An adorable dilemma

Today we went out to see Sue Miller's farm. You know, the person who I mentioned about raising rabbits? Well, they had a new litter a while ago, and we got to see their huge plot of land (do want), and their adorable baby bunnies (also want). Unfortunately, I'm not sure I could kill and eat one of the fluffy little creatures, nor do I know if I would even like rabbit meat.

So, we might see if Sue has any rabbits to spare after she butchers her's. Its her first time raising rabbits, too, so it'll be a learning experience for all.

As for the baby bunnies, they were adorable, fluffy, tiny, and the last thing you'd think of as dinner.

When they were not squirming or freaking out, holding the baby bunnies was easy, letting the little ones doze of in your arms, and petting their soft, soft fur.

When they were squirming and freaking out, holding the baby bunnies was very, very, hard. You didn't want to hold them too tight or hurt them, but they would squirm and squirm, and all their sleek fur made them hard to hold onto and stop from jumping away. Like holding one of those long, skinny, slippery water balloons. Except this water balloon had claws. And rabbits aren't like chickens or sharks or toads. Sharks and toads will stand still if you flip them on their back (sharks even go into tonic immobility), and chickens will act similarly, calming down if you hold them side-ways. Rabbits will not.

Sue was kind enough to give us a tour around the property and some tips about raising meat rabbits. A successful day of meat rabbit information-gathering, I'd say. And a Nick-N-Willy's pizza for lunch makes it even better.

Weather-wise, today was the same as yesterday -- rainy. I'm sure the plants are getting a bit tired of it by now. I don't mind, though.

Well, that wraps up this unintentionally late blog post. I'll write a blog post about why I always forget to write blog posts sometime. 'Cause I heard you liked blog posts so I put a blog post in your blog post so you can read blog posts while you read blog posts.

Alright, that's it, I should really not write blog posts this late.
