    I like to make shepherd’s pie with leftover roast lamb. Yum yum yum.

    I think the correct term for this is:

    "Perfectly normal behaviour for an opportunistic omnivorous carrion-eater".

    Which is what we are.

    There's probably nothing more natural that spending days chewing a carcass.

    Except, perhaps, smashing the bones with a rock to extract the marrowbone. Om nom nom.

    I bought a monster chicken at the local farm for Sunday lunch.
    This will be day 3 of chuck for lunch.

    Chicken, mushroom and tarragon pie today

    Tomorrow will be dedicated to making stock (and probably the next day too).

    Cold Roast Beef... yum!

    I think it's a quantum thing. The huge gravitational gradient produced by your figure, creates interference patterns in the electromagnetic spectrum. This has the effect of focussing the light in different ways.

    Alternatively, you only think you're large. In which case you are anorexic.

    I watched a really good show about beef farming in the UK last night on the History channel.

    A lot about how the breeds got smaller and then larger again over the last century. About how fat went out of fashion, and then came back in, and how now people are looking at other things to quantify quality.

    At new years, same again, but this time with lamb. munch munch munch.

    And its carried on, every blooming weekend. Last week the missus bought a joint of beef that was twice the size that we needed. She said Its all got to go by wednesday night.
