My meat-eater needs meat at the two meals we eat each day. (We ‘fast’ from after supper until Noon the next day.) Sometimes we have a ‘Popcorn & Movie Night.’ I won’t lie. ;)

Once in a while I catch him gnawing on one of the dog chew bones, LOL! (Just kidding.)

He’s an awesome hunter/fisherman, so we are never short of meat. We also raise a beef steer each season and just found out our neighbor sells his pasture-raised hogs, so we bought a half this October.

Work is progressing on the barn re-model which will include a chicken coop. Yay! I’ve really missed having laying hens. We had to stop work on the coop as we had an ‘Oopsie!’ pregnancy this Bear Season and now have a Mama Dog and six pups that needed more room. (A new ‘Puppy Pen’ was going to be re-built, but AFTER the coop was finished.)

At least she was smart enough to get knocked up by a pedigreed Champion Bear Dog. I’ll give her credit for that. ;)

“We ‘fast’ from after supper until Noon the next day”

Is that for health reasons? I’ve been reading about those intermittent fasting plans.
