The Converts

Well, we'll see how long this lasts.

The girls have decided (after having our cows butchered yesterday)

that they are now all officially Vegetarians.

At dinner tonight, they picked all the chicken out of their pasta

and solemnly swore they'll forever avoid meat.

 Even Kean seemed to get in on the act.

He spit out all of his pasta

and would only eat bread and salad (drenched in Italian dressing)!

He's been hardly eating for a week.

In fact, he was down two pounds when weighed at the hospital yesterday.

Personally, I think it's a combination of the Chemo he gets that makes 

everything taste metallic and that

he probably has a bit of a sore throat.

Greer, Byron and Holland are all being bugged by a sore throat at night.

It will be interesting to see if this Vegetarian thing sticks.

Greer, from day one, has hated meat with the glaring exception

of bacon, ham and ribs.

She's tried repeatedly to convince us that those three items

aren't really meat.

Go figure.

Maybe I'll be mean and really put their resolve to the test

in a week or so... by serving all the girls their all time favorite:

Ribs.

Cackle, cackle.
