THE DESILU DAIRY
Milk!  It does a sitcom good!
Tumblr media
The Desilu Dairy is in business providing milk, cream, and yogurt to the Queen of Comedy!  Mooo!
Tumblr media
At their Chatsworth Ranch, Lucy and Desi had a dairy cow named the Duchess of Devonshire. Devonshire Cream is a clotted cream dairy product produced from North Devon Cattle in Cornwall and Somerset England.
Tumblr media
“The Elves” (1949) ~ Liz (Lucille Ball) and George (Richard Denning) arrive home from vacation to find that someone has been ordering strawberry ice cream from the milkman every day, and the pink trail leads to the doorstep of their new neighbors.
Tumblr media
Upon arriving home, the Coopers notice that their porch has been painted white. Upon closer inspection, they realize it isn’t paint - but milk. Their ‘milk card’ has been tampered with to order strawberry ice cream while they were away - yet none is found. During the early part of the twentieth century, dairy products were usually delivered to homes, rather than shopped in a market. The milkman was part of daily life. Housewives would leave notes (or cards, as above) to request items outside their standing delivery order: Milk, eggs, yogurt, butter, and ice cream, were all offered. It was not uncommon to see back porches with milk boxes and or empty bottles ready to be returned to the dairy.  This service has all but disappeared in favor of supermarkets.
Tumblr media
“The Sleigh Ride” (1949) ~ Mr. Negley the mailman decides to use his motorcycle to pull the holiday sleigh, but the load proves to much and the milkman’s old horse is pressed into service. Unfortunately, the horse stops at every milk stop on his route. In the days before milk truck delivery, the dairyman in rural America would deliver dairy products by horse and wagon.  
Tumblr media
“The Gum Machine” (1949) ~ When George finds the cream for the coffee has soured, he insists Liz tell the milkman about it - stand up for her rights. The milkman arrives, delivers the milk, and then leaves. Liz chickened out. George calls him back to tell him Hogan’s Frolicking Milkmaid Cream was sour. The milkman (Hans Conried) says that Mr. Hogan will take it out on the cow!  He gives them free items instead of losing their business.
MILKMAN: “You see, we can’t afford a radio program!”
Tumblr media
“Valentine’s Day” (1949) ~ When Mr. Negley the butcher storms off, Katie the maid (Ruth Perrott) isn’t too bothered. She has a date with the milkman instead! She’s written him a poem which she left it in an empty milk bottle.
I love you, dear, don’t be surprised. Leave two quarts of homogenized!
Tumblr media
“The Gossip” (1952) ~ When Lucy overhears a juicy story about Grace Foster running away with the milkman, Ricky bets her she can’t go without gossiping. To win the bet, Lucy enlists the milkman and a jealous Mr. Foster in her scheme. 
MILKMAN: “He’s after me!  All my milk’s gone sour!” 
Tumblr media
Bobby Jellison played the milkman, the “cottage cheese Casanova” and “cow juice peddler” (as Bill Foster calls him).
MR. FOSTER: “From now on, we drink goat’s milk!”
Tumblr media
“Lucy’s Bicycle Trip” (1956) ~ The gang bikes from Italy to France and takes shelter in a barn for the night. For breakfast, the farmer brings them bread and cheese, but the milk must come from the cow!  
Tumblr media
Lucille Ball was able to produce one good stream of milk from the cow, but she didn’t think the lights caught the stream enough for it to show on camera. Writer Madelyn Pugh later said, 
"It was the mangiest cow I’d ever seen. I went down to the set, and Lucy said, ‘You wrote it, YOU milk it!’” 
Tumblr media
Lucille Ball shared the cover of a March 1960 issue of “The Police Gazette” with a cover story claiming that “Milk Can be the Drink of Death”!
Tumblr media
“Together For Christmas” (1962) ~ After trying in vain to share their holiday traditions, Lucy and Viv decide to go back to traveling to their respective relatives for the holidays. Lucy says she left a note for the milkman. 
Until the end of the 1960s or so, most suburban homes had daily milk delivery, which involved leaving milk bottles on the porch (sometimes in a milk box). If a customer did not wish to have milk (or other dairy products) delivered that day - or for a period of days - it was standard procedure to ‘leave a note for the milkman’.
Tumblr media
“Lucy Discovers Wayne Newton” (1965) ~ Newton sings an ode to his dairy cow, “Bessie the Heifer,” a 1951 country-western novelty song.
Tumblr media
Bessie turns up again in the final recording studio sequence - with all Newton’s other farm animals. 
Tumblr media
“Lucy and the Countess Lose Weight” (1965) ~ On a lunch break at the health farm, Lucy and the Countess realize if they want a drink with lunch, they are going to have to milk a cow. 
Tumblr media
To calm Bossie the cow while Lucy milks her, the Countess hums “The Blue Danube”. Lucy punctuates the downbeat with squirts of milk from the cow’s udder.  
Tumblr media
“Guess Who Owes Lucy $23.50?” (1968) ~ Van Johnson sings “Happy Birthday to You” to Ethel - the prize dairy cow of a Texas oil tycoon. 
Tumblr media
“Lucy the Shopping Expert” (1969) ~ Lucy teaches Kim about getting the best deals in the grocery store. In the dairy aisle, Lucy loses control of the nozzel on a can of whipped cream. 
Tumblr media
“Lucy’s Lucky Day” (1971) ~ Lucy goes on a game show named “The Milky Way to Riches” that is sponsored by the Dover Dairy. 
Tumblr media
When Mr. Larson the milkman (Billy Sands) rushes in with good news, Lucy teases him by guessing that Elsie the Cow had triplets. Elsie was the cartoon cow mascot of the Bordon Dairy Company from 1936 until it went out of business in the mid-1990s. Larson tells Lucy that she has won Dover Dairy’s customer of the year and will receive a free pint of raspberry apricot yogurt every week for a year.
Tumblr media
“Lucy and the 20/20 Vision” (1971) ~ In order to pretend to be surprised by Harry at the door, Lucy acts as if she was putting out the milk bottle. At the time, rural delivery of milk and other dairy products to residential homes was common. In order to ‘recycle’ the milk bottles, homeowners would put the empty bottles on the porch at night, so the milkman could take them away early the next morning. A famous example of this was seen in the closing credits of the primetime cartoon sitcom satire “The Flintstones” (1960-66, inset photo).
Tumblr media
“Lucy, the Other Woman” (1972) ~ Lucy's milkman has a crush on her but his angry wife (Totie Fields) thinks Lucy is having an affair with the dairy deliveryman. Herbie Faye plays Lester Butkus the milkman. According to the insignia on his hat, he works for the Cloverleaf Dairy. This means that in the year since “Lucy’s Lucky Day” the Carter family has switched dairies. 
Tumblr media
Mr. Butkas brings Lucy a free pint of banana fudge yogurt, adding to his wife’s conviction that he’s sweet as cream over Lucy.   
Tumblr media
The Butkus living room. A milkman lives here!

Sky, ugly sobbing into Wars scarf: I hate Hylia so much that manipulative little bitch but she's also Zelda my sun my whole world how could I ever truly hate her I love her so much *more ugly sobbing sounds*
Twilight, by Legend's side: *completely zoned out and unresponsive occasionally downing shots like it's water*
Four: *facing the corner holding an animated conversation with either himself or his shadow*
Time&Wind: *singing obnoxiously loud, clinking and slamming their milk bottle and flagon like it's some kind of instrument*
Hyrule&Wild: *lying face down under the table in a pile* zzZzzZ
Wars and Legend, now deeply regretting dragging them to the tavern: WOW, literally none of us are okay.

Functional Milk Bottle Warmer for The Sims 2
Tumblr media
Original objects meshes are from Somik&Severinka, low poly. This object is cloned from the Smart Milk Machine but I removed the effects and make it available for one bottle at time instead of 5. Also it doesn't have a "limit" for use, so you can make all the bottles you want forever. I decided to maintein the failure animation because it's funny to see, but there will be no consequences because the Warmer produces standard milk and not smart one. However I decided to add a Chamomille option to this Warmer; your sims can choose to prepare it and when toddlers drink it, they will be instantly sleepy, so you can put them directly into the crib. This "sleepiness" won't affect babies because I tought that it's not necessary as they are calm and nice mostly of the time... In any case, this Warmer like the original Smart Milk Machine works only when Toddlers are in the Lot.
You can choose my default replacement for the milk bottle but it's not necessary. The Warmer is functional with every replacement bottle you have or the original one. However for the Chamomille, the Bottle package is REQUIRED. Found in Small Appliances, price 150.
