my brother-in-law asked me once, at a holiday dinner where i was NOT partaking of the main course, "what? are you one of those people who kills innocent vegetables?" it was said affectionately, and i took it that way..... one of my favorite things to do, back in the days when i really was strictly vegetarian, was to cook up fancy big main courses, feed everyone and watch them scarf down--then REMIND them, at the end of the meal, that it had been meatless.... they never noticed, because it was good food!
but i don't understand why how people eat, or love, or choose to live is ever open to judgment by others..... to her dying day, my mother referred to the whole state of maine as, "that god-forsaken wilderness you lived in." (i lived in bangor, btw....) people! -- MaryChristine AIM / YAHOO: TenHouseCats MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 289856892
