All this talk of cows, goats, mozzarella and pizza reminded me of an excursion while on a cruise that took us to a farm not far from Sorrento. It was beautiful. We sampled olives and meats and fresh mozzarella and wine of course while they did a demo of hand making mozzarella from scratch. Then we went on a brief walking tour of the place. The hillside farm had olive trees, grapes, and a variety of vegetables, as well as a few cows, goats, and chickens. As we walked down the hill, I heard horrendous bleating sounds from a goat pen next to the path. I hung back as the tour guide/family member went on with the group. The goat was in distress and I was concerned until I realized she was giving birth-to healthy triplets. I told the guide and she came back and checked on the goat in a rather nonchalant manner. We ended the tour at the farm's small winery, sampling their wine and limoncello and other liqueurs. We had pizza for lunch that afternoon.
The mozzarella looked fairly easy to make, actually.
