My one daughter is vegan, my other daughter is studying to be a holistic nutritionist, my husband loves meat. All of our friends and family have different diets, allergies, and food preferences. I am currently trying to figure out what to cook for Thanksgiving next week.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178290697351352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575499172466966020.post-15310461905147217372009-11-18T23:34:20.283+01:002009-11-18T23:34:20.283+01:00I wish I could come!!

The leftovers are the best!<br /><br />About the horse - friends of ours in Verona served some at a family dinner we were invited to. And eel. (at a different meal). They loved it! <br /><br />And, one other comment, I agree about the veal, but I wish people would also think about how chickens are treated. It's not pretty. <br /><br />Hope you are well!

Ok, it’s probably because they all have a garden or backyard.<br /><br />In any case, we once took a couple of rabbits as pets for the delight of our daughters. Oh they were so silky-furred and sweet! But bit by bit we realised what kind of monsters they were.<br /><br />Let’s forget they were sex maniacs mating several times each day and each night with loud shrieks, and that each time we had to separate them for any reason their screams were even louder when they finally got back together. Or that they gnawed all our furniture. Let’s forget this all. The worst thing were the babies!Every now and then they ate them ALIVE before our eyes! Not only our daughters were horrified, sickened. So we gave them away.Man of Romahttp://manofroma.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575499172466966020.post-77063969807761322022009-11-15T12:12:27.007+01:002009-11-15T12:12:27.007+01:00Yes please!
