Carnivore

What with a recession, a new kitchen, and a wedding and all, we are trying to cut down on the basics, to save some cash.

I've been reducing the amount of meat we use by adding lentils or serving more vegetables, but Craig is struggling to cope - there is no nice way to put it. He can't cope, physically, mentally, or spiritually, without meat. Craig is a carnivore.

I remember making my yummy wedges once. Without bacon. Needless to say the fact that we need to save for a wedding is a minor miracle. Lesson learnt: serve meat.

We share the cooking. Craig sometimes is very anti-vegetables, and makes just meat. I'm serious. For example, one time Craig served up red wine marinated venison... and... that was it.

On top of this, I'm trying to keep healthy for the wedding, so went out for a walk with Jill the other night, leaving Craig with tea duty. When I returned, he'd made a massive salad... sweet huh?!

Guess what was in the salad? That's right, the salad had bacon and chicken through it. Yum?

I don't think I can dabble in vegetarianism anytime soon.
