Unbeknown to them, this was probably their last meat meal in this kitchen.
They look so happy - their last pepperoni bagel bites (thanks to Aunt Julie and Uncle Mat, we raided their freezer for a quick meal), in our kitchen.
John and I have had many
discussions about how we are going to deal with the whole meat issue, or should I say meatless issue, with the girls. We spend hours discussing what to say and when they could have it and all that other
mambo jumbo adults think are so important. So far not once have the girls said anything about missing the meat. However, I am sure there will come a time when they say they want
hamburgers for supper, and I have to explain why we will not have hamburgers at the house. We have decided not to make the girls
vegetarians though. They will go meatless here, but if we are out (which happens rarely), they may order meat. What is interesting though, is if we suggest a meatless entree, like cheese pizza, they will choose that. We are secretly hoping they will take our lead and go meatless too :)
Don't they look so happy!
