My Blog: Christmas Dinner is being prepared!

Today on my walk in the park I saw Christmas Dinner being prepared:-)

In 100 days most New Zealanders will add mint sauce and gravy then patting a full stomach sigh "I've eaten too much"

Frugally challenged said...: Someone once asked me how I could eat lamb after seeing them in the field. My response was that when I see them I say, "Isn't that clever? Mobile lamb chops!"; 16 September 2018 at 22:08
Ann at Beadlework. said...: Oh Margaret, I don't like to think of things like this. I know that over here it's turkey but for some reason it seems less awful than those little cute lambs.; 17 September 2018 at 09:18
Margaret said...: Ann, with the exception of vegetarians most NZ'ers are not at all sentimental about these things. We raise sheep for food and wool and give thanks to God that both are so useful.; 17 September 2018 at 20:13
Leonore Winterer said...: SOmehow my mind easily seperates between 'oh, how cute!' and 'yum, so delicious!'. In fact, I tend to value animals that are both more than those that are just one of these things ;); 19 September 2018 at 21:39
Jo who can't think of a clever nickname said...: I did not know you ate lamb for Christmas Dinner! You learn something new every day.
I am not sentimental over farm animals, it's nice that these lambs can play freely and I do like seeing the free range piggies we have over here.; 22 September 2018 at 09:19
