Have you ever witnessed an animal being killed, specifically for you to eat?

1 Answer

Answer :

Only fish. Our boys used to catch small lake trout on Lake Placid during the summer. My father cleaned them and my mother fried them up with a little butter. I thought of that primarily as a rare occasion when my dad connected with his grandsons in a direct, personal and simple way. The three bites of buttery trout we all got was a bonus and not very fraught with any other meaning.
