Blossom Jack- fours years plus
Not that I write hundreds of entries a year-- but there is something of value to having a little history. I started Blossom Jack around the time my son Jackson turned 1 in 2007 and six months after my father passed away. The title came to me out loud as a dialogue with my husband. I wanted a name that might fit both genders and represent something that grows, grows beautifully and naturally. Blossom Jack came to me after a few tries and just coincidentally happened to be the name of the cow my husband had as a child in Sparks, Nevada. I had never known he had a cow before that conversation. Just for the record, his family cared for and got milk from Blossom Jack and then ate her, an urban homesteading tale from the early 70's.
