The act of eating meat is usually offensive to a vegeterian, the act of eating vegetables is rarely offensive to a carnivore. Probably that should read "omnivore" instead of "carnivore". |

Cause they don't think you need meat. And the fact that you cook veggie for
them, means that in your heart of hearts, you know that people do not really need meat either. However, for most people, food is their most deeply rooted habit. For example, my wife really wants both meat and rice. So, I cook them for her. Personally, there have been years when I did not eat meat, so I know one can live very well without eating meat, but taking meat from my wife would make her so grumpy, that I would not even consider trying, except in the most dire emergency. I know she does not need it, but she sure wants it. Me? I need my pizza. Veggie? OK! Low fat? OK!, Whole Wheat? OK! No cheese? OK! Still, I want my pizza every so often. If you want me to be happy, bring me pizza and red wine every so often. Everyone has their food habits! Aaron "Mary Fisher" wrote in message t... "JCT" wrote in message oups.com... Good morning. It is still early here - 6:47am. I am just up and DH is still asleep. He will get up soon as he has choir at 8:30. We have a quiet day ahead. I have some paperwork to do for our local watershed organization and I will probably watch a Mariners game on tv while I knit a bit. We are soup eaters here. I often make a very hearty lentil soup. It has brown rice, lentils, tomatoes, carrots, onions and usually chicken stock. Sometimes I use a veggie stock if I am expecting to feed someone who doesn't do meats. Why is it that those of us sho do eat meats provide meatless meals for veggies but they don't provide meat for us? Mary |

VP We have a veggie daughter in law, she doesn't find meat eating offensive, doesn't even know why she doesn't eat meat and doesn't mind her children eating meat. But I always have to provide a special dish for her and she never does for us. I can't understand it. Mary |

Or, anchovies pizza!
Whoops! It is a warm and sunny day, so the kitchen is a bit warmer, that it has been, and my bread is about ready to bake. I am going to grab a bit of that dough and have an anchovies pizza for lunch! Sorry for all you folks with less than perfect weather today. But, we are going to pay for this fine weather when run out of water in August. The Dutch iris are going wild! And. yesterday there might have been 4 or 5 stalks of bearded iris blooming, but today there are 40 or 50. The perfume coming in my office window is wonderful. You can tell I am not working. I think I have spring fever. Aaron "Mary Fisher" wrote in message t... wrote in message . .. Cause they don't think you need meat.

People are weird about food and have some very strange habits related to it, the reasons why people do or don't eat/like things are incredibly varied in my experience and often seem to illogical to me. But I'm sure I have habits and preferences that seem odd to others too. VP |

Erin spun a FINE 'yarn': and for once it is actually still morning as I type this! 10:24 am to be precise and I am half-way through my first cup of tea for the day. Today it is green tea with lemon that I received as a Yule present from a not-so-little-anymore guy. I delivered most of my advertising circulars yesterday since I didn't have so many kilos this week, and now I can spend most of Sunday stitching beads onto variousl crocheted items. :-) What are y'all up to this fine morning? Erin http://arkivarie.livejournal.com/ Erin. . . Gooo-oood morning! My mood doesn't match the weather here in middle Tennessee, I'm in a good mood although the weather is... politely stated, crappy. I finished and filed taxes Friday evening, cleaned up some PC 'junque' Saturday, and IF the weather warms and dries enough, DH and I have to install a window this afternoon. Yesterday I placed an online order for more laceweight yarn, to make a couple of capes from "Knitting Essentials" (reprint of an *early* 1900's Butterick knitting book) and this morning I did a little knitting on one of the faroese shawls I'm working on. I also spent a little time with the yarn-umbrella and ball-winder. (I always end up re-winding from the ball-winder, I dunno why!) On the second pot of kaffe`, it's now almost 11AM here, I slept in till 7am this morning, what a slacker! LOL Have a great rest of the day, Hugs, Noreen Listen to me! Do NOT talk about taxes! I did ours today, and we have to pay in over 2k. I am not a happy camper. Higs, Katherine |

And I've been whining because I have to pay $355. But I knew it was coming, and I know what to do about it for next year. DH is getting around $1600 back, due in no small part to his RRSP contributions. And, guess what? I know many places where that $1600 can go (grin). Shelagh |
