Been There, Done That!

I know I haven't blogged in forever so I figured I'd catch up on a couple of tag posts. This one my Aunt Lucy tagged me on and I guess everyone in my family (at least my mom and Aunt Lucy) is adding one thing to the list at the end (and so far they seem to be animal themed things). I guess we just can't leave anything as it is.

Oh, and I tag all my blog leeches. If you have read my blog once or more in the last month but haven't ever left a comment I tag YOU...Leech.

I knew you would have lots of them high lighted....but I thought you served in a soup kitchen?\
How were those cow intestines, by the way?

Becca's Blog said...

No, I was going to work in a soup kitchen this Thanksgiving but somehow I got sucked into going to work instead.

The cow intestines looked, tasted and had exactly the texture you'd expect cow intestines to have. YUCK!

Battfam said...

You've never given blood? Are you sure? And what animal did you kill and prepare for eating?

Bobbi said...

Grrroooosss! Intestines?? I just saw a photo of Jared's stepmom's 72 inches of colon they removed from her and I cannot imagine a cows. I hope you got pictures and all.

Becca's Blog said...

Yes mom, I'm sure I've never given blood. They won't let me due to all the weird places I've been. I however will soon be SELLING my plasma so that should be good.

Oh, and I've caught and gutted (with a little help from Grandma B.) a fish before. Fish are animals, right?

And Bobbi...what the H?...72 inches of colon??? Does she have any left? And yes I got a picutre of me eating cow intestines, but I was on a mission and was in bad need of a haircut so I had sort of "SHE MULLET" thing going on so I don't share those pictures.
