Your gardener could give you goat meat in return for you letting him give you his
goat meat. Don't pull this "he's got a girlfriend" business, as everybody figures
that he's been Calvining your Coolidge all along anyway.

He would never kill a goat and I don't eat goat meat. Like I said... I can
do quite well on beans and rice. I just made some for tomorrow. Trying to
use up the last of the bulk brown rice. I know I bought it pre-Covid.

You should get the Hell out of Bothell, and move in with John. You two
could be the bestest beans and rice pals, and since John is a vegetarian,
he could let you have his meat ration. Of course, you *could* "gift" some
of it back to him.

Maybe Gary could join you.

GOOD! I won't be affected at all, being Vegetarian now!

We really need to move to culturing Clean Meat and stop victimizing animals since meat can be groups from animal meat stem cells.

Goat meat is too much work and she is not much of a cook. She doesn't
like anything and no one likes her cooking.

Careful, Julie! You might not be able to find rice. Why on earth would
you be "trying to use up" the brown rice if you think there is going to
be a food shortage? Please don't say you think brown rice "expires".
I'd be hanging onto that rice if things were looking so dire in my neck
of the woods.

If you live in the right place you can find cuts of goat meat; might be
in the freezer case near the cut up rabbit. Heh.

When she used to buy steaks she'd cook them all at once and then put
them in the freezer. I never did understand why she thought she needed
to do that, or who would want to eat a pre-cooked steak.

I've never bought goat but I've certainly eaten it. Cut into cubes,
marinated and then grilled like kabobs on skewers. Tasty!

I wasn't suggesting anyone screw a goat. I was suggesting that she
screw the goat herder/gardener, in return for goat meat. The whole
response was a joke, and I guess you didn't get the "Calvining your
Coolidge" reference. Then there's the thing about the symbolism of
goats as satyrs. It works from a few angles, but your mind seems to
have jumped right away to bestiality. Others might have found the
joke unfunny, but probably only you thought it suggested actual sex
with an animal.

I've smelled cooked goat, and I certainly have tasted goat cheese.
I don't eat mutton either.

Yes, I remember her saying that a few years back, and I thought it was
really weird, but IIRC she later denied that she had done that.

I thought it was usually done in a stew.

Julie, if he has no intent on goat meat, does he milk them?

Or does he just let them loose to help with pruning & lawn-mowing?

What kind of a sophomoric goofball repeatedly insults a fictitious

Meat does seem to be most expensive these days but I can't say if there
has been a resent increase. I have not bought much meat in the last
three months. I am not going to call myself a vegetarian, but my new
diet doesn't involve much meat. I have a small amount of beef about once
every three weeks. I have a small portion of chicken once or twice a
week, a couple meals with fish and the rest are vegetarian. We are
saving bundle on meat We are both losing weight, and my wife didn't have
much to lose.

No. Moving is not an option and the meat rationing is not just local, it's

Right. And I'm not going to. I'm on a limited diet due to gastroparesis. I
don't like most meat to begin with and the diet restricts what kinds of meat
I can eat/ Goat is not on the list.

Another lie. I never did that with steaks. It was pork.

The business Costco sells whole goats. I suspect that Winco and maybe even
Walmart has smaller cuts, but don't hold me to that.

You don'ty remember ME saying it as it never happened. I did cook a lot of
pork fior the freezer. Some cut I wasn't familiar with. The meat was bad so
I threw it out. My ex was the only person who ate steak. I rarely bought
steak. So who would I cook a bunch of steaks? I wouldn't.

Because it's old. I don't know how old, but prepandemic. There still is a
rice shortage here, at least of the type that I normally buy. I have bought
rice since then. I've been buying mostly white rice as it is easier to
digest, and Justin has been eating it. Prior, he wanted only brown.

Yep. I have a small pot roast in the freezer that was marked down. Need to
defrost and cook it. Not now though. We could lose power due to storms. I've
been buying up to 3 pounds of ground beef per week. That's the only beef. I
buy bacon and chicken when I can find the kind I want.

I mentioned the beef price some time ago. $50 and up for a very small roast.
$30 for a steak or two, depending on the size/cut/etc. Just normal meat. Not
the good stuff from Central market. That used to be around $30-35 for a T
Bone. Haven't been there at all during the pandemic.

What the heck do you know about me? I don't read the junk fiction that
you do. I just put it on the shelves. Maybe you could find something
juicy that *I actually wrote*. You know what Greg, the Queen of Female
Masturbation died recently. She gave me written permission to use the
following blurb on the cover, or in promotional materials for *Winter's
Present*.

"[Winter's sex words] rant was brilliant...If only more men (and women) thought like this our sex lives would be greatly improved."
--Betty Dodson, renowned sex educator and author of Sex for One and Orgasms for Two.

Betty did not read the entire novel, only an excerpt. Here is that excerpt in its entirety:

******************* "I think the scientific sex words are way hotter than slang. They're
more specific. That's why they make people squirm. You two are both a little
uncomfortable with me saying ejaculate. I know you are, and you need to not be.
It's something that male bodies do, and I like it, and I have orgasms. I don't just, "come."
It's more than that. We all have orgasms, and we don't just come to them, we have
them, and relish the feeling while it's happening. We go through the whole process, and
it's good." Winter found a parking spot. "Used to be, people were uncomfortable with
'vagina,' but now they use vagina when they really mean, 'vulva.' See? Vulva is a beautiful
word, but it's too beautiful. If I just had a tube for the semen to go in, and the baby to
come out, I wouldn't be what I am." Winter had parked, but no one was getting out.
"Saying vagina like that is insulting to women. It's like denying every other aspect of my
vulva, and I'm not OK with that. I'm not just some receptacle. My vulva is beautiful, and
you both love it. I don't want either of you to ever say pussy or even vagina unless you
are specifying vagina." Winter looked back at Ian, "I don't call your penis a cock. You're
not a rooster. People use euphemisms because they are ashamed, even if just a little.
Even if just a little isn't alright. I'm not ashamed that I enjoy my vulva, and Ann," Winter
craned her neck to look back at her, "I love every little part of your vulva, and both of you
feel that way about mine." Winter smiled, "I know you do. You show me, and it's glorious.
Don't ever diminish anything by using shame words. Clitoris is beautiful too. Clit sounds
cold, and like you're ashamed to say the real word, not either of you even, but everyone.
Shame words hurt women, and they diminish men. They make sex seem dirty, when it is
really the purest, cleanest thing there is, if you can take the dirtiness out of your mind,
and when I share my body with another person, there's nothing dirty, and that's the case
with you Ian, even with the money thing. If I thought having sex with you was icky, it
wouldn't have happened more than once. I won't ever let anyone take away my birthright,
and you never tried to, Ian. If you ever do, I'm gone, but I don't think you will."
*******************

When Betty died, I didn't bring it up on the NG. It wasn't relevant, but conjectures about my
character's attitudes about sexuality by clowns who haven't read the book are stupid. If
anyone has issues with words that I *actually wrote*, bring them on.

These are, of course, the words of the character in a fictional novel, but they are *my* words.
The book is rich in themes that folks find offensive, and that you could challenge me to
defend, but my critics are too lazy--if not too dense or emotionally fragile--to read the book.

80/20 ground beef is $4.69/lb. here. Too bad I can remember my
university days when I could get ground beef 3#/1$ sometimes 5 for a
dollar.

Panic buying. We're being told to stay home and that will include going to
the grocery store. We're being told that the grocery store is a hotbed of
Covid. So far, we're only being told (in this area). The total lockdown is
expected to be announced on Mon. Last time we were on lockdown, nobody was
delivering here.

What does that even mean? I bought specific meat at Albertsons based on the
recommendation of someone who told me it was "really" good. This person took
some of said meat to where my dad was living. My dad reported that it was
inedible which is exactly what my husband said.

I have mentioned that I have frozen ground beef and chicken in the past, for
taco salads. No complaints there. I might sometimes save a bit of leftover
pot roast for soup. I currently have some of the lemon chicken breast in the
freezer. Justin didn't eat any and there was too much for me. I'm sure it
will be fine in a soup or mixed with lemon potatoes.

My mom used to give me $1 and send me to the store for a pound of ground
beef. I was allowed to keep the change. There was always change, even if was
only enough for a couple of gumballs or penny candy.
