It’s the eighth annual International Eat A Tasty Animal for PETA (EATAPETA) Day.
Today, as uber-commenter Alex Bensky likes to say, if it didn’t have a mother, don’t eat it. However, as I like to say: Eat meat. It pisses off PETA like nothing else.

Turkey and dressing microwave meal at work.
Raspberry chicken and havarti-stuffed jalapenos on the grill tonight.
(And if Myst keeps running under my feet while I’m walking, I may just eat her, too. Stupid kitten.)

And here’s an excellent reason to slam peta: http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=3116
So far I’ve had milk and a quiche. There will be something meaty for dinner tonight.

I have posted about IEATAPETA Day on both my site and at the esteemed likethedew.com.
So far today, I have consumed eggs (from exploited chickens) and cheese (from cows that have been enslaved to evil Dairy Farmers). Perhaps a nice lambie, duckie, or fishie for dinner… the cuter, the tastier!

To quote that eminent philospher and foot in the butt-er, Red Forman:
That’s not food. That’s what food eats
Words to live by.

Beer brat for lunch. Maybe even for dinner.

Yes, there was veal on the menu, from our favorite Italian place in NorVA. Also other formerly alive things on my friends’ plates.
Now I’m in a house with four cats, which is something else that PETA hates: Animals being kept as pets. Because everyone knows what a great life feral cats have compared with domestic ones.

What’s your favorite Italian place in NorVA?
I can’t find one that I wouldn’t rate right up (down) there with the Olive Garden or Carraba’s.
It’s so hard to find decent Italian food outside the northeast.
