Exploring the pasture
First, a little history. I have mentioned that we had a bull that we had slaughtered back in September, I think. Well, my sister told a little white lie to my son, that T-Bone had gone off to get married and that is why he is no longer at her house.
Well, my son asked me the other day, "Mom, why did you want to get another baby calf?" I told him to raise him and let him get big and then we were going to take him to the slaughter house and have him butchered and eat his meat. He asked what a slaughter house was and I told him. He then states, "Well, when BarBQ grows up big, then we are going to take him to that "house" and have him butchered." LOL
Yesterday, my DH was making burgers to cook and my son is watching his dad prepare and cook the burgers. He tells my DH, "Dad, do you know that burgers are beef and that beef comes from cows?" My DH said that yes he knows this. My son then says, "I think that this beef came from T-Bone, before he went off and got married." LOL
My DH was telling me this story and was laughing so hard. He is only 4 and doesn't "quite" get the meaning of butchering yet.....LOL
He will learn, one day.
