Got Chicken?

Tonight, we had a rather nice dinner of local chicken, local BBQ sauce, home-grown beets, sauteed garlic scapes, and steamed rice.  Carving the chicken is my job and while doing so, I had the following conversation with our ‘children’:

Tucker:  “Are you cutting chicken up there?”

Matt: “Yes.”

Tucker: “Can I have some?”

Matt: “No.

Tucker: “Please?”

Matt: “I said No.”

Tim Tam: “Might I have some chicken?”

Matt: “No … wait, where the hell did you learn to beg?”

Tucker: “I taught him!”

Tim Tam: “Don’t make me come up there, human.”

They got chicken.

    It’s to mask the unbridled terror they bring upon us.
