I'm A Carnivore
Scene: Ed, Chef and I are watching Food Network. A commercial comes on that features many lovely images of cooking meat. Ed and Chef start to discuss this.
Chef: I want that meat.
Ed: Girls don’t eat meat.
Chef (simultaneously): Mom’s a girl and she eats meat!
Me (simultaneously): I’m a girl and I eat meat.
Ed laughs his butt off that we both reacted this way.
Me: I LOVE MEAT!
Chef: Put it this way, Mom. When it comes to meat eating, if we were dinosaurs, I’d be a Tyrannosaurus Rex and you’d be a Velociraptor.
I guess my love of meat is clear to the child!
