The Aftermath

So after the killing and skinning of the sheep last Saturday, the poor carcass remained dangling in our house up until yesterday. Before then, my mom had merely been chopping off pieces as necessary for the upcoming meal. Every home I've been to in the last week has been like this, an impromptu butcher shop. Our house is of modest size, however, and thus the corpse severely restricted mobility throughout the main hallway/kitchen area. Ironically enough though, it did make the whole place smell like bacon.

List of meals I have eaten in the past week:
- Liver kabobs wrapped in fat
- Cous cous with brains and other head matter
- Right front leg with potatoes and carrots
- Assorted kabobs (including heart and lung)
- Ribs (not BBQ)
- Stomach wrapped in more stomach

  2. actually, through years of experience they have gotten pretty good at cleaning blood off the floor. Practice makes perfect.
