Ellen Degeneres just called the Farm!

Wow! The farm received a call from Ellen Degeneres. She is promoting her new West Coast time slot of 4PM and was taking a tour thru Burbank. A random stop at my brother's place led to an introduction to Nina and a phone call to FarmGirl. But we were out of range and missed it. At least she left a message! So, Ellen, what is in your milk?
