Once upon a time

A boy met a girl and asked her on a date to see the movie “The Princess Bride.” They loved the movie, fell in love, got married and had a bunch of kids. The boy was a “farm” boy at heart, and asked his “princess” if they could buy a cow. She answered, “As ewe wish.” They named her “Buttercup” and Buttercup Ranch & Creamery was born.
