p.s.  where does pigging out on a cat come down on the kosher scales?  *g*

i've heard of gimcracks and geegaws...the word i use is tsochskes.  i love that word.

the way you wrote that, i assumed that it meant you kept things separated, due to kosher restrictions.  my bad.   i've always found the concept of separating foods interesting, altho' it sounds like an awful lot of extra work for whoever is doing the cooking. 

me a vegan.  *snorts*  honey, you jest!  i loves my meats too much to be a vegetarian, let alone a vegan.  i think certain critters were put on this earth to be food for man; altho' i do believe in treating our food sources humanely.

i'm sorry if my assumption about you keeping kosher offended you; was *not* my intent.  i just got excited because i thought i had a window on another cool bit of knowledge; beats the heck out of reading about it in a book.  ((((((((alice))))))))))

how's abi-cat today?

isn't there a phrase for the 3 things that are prohibited?  something about the abomination and the something, something.  i know pork is one, shellfish is another but i can't remember the third. (you'd think it would be liver...the organ of detoxification)  and i understand why they were prohibited, then....because of lack of refrigeration and bad shellfish making you sick..and well...pigs are nasty.    altho', i do like this one saying, "if you're going to eat pork, let the juice drip from your chin."  i know it, but i don't remember who said it.
