peppermint extract which contains too much water and may cause the melted chocolate to seize. ***** BONUS RECIPE: PEPPERMINT WHITE HOT CHOCOLATE Ingredients: 20 or so oz white chocolate bars1 teaspoon peppermint extract or 1/4 teaspoon peppermint oil8 candy canes, regular size, crushed very fine1 quart each half & half and whole milk Instructions: Easy peasy. Follow instructions above for melting white chocolate and adding extract.After pouring white chocolate in pan and spreading into even layer immediately sprinkle with very finely crushed peppermint. Cool until solid. To make peppermint white hot chocolate:Heat half & half and milk to 160. Break up bark into piece that fit into mugs.Pour warmed milk in cups and let folks add bark to taste. ***** Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zinc Taste Test with Aqueous Zinc by Biotics Research.INSTRUCTIONS: Place a small amount of Aqueous Zinc solution in the mouth and hold for 30 seconds. Describe your initial taste according to the following categories (For accurate results, refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking for at least one half hour prior to test)                       Response #1: No specific taste or other sensation is noticed after the solution has been kept in the mouth for thirty seconds.  This strongly suggests zinc deficiency and favorable response to zinc supplementation.                  Response #2: No immediate taste is noticed, but after a few seconds a slight taste variously described as "dry", "mineral", "furry", or "sweet" develops.  This suggests zinc deficiency and favorable response to zinc supplementation.                     Response #3: Definite, though not strongly unpleasant taste is noted almost immediately and tends to intensify with time. This suggests zinc is likely inadequate with need for zinc supplementation. Response #4: A strong, unpleasant taste is noted immediately. This suggests zinc is adequate with no need for zinc supplementation.If you are a response 1, 2 or 3 we will add in a Zinc supplement separate from this Aqueous Zinc. This is only used to assess zinc status. Use this formula to retest zinc status every 2-3 weeks until the client tests sufficient.Recommended supplement if needed: Zinc Supreme by Designs For Health

Add the Sunflower Seeds and Cauliflower to the steamer basket. Cover the pan. Bring the water to a boil. Steam for 8 minutes. While the veggies and sunflower seeds are steaming, add the remaining cheese spices into a blender. Then add the steamed veggies and seeds along with 1/2 cup of hot water from the pan to the blender. Blend until smooth. In a saucepan, add 3/4 cup of water and Agar Agar. Stir until well combined. Bring contents to a boil. Cook for 4-6 minutes, continually stirring with a spatula. The Agar will thicken. Continue to stir until it starts to form into a thick jelly-like consistency. Immediately add to the blender with the cheese mixture and blend until completely smooth. Transfer the cheese contents into two containers lined with "cling wrap". Place the containers in the fridge, uncovered for at least 1 -2 hours. The longer the cheese chill the firmer it gets. Invert the firm cheese ball onto a plate. Garnish with spices and herbs. I prefer to sprinkle and press the spices and herbs into the cheese ball with my hand. Another option would be to sprinkle the herbs and spices onto a plate and then roll the cheese ball gently until coated as desired. Place onto a plate and serve. Enjoy! Note: The cheese ball can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 7-10 days.

The Tradition of Father’s Day is the topic for today. It’s two weeks away for those of us here in the US. But first, let me take a minute to say welcome to every new listener and welcome back to the veteran homestead-loving regulars who stop by to listen to the FarmCast every week. I appreciate you all so much. I’m so excited to share with you what’s going on at the farm this week. And a fantastic recipe for grilling on Father’s Day. Today’s Show Homestead Life Updates The Tradition of Father’s Day Gourmet Chevon Burgers Homestead Life Updates Our homestead life is humming along. Yes, I’m still way behind on taming the weeds in the garden, the beans still need to be planted. And to top it off, harvesting is beginning. I’ve already picked green peas for shelling and snow peas. I froze four packages and had plenty left over for several meals. Now the shelling peas need to be picked again. This time there will be lots and lots and lots of them. I may freeze some and can some. We’ll see. Freezer space is at a premium right now. The potatoes are ready to be dug up and dried and I have plenty of spring onions available to add fresh to any dish. Happy and good lamb news. We had a late arrival a few days ago. That brings our total to 10 lambs this year and zero loses. We’ve never had that kind of success rate. Mother nature usually has her way with at least one or two. We have been truly blessed this year. The herd shares are going gangbusters. Only a couple of slots left there. And so many are interested in the cheese. During the summer we offer milk, yogurt, butter and cream, while winter will provide lots of cheese and butter. My schedule may change in that area due to the requests of the herd share owners. Many want the cheese now in lieu of the milk. Next month their wishes will become reality. The quail are growing like crazy. Scott devised a way to alter their feeding trays so they don’t waste so much. That’s working out fine. The roosters are beginning to crow. It’s not a like a chicken at all. When I go and visit them and care for them, they are all standing in a row in front of the door looking out. They are so cute and funny. Scott is moving along with the creamery walls. And that’s about it for the homestead updates. Let’s get to the topic of the day. The Tradition of Father’s Day Last month we looked at the tradition of Mother’s Day. Today we look at the tradition of Father’s Day. And more importantly, why children need fathers (or at the very least father-figures) in their lives. Today retailers and marketers, in an effort to make a quick buck, have completely changed the original meaning of Father’s Day. A holiday that was created to honor dad and enumerate his special qualities is now used as a marketing tool. Such is the way of life in our very affluent country. Let’s take a look at the roots and history of Father’s Day. The Religious Roots and Tradition A customary day for the celebration of fatherhood in Catholic Europe is known to date back to at least the Middle Ages, and it is observed on March 19, as the feast day of Saint Joseph, who is referred to as the fatherly Nutritor Domini ("Nourisher of the Lord") in Catholicism and "the putative father of Jesus" in southern European traditions. This celebration was brought to the Americas by the Spanish and Portuguese, and in many countries Father's Day is still celebrated on March 19. The Catholic Church actively supported the custom of a celebration of fatherhood on St. Joseph's day from either the last years of the 14th century or from the early 15th century.   The History of Father’s Day in the United States Father's Day was not celebrated in the US, outside Catholic traditions, until the 20th century. As a civic celebration in the US, it was inaugurated in the early 20th century to complement Mother's Day by celebrating fathers and male parenting. There are two stories of when the first Father’s Day was celebrated in the United States. According to some accounts, the first Father’s Day was celebrated in Washington state on June 19, 1910. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd came up with the idea of honoring and celebrating her father while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon at church in 1909. She felt as though mothers were getting all the acclaim while fathers were equally deserving of a day of praise (Likely she would be displeased that Mother’s Day still gets the lion’s share of attention). Sonora’s dad was quite a man. William Smart, a veteran of the Civil War, was left a widower when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. He went on to raise the six children by himself on their small farm in Washington. To show her appreciation for all the hard work and love William gave to her and her siblings, Sonora thought there should be a day to pay homage to him and other dads like him. She initially suggested June 5th, the anniversary of her father’s death to be the designated day to celebrate Father’s Day, but due to some bad planning, the celebration in Spokane, Washington was deferred to the third Sunday in June. The other story of the first Father’s Day in America happened all the way on the other side of the country in Fairmont, West Virginia on July 5, 1908. Grace Golden Clayton suggested to the minister of the local Methodist church that they hold services to celebrate fathers after a deadly mine explosion killed 361 men. While Father’s Day was celebrated locally in several communities across the country, unofficial support to make the celebration a national holiday began almost immediately. William Jennings Bryant was one of its staunchest proponents. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge recommended that Father’s Day become a national holiday. But no official action was taken. In 1966, Lyndon B. Johnson, through an executive order, designated the third Sunday in June as the official day to celebrate Father’s Day. However, it wasn’t until 1972, during the Nixon administration, that Father’s Day was officially recognized as a national holiday. It took a while, but we got there. Fathers are celebrated in our country every year on the 3rd Sunday in June. Father’s Day Around the World Other countries also picked up on the idea of Father’s Day. It is, after all, quite profitable. While many followed suit by celebrating it on the third Sunday in June, some decided to honor dad on different dates. So, to make sure you know when to pay your respects to dear old dad wherever you may be, here’s a list of the two most prominent dates and associated countries where Father’s Day is celebrated around the world. March 19– The religious celebration, is observed in Angola, Belgium, Bolivia, Croatia, Honduras, Italy, Lichtenstein, Portugal, Spain, and Switzerland. Third Sunday in June– The US version, is also observed in Antigua, Bahamas, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Columbia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Guyana, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Jamaica, Japan, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Netherlands, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Slovakia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Switzerland, Trinidad, Turkey, United Kingdom, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe. A few made the list twice. Once for the religious celebration and the second for the secular celebration. Why Fathers are Important in a Child’s Life This is a topic I’m very interested in these days. In a time where men are often demonized at every turn for the smallest infraction, I feel the need to reiterate the facts and truth of the importance of men and father’s in the family. It is my opinion that way too many children are born today without a father’s loving presence. It has become common place for modern feminists to think they can “do it all” and they don’t need a man. It may be the biggest lie being perpetrated out there. I’ve spoken of this before and likely will again. It is detrimental to the health of women, their children and their relationships with the loving fathers of their children. It’s simply ridiculous to think that the full-time job of parenting and a full-time job providing financial income can be done at the same time. There simply aren’t enough hours in the day to do both simultaneously and do them well. The reason there was a separation of a wife and husband’s duties was not to somehow suppress the intelligence and creativity of women. Nope. It was simply the best arrangement for the best outcome of family cohesion and stability. There was never anything stopping women from having careers. In fact, many did have careers. It was a choice then and is still a choice now to be a wife and mother. And in today’s environment, having a career is still quite feasible after the little ones reach their teens and begin experimenting with adulthood. Moms will sometimes have lots more time to pursue whatever they desire.  The children are raised by someone else and jobs often become drudgery for working mothers today. According to an article a few years ago in the Huffington Post, woman are unhappier today than ever before. It’s no wonder. We have to make choices. No one can “do it all”. We all make choices. And sometimes the choice is simply a matter of timing. Kids now, career later. Do it all in a linear fashion as opposed to lumping it all into a limited 24-hour day. The traditional family evolved over time and has sustained itself over time because it works. It works to ensure that society moves forward in an orderly fashion. Sure, there are all kinds of fancy family configurations in our world today and all have value. All families have value. Having said that, it does not change the scientifically proven fact that children do best in a stable household with both a father and a mother. The special family configurations seem to be getting all the attention these days, which is great. I’m just bringing a bit of attention back to our traditional family structure. It’s what this podcast is all about. It is my opinion that the traditional family structure is being neglected and pushed aside. There are many reasons, but my current pet peeve is for the welfare state that encourages single motherhood and discourages fathers from being part of their children’s lives. Money and other resources are severely cut back if a man is present in the household. As I said, it encourages single motherhood. This makes the life of mother and children much more difficult than it would be with a man in the picture. But for many growing up in the second and third generation of welfare, they know no other life. They know no other way to survive. My heart goes out to them. Anyone can father a child, but being a dad takes a lifetime. Fathers play a role in every child’s life that cannot be filled by others or state provided financial benefits. The role of the father can have a large impact on a child and help shape him or her into the person they become. Fathers and Emotional Development Fathers, just like mothers, are integral in the development of a child’s emotional well-being. Traditionally, children look to their fathers to lay down the rules and enforce them. They also look to their fathers to provide a feeling of physical and emotional security. Children naturally want to make their fathers proud. An involved father can promote inner strength and personal growth. Studies have shown that when fathers are affectionate and supportive, it greatly affects a child’s cognitive and social development. It also instills an overall sense of well-being and self-confidence. Fathers are important to your children’s emotional development. Fathers Set the Bar for Relationships with Others Fathers not only influence who we are inside, but how we have relationships with people as we grow. The way a father treats his child will influence what that child looks for in other people. Friends, lovers, and spouses will all be chosen based on how he or she perceived the meaning of the relationship with his or her father. The patterns a father sets in the relationships with his children will dictate how they relate to and interact with other people. Fathers and Their Daughters Young girls depend on their fathers for security and emotional support. A father shows his daughter what a good relationship with a man is like. If a father is loving and gentle, his daughter will look for those qualities in men when she’s old enough to begin dating. If a father is strong and valiant, she will relate closely to men of the same character. Fathers and Their Sons Unlike girls, who model their relationships with others based on their father’s character, boys will model themselves after their father’s character. Boys will seek approval from their fathers from a very young age. As human beings, we grow up and mature by imitating the behavior of those around us; that’s how we learn to function in the world. If a father is caring and treats people with respect, the young boy will grow up much the same. When a father is absent, young boys look to other male figures to set the “rules” for how to behave and survive in the world. Enter social media and online father-figure personalities. Enter the gangs. Enter the unsavory characters that can lead naïve youngsters astray. Again, mothers need to be at home with their children and they need to have stable relationships with the father of their children. A two-parent household consisting of a man and a woman is the ideal situation. Fathers are just as important as mothers. The online community is filled with great people that can be role models. But why have a substitute? Why not continue the tradition that has worked for as long as there have been humans? Have we thought deeply about what we are leaving behind? That online community is also filled with evil people who wish to do harm to others – often targeting children and young adults. The primary job of a parent, I would argue, is to protect our children – to keep them safe from harm. We need to be there for them. Fathers need to be there for them. As you celebrate your father on the third Sunday of June, ask him to show you how to grill a delicious, grass-fed burger. Tell him you love him and how much you appreciate him. Gourmet Grilled Chevon Burgers This recipe calls for ground goat. It's a great alternative to the same old hamburger. Goat, or chevon as it is widely known, is a staple red meat for much of the world outside the US. However, you can use whatever ground meat you prefer. The instructions call for using a cast iron skillet with lots of butter or oil. However, the grill works just as well. What you Need 1-pound goat burger, grass-fed is preferable 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste) 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste) 1 teaspoon rosemary leaves, dried 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, dried 1 teaspoon cilantro, dried 1 teaspoon cumin, ground 1 medium onion, chopped 6 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter, divided Instructions Place the goat-burger in a mixing bowl, add Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, cilantro, and cumin. Mix well. In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium to high heat. Add the onion, lower the heat, and sauté for about 2 minutes until nicely browned and caramelized.  Add onions to burger mixture. Mix well. Shape into 4 patties.  In a cast iron skillet heat the remaining olive oil or butter over medium-to-high heat. Cook the patties in oil or butter until medium to medium-well, about 8 - 10 minutes on each side.  Notes NOTE 1: Don't skimp on the oil when using goat. Grass-fed chevon burger is very lean and needs the fat to help retain moisture and to prevent sticking. NOTE 2: As an alternative, you can use your gas grill.
