I cannot eat it because not only is the body in my freezer, I've got his head mounted in my guest room (we don't have many guests - we call it the "Man Room"). Granted, the eyes are glass but they still stare out at me whenever I'm in that room. Creepy. My philosophy is that I do not eat "cute" food. Anything that started out cute doesn't get eaten. And BTW, my meat comes from stryofoam packages grown on trees! :-) We’ve got a freezer full of caribou that my husband shot.

But I draw the line at CORALLING. There will be no slaughtering in my future. I don't even like killing rodents and spiders! Needless to say, I've sworn off ranching and buying raffle tickets for the remainder of this lifetime. This was…. interesting, to say the least. But I draw the line at CORALLING.

The major fundraiser for the teen group was mucking out the show barns after the county fair. i have always felt that mucking is the perfect word for that job. And yeah, cow slushies is a good word for how that stuff starts out! But it might put you off slushies for the rest of your life!
