When I was five years old my father brought home a lobster and let my brother and I play with it on the kitchen floor. I was pretty upset when I discovered my "new pet" was dinner. My mother was pretty mad at my father for that one.
And of course I find this hysterical! Lol.. We had a lot of farm animals and we had a rule, if the kids named it, we couldn't/wouldn't eat it.. :) - The visual of you and your brother playing with a lobster made me laugh out loud for real.
HA! I remember in middle school when we dissected frogs, they told us to name the frogs for some reason. But playing with your food- literally- is way worse.

ReplyDeletethat's a good rule. I can't remember if we named the lobster but I'm sure I probably did because I name everything.
DeleteYep I would NEVER be able to eat lobster if I were you (not that i eat it now...)
ReplyDeleteI don't eat lobster either and I get flashbacks when I see them in the supermarket.
