I think the absence of cows was explained away with Greensap milk, which I assume comes from some sort of plant. It's also possible not to have a mill around, would just have to crush grain by hand with some grinding stones.
Of course there are farms about so it's possible could have had a mill somewhere...character that lives in a mill, that'd be novel home ;)

Thanks, I thought there was something like that but I couldn't remember what the plant name was. I also wasn't sure if that was a universal milk substitute, as you couldn't make cheese from something like that. I'll try to use greensap milk wherever I can... save the cheese.
