I did some googling, and found a whole other side to the PW story, very interesting. <br />At least when I read her blog now, I'll have my eyes wide open.<br />I found this pretty interesting http://www.abdpbt.com/personalfinance/how-much-do-bloggers-make-case-study-ree-drummond-aka-the-pioneer-woman/Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486219060874117495.post-60189793167039534642010-09-14T16:05:45.768-07:002010-09-14T16:05:45.768-07:00You do know that she was capital R rich way before...You do know that she was capital R rich way before the blog got successful? I kinda 'knew' about her because she used to be active on some homeschool boards. There's big money behind that blog & I know some people think that she got successful because of the blog - but it's the other way around. The blog got big because she's already successful. I think there was plenty of $ chucked at the whole enterprise...... They're huge land owners.....<br /><br />Which is not to take away at all from her unique voice, and her stories and humor etc. She's got all that in spades. :-) <br /><br />She has cooked 'calf nuts' several times already & about a year or so ago there was a long photo essay of one of her dd's with the big snippers doing the deed on a little boy calf & I almost barfed all over my screen..... <br /><br />Thx for the recommendation!hornblowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11428146299208610591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486219060874117495.post-7045213956718808912010-09-14T11:15:35.848-07:002010-09-14T11:15:35.848-07:00I haven't seen that PW post.

What floors me are the hundreds of people tripping over themselves to get their comments on there:) <br />But, I have to give credit to someone who has made quite a business for herself out of a blog.<br /><br />I checked out Big Bear Ranch, yep, that's the way to raise your animals, but I wonder how they castrate their calves? Will have to look and see if there are any regulations in the organic associations.<br /><br />Do you read Throwback at Trapper Creek on my blogroll?Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486219060874117495.post-28546464597124410442010-09-13T13:19:31.539-07:002010-09-13T13:19:31.539-07:00What an adorable photo of you guys!
Pioneer Woma...What an adorable photo of you guys! <br /><br />Pioneer Woman lost me - as if she cares LOL - as a reader ages ago over what I think is unnecessary gore & pain when it comes to separating boy cows from their testicles. Not only do they not do humane castration at her place, she seems to revel in the gore of it. Blech. Actually, that whole ranch smacks of ICK to me, esp compared to the ranching styles of places like www.bigbearranch.com <br /><br />I kind of liked Ree's voice but it all got to be too much..... & so, off with her head in my RSS reader :-)hornblowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11428146299208610591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486219060874117495.post-72284318438430302252010-09-10T10:53:00.156-07:002010-09-10T10:53:00.156-07:00Gotta Love Sisters!
